Other Versions
Other versions of Plastic Man's son have appeared in comics and animation.
- The 1966-1968 Plastic Man comic book series starred Eel O'Brian, Jr. as the new Plastic Man. In issue #7, it is revealed that he was born the non-super powered son of Plastic Man and an unnamed brunette wife. As a toddler, he drank the same acid that had give his father super powers. As an adult, he became the new Plastic Man and was romantically involved with Micheline "Mike" DeLute III (who would later re-appear as the girlfriend of Offspring in the Kingdom Come continuity). During the course of the series, Eel Jr. teamed with the Inferior Five, which established the continuity of this series on Earth-Twelve.
- The 1979-1981 The Plastic Man Comedy/Adventure Show animated series introduced Baby Plas as the son of Plastic Man and his blonde wife Penny during the show's second season. Baby Plas was born with the same powers as his father. The character was featured in his own "Baby Plas" cartoon segments, as well as "Plastic Family" cartoon segments with his father, mother, and Hula-Hula (his father's best friend). His formal birth name is not revealed in the series.
- The 2008-2011 Batman: The Brave and the Bold animated series featured Baby Plas in the episode titled "Long Arm of the Law!". In this series, Baby Plas is the son of Plastic Man and red-haired wife Ramona. He is also cared for by Plastic Man's best friend Woozy Winks (who had been replaced by the Hula-Hula character in the prior animated series). Like the prior version of Baby Plas, he inherited his father's stretching powers. Likewise, his formal birth name is not revealed.

Famous quotes containing the word versions:
“The assumption must be that those who can see value only in tradition, or versions of it, deny mans ability to adapt to changing circumstances.”
