Talk:Gingold

Wasn't Gingold effect temporary?
This article currently claims that Gingold gave Ralph permanent powers. I don't think that is correct, except perhaps for the post-Flashpoint continuity.

I don't know whether the post-Flashpoint universe even has Gingold in any form, but the Earth-One continuity at least had Ralph needing to ingest Gingold periodically in order to keep his enlongating powers.

It was a plot point in several stories, most notably in Detective Comics Vol 1 456-457, and it is also reflected in Ralph Dibny (New Earth)'s article. According to that 1976 storyline, the Gingold's effect needs daily renewal, and Sue is allergic to it. LuisDantas (talk) 20:25, September 8, 2016 (UTC)
