The unfortunate side of Plastic Man's powers
Looking over some of the great Jack Cole's work on Plastic Man in the 1940s, something occurred to me.We see Plas eating and drinking occasionally. So when he pulls a stunt like this:
Well, wouldn't the natural digestive gases found in the intestines be forced out through their logical exit?

"No, boss-- that wuz me, I had chili for lunch.")
