      To get to the other side!

      No, wait…

      To hold his pants up?

      SO the Shocker gets killed in a tragic train accident?!?!?!

      Oh wait…its a Marvel book. The cover has absolutely NOTHING to do with the damned book!!!

      Which pisses me off greatly

      And the Shocker isnt about to get hit by that train; that train is about to get hit by the Mother Lovin Shocker :)

      Doesn’t he absorb physical force?

      If so, he could be preparing for one big strike.

      Perhaps he’s getting into performance art. The driver, not to mention the passengers nearby, could well be traumatised by what’s about to happen. That’s pretty shocking.

      Bishop absorbs energy.

      I think Shocker’s suit lets him absorb physical force.
