    Probably the same way you figure out what super power you get from a devil fruit when you eat it, or what power you got if you use the omnitrix to turn into something, automatically downloaded into your brain when you get it. Other option is, Charles prob read his mind or something, gave a scan to figure it out.

    Defeating Doctor Doom was impressive, but she had the help of many, many squirrels. When she defeated Thanos, she did it with the help of only Tippy Toe. Remember that the Watcher confirmed that Squirrel Girl and Tippy Toe defeated the real Thanos, not a clone, robot, or simulacrum, and by doing so, saved the multiverse. I am still waiting for Milana Vayntrub to play her in Live Action.

    Did you do ANY research? Goldballs later became Egg, and he became one of The Five on Krakoa, essential to their cloning secret of kamikaze missions. Each egg was filled with raw genetic material, so they just needed to download the DNA of whoever died, then Cerebro would download their last daily memory upload, Tempo would age them to proper age, and Hope would then activate their mutant genes. And you come for Chuck, you come for the LEGION! Dude married a girl who could split herself into three bodies and she claims she could still barely keep up with him! He's also good buddies with Tenzil, too! While Chuck and Tenzil made the cut for the Legion, Color Kid did not, but was a founding member of the SUBSTITUTE LoSH. His powers were mostly played for laughs, as was the rest of the team, but Geoff Johns changed that by binding the powers to his already insane "Emotion Corps" that he expanded the Green Lantern Corps into, what is it, 11 different Corps, now? (ROYGBIV, White, Black, UltraViolet, etc) Also, at some point, Infectious Lass "accidentally" infected him with a gender reversing virus, so he is now she, but I understand prefers nb? and you thought Sean/Shvaughn Erin was confusing! I'm glad you used 1970s art for Squirrel Girl, who was pretty much forgotten until the 2000s. Also, she soloed THANOS. Even the Watcher confirmed it "was not a clone, robot, or other impersonator, but the REAL Thanos!" Her "secondary" ability is being able to defeat anyone who tries to fight her.

    Not entirely fair to Bouncing Boy - combined with a Legion flight ring, he could be surprisingly effective against projectiles and battering opponents (as long as they're not Daxamites or someone in that league, he can just thump them into unconsciousness.) And he and his wife were very effective at running, and teaching at, the Legion Academy. A big part of the appeal of the Legion is that a lot of its members have relatively weak powers but work well as a team, especially when well written - I have undying hate in my heart for what Bendis did to the Avengers, but he was, surprisingly, really good on the Legion.
