Looks like the Amazons are going to force Elastic Man into some Herculean efforts (possibly Sapphic, depending on their mood) 😉. Dear Acropolis forum . . .

Going to give himself road rash with burning all that rubber

I'd say he'll end up with a racing slick at that rate.

BTW, back in the day user manuals were more likely used to prop up those old CRTs to a better angle than actually read or even referred to on occasion.

2026-09-07 22:00 Has Elastic Man always been a they/them or is this a recent change?

I'm not particularly opposed to they/them pronouns, and it would even make a lot of sense for shapeshifting characters, but previously Elastic MAN (previously known as as Elasti-LAD) was always shown to be using he/him pronouns. And given that his name actually declares a clearly defined gender, instead of being something neutral like Power Plastic, it just feels a bit odd. I had to reread it twice before I realized what the intent was in the text; it felt more like a typo than a character identity.

When I wrote this page last year (https://www.patreon.com/posts/evil-inc-week-of-81844055), Elastic Man offered to assume one of several identities to help Mr. Invincible talk through his problem. Some were men, and others were women. In the end, Elastic Man says that he's all of those identities (and more). That's when I started really thinking about Elastic Man as non-binary. (And, to be fair, it was in the back of my mind even before that.) I decided it would be fun to write him with they/them pronouns as a reflection of that.

That's a question I had to answer for myself as I decided how to handle Elastic Man's identity (see my response to Drawingbored). So, when I started reading about it, the answer I got was that someone who calls themselves a man can still be non-binary. Gender is personal and doesn’t always fit neatly into categories. Some people might feel connected to being a man in certain ways—like socially or culturally—but still feel that "non-binary" better describes their overall experience of gender. It’s really about what makes for the best story, and I felt this was the most genuine way to take Elastic Man's character.

I'm fully supportive of you making EM non-binary with They/Them pronouns. But that means you have a typo in the last panel with dialog. "In retrospect, I probably shouldn't have given HIM" --Tlaero
