Seems like fertile ground for coming up with something fun and interesting … a whole shadow universe that barely touches ours … but I don’t think I’ve ever seen it.

    yes, they’re an extremely common sci-fi presence in comics, movies, video games, pretty much any half-science dimensional thing you need to happen that can’t be explained.

    the movie 2012 is about neutrinos going crazy after a solar flare, I’m having trouble finding the countless examples of neutrinos being used in comics because apparently a team called “the neutrinos” made their way into the TMNT universe at some point.

    but yeah, it’s pretty popular to hear neutrinos did this or that in sci-fi premises because of their omnipresence and weird behavior and not really understanding them.

      So the creators themselves named their (super?)hero team after particles that are so insubstantial and ineffective that 99.8% of the entire universe will never even acknowledge their existence?

      Brütal.
