*PsychoactivePowers: Revealed in the Creator/WarrenEllis run; After the Stamford disaster, Robbie discovered [[DiscardAndDraw his powers had changed]] and now only worked when he was in pain. Cue the iron maiden styled combat suit. Except, Doc Samson pointed out that people who cut themselves process pain abnormally; the adrenaline rush of self-mutilation triggers an endorphin reaction, in effect making them ''high''. Thus, his powers have the same trigger as always; he can't use them unless he's happy. As the FunPersonified character he had been before ComicBook/CivilWar, it makes some sense that this had previously not been noticed. Discovering this helps him start overcoming his depression.
