So there's some science taking place behind the heroes and their abilities. Maybe not from Marvel, but scientists are defending our heroes! First is the material of Ironman's suit. First it was iron, heavy and not maneuverable. So he upgraded to what eggheads can reasonably justify as nitinol which is strong and lightweight. Furthermore what may sound like comic mumbo jumbo with Stark combining elements to make an element has actually been done a few times by scientists. An explanation that was thought up for the healing abilities of Wolverine, Captain America, and Black Widow came in the form of souped up macrophagecells that handle antigens and rebuilding after an injury. The final theory didn't try to relate their powers to the real world, but instead applies real world physics to Captain America's oppression deflector. It was theorized that the energy that vibranium "adsorbs" is converted to light energy.
I always like it when fiction is theoretically probable! Unfortunately I can't analyze much from an analysis. Their theories weren't stupid and far fetched. They were put in a way that everyone can understand what they mean without feeling stupid. Overall a well thought out, well executed analysis of possibilities in Marvel's fantastical universe. I guess that's why I like Marvel more than DC, they have fun then let smart people sciencify certain parts later, while DC tries so hard to explain everything that the story is lost to exposition.
