Oh Geez
Just got back from the Doctor...my youngest and brashest offspring decided to go rock wall climbing without a harness...and has managed to possibly fracture a tiny bone in her foot. It has a fancy french name, which I can't remember, so crutches and a walking boot for now.
Just ducky.
How is it that Super Heroes never seem to get hurt when they are falling off of buildings, through brick walls, off of moving cars, and so on and so forth? At least Hawkeye seems to be permanently sporting bandaids lately, which is something. Green Lanterns can use their rings to heal themselves, or they have Soranik Natu.
Superman and Wonder Woman don't seem to have these problems, and I would imagine that Alfred spends a whole lot of time sewing up Bruce Wayne, but still!
The villains don't seem to get hurt much either. Just once I think I'd like to see that a bunch of villains can't go out and terrorize anyone because they are recuperating from having a building fall on top of them or something. Is there a villain union? Healthcare? These sorts of things bother me. Possibly because I have no life.
But anyway...stay off of rock walls! And tall buildings.

Poor girl, hope she heals up quickly, I know how awkward walking with crutches can get, especially if you're very active to begin with.
She's handling it well, all things considered, but she works in a restaurant, so that's...awkward. But thank you James.
Fortunately young people seem to heal quickly.
Didn't some Marvel title (Daredevil, maybe?) repurpose Night Nurse, a "girls" comic from the '70s, as running a health clinic for heroes?
I do vaguely remember that...and I thought that it was a good idea. Just like Damage Control was a good idea. Heck there should be an entire industry of support facilities for Super Heroes!
