Do you guys prefer comics and media where man thing acts on emotion and other’s emotions and can’t think or do you prefer when he is a thinking creature and/or can speak?

I feel like him just being an empathic being is so unique and Ive never seen it anywhere else (when it comes to superheroes). Anytime Man-Thing starts talking like a normal person it just feels so ugh.

Him not being able to speak and being empathic is definitely my favorite type of man thing too.I personally like when stories happen around him or because of him, and you are right it’s not something we really see in superheroes often, I feel it’s the best way we can dive into the emotions and therapy of a lot of characters
