Worked for luffy. The stretchy people in hero comics are usually seen as side characters who are meh, even Reid Richard's is mostly known for his intelligence over his stretchyness.
Mrs. Incredible has those dangerously thicc thighs
could she have just given herself a thicc ass using her extraordinary powers?
In the Ultimate comics Reed actually uses his stretchyness to make himself even more intelligent by creating new wrinkles and pathways in his brain with his powers. He fixes his astigmatism too by just stretching his eyes back in the right shape resulting in better than 20/20 vision. It's kind of weird comic book science but I think it's a cool evolution of stretchy powers, truly controlling and manipulating the plasticity of his body on a conscious level.
Yea that's actually dope, I love taking mundane sounding powers and pushing them to the extreme.
How can Superman's power of creating a miniature Superman from his palm be made into a cool power and not something he doesn't even have anymore because it was lame?
Tbf, that's Oda's imagination doing overtime. Reed Richards never gets past the Gum-Gum Pistol stage, I think his power would be considered way cooler if he hit Dr. Doom with a Gum-Gum Elephant Gatling or busted out Snakeman. It's not just about making them a serious main character, mangaka seem a lot more inventive with utilizing the potential for powers than their Western counterparts.
Yea I attribute it to the audience. Manga evolved as a mature and mainstream medium that wasn't just for kids. Comics, at least back then didn't evolve as much and as quickly. Video games as well until the last handful of years.

Primo stuff right there.
While he doesn't get a lot of attention, PlasticMan is considered to be pretty dangerous in DC comics. He has a pretty cool run in the Injustice Comics (released alongside the games) .

Super-Skrull can be pretty effective when he's not jobbing to the FF.
