A thread was made to remove Electro's lightning, and the justification is that Electro doesn't have the Attack Potency of a real lightning. Well, this is really dumb, since that's a really dumb criteria the page has. I don't want to antagonize anyone, but I don't think Spino really watched the movie. The Lightning Feats page has way more criteria than just attack potency, and who the hell judge if this is electricity or not by ******* attack potency?
"having an (electro)magnetic field" It does, and actually, since Peter's web shooters were destroyed in the first fight by the lightning, Gwen had the idea of use magnetism to avoid this, and it also protected Peter from the electricity.
"flowing through conducting materials" It does, water and metal is affected by his lightning. And Peter's web also.
"being shown to actually move with a speed similar to lightning" I don't know how the page expect us to prove this, since that's what we are trying to prove by other stuff, but Electro's lightning actually does move like real lightning, for us they are "instantaneous", just like real lightning. Even in slow motion scenes, his lightning is fast. See here for more.
"making muscles of affected beings contract" I don't know if that's the case, but Peter couldn't move when Electro used his lightning, not even his figers properly.
"the character being able to manipulate real electricity or electromagnetism in general" Wow no shit I didn't know Electro could use New York's electricity to power up, and also a ******* electric power plant that Max himself created. And the only reason Peter fought him was that Electro was absorbing Times Square energy. And also the entire New York energy in the end. Electro can also turn into lightning, like in the video I linked and when him and Harry invaded the Oscorp building.
Hell the point of the character is to use real lightning and electricity, and everything they used to downgrade this was just attack potency? Nah lol, he has more feats and the lack of AP isn't the reason to downgrade his lightning. Even if you want to say something about AP, I don't think lightning can do half of what Electro's lightning did here.
