Unknown radio waves that "defy physics" are emanating from deep beneath the Antarctic ice.
Antarctica has some of the world's clearest skies, which makes it the ideal location for eavesdropping on the universe. The Antarctic Impulsive Transient Antenna, or ANITA, is carried by a NASA balloon that hovers far above the continent.

Superman: A Celebration of 75 Years
I'm the kind of guy who spends all day brooding—about life, death, the nature of consciousness, AI, future prophecies, alien intelligence, AI again (because let’s face it, that rabbit hole never ends). The heavy stuff. The kind of thoughts that turn a normal afternoon into an existential crisis wrapped in a headache.

Invented Marvel Characters: Reverb and Galileo
Both once researchers funded by Empire State University, the villains called Galileo and Reverb were once scientists focusing on light and sound respectively. Galileo was the lead researcher trying to develop liquid glass to be used for lenses whose shape and magnification levels could be drastically changed. Reverb was his assistant whose expertise in sound waves was initially thought to be the key to manipulating the liquid glass. After hitting a wall using sound waves Galileo started using electricity instead of sound to try to manipulate the lenses. With this change Reverb still acted as Galileo's assistant but to a lesser extent and had freedom to conduct his own sound based research involving nanotech. Removing fuses so they could draw enough power for Galileo's project during the work day and Reverb's research in the evenings they worked somewhat peacefully for months. Yet as time went on the lack of results led to threats of pulled funding and they started working on their respective projects day and night simultaneously. One day the vast amount of electricity used triggered a surge and an explosion lodging nanotechnology into Reverb's skin and knocking Galileo into his liquid glass. After being pulled from the fire by Spider-Man and receiving medical treatment they attempted to return to their research without funding. However they soon shifted their focus to studying their own physiology. Over time Galileo's body went fully translucent and Reverb could generate sound from speaker cone shapes that appear on his body at will. Shortly after they emerged as supervillains robbing for money and scientific equipment.

Invented Marvel Characters: Contra
Growing up my dream job was to be a comic book artist/writer. But with very little artistic talent that dream died pretty quickly. Now I do my best to bring my characters to life using apps like swordmaker, armormaker, you doodle and cut me in. They don't always turn out looking very good but I get more excited about the concepts and stories behind the characters than how well I can make the character look good. Sometimes my characters are from cultures I am not a part of because I think it fits their story or other aspects about them. I am not a cultural expert but at the very least I hope no one is upset by me using aspects of cultures I'm not a part of and find interesting. That said below is my Marvel inspired character Contra.
