Does Castle have super healing powers???


He's been hurt and bleeding enough times to have donated blood to six elephants. Is he a mutant with healing powers like Wolverine?

reply

No hes the victim of poor writing.

Gotcha

I started to wonder that myself. I used to read those comics and I started to think hard about what I missed regarding his evident super-healing abilities that they displayed in this show.

reply

I guess they wanted to portray him as someone who won't quit, no matter the adversities, but they did go a bit overboard.

reply

Every hero in action movies has this. Its not suppose to be realistic.

reply

it's not supposeD

reply

He's based on a comic character and his story is set in a world where Norse gods and talking raccoons exist.

Sure, the show was a more grounded than anything else we've seen in the MCU so far, but it's not exactly meant to be 100% realistic.

reply

Racoons do talk in real life though. They talk to me all the time. Mostly about saving the bees and going back to their planet in the Andromeda Galaxy. Or something like that.

reply

Ask them to stop rooting through my trash cans, please.

reply

They are just looking for signs you're a terrorist. Racoons are actually CIA agents.

reply

Well then I'm in trouble.

They broke into my tent once camping and took all our meat and bread. We were left with half a tent and some eggs.

reply

If it should even be remotely realistic, he should be down for 2+ months after each episode. :P

reply

The comics were similar. I liked to read it thinking he wasn't in the marvel universe, but at the same time I always figured he had some mild measure of super power that no one talked about.

reply

I will say the scene where Billy shoots him in the head was going a little too far. No way he or anyone could survive that.

reply

It was a grazing shot.

reply

You mean a cow shot him? Get it, grazing? Like cows grazing in grass. I think I just won worst joke of the year?

reply

I like a good pun. And a bad pun for that matter.

reply

its the browsing shots you have to worry about.

reply

No offense but getting shot in the left side of your head above your ear is not a grazing shot. The bullet would've gone into his brain and damaged it.

reply

It didn't go in. It creased the side of his head.
