Let just hope that Mike Tyson isn't the special guest voice actor...I always think people like that seem to have soprano voices...it bad to think that way to stereotype but wouldn't shock me

Hmm... not sure if this has been asked before, but which came first, the crazymad powers, or the tattoo? Did he develop this ability, and the tattoo enhances it? Or did he get this tattoo to help him focus? And does the White Lotus Society have a plan for taking him down?

Combustion Man critics are jumping to conclusions about his relevance in the plot.

^^Okay, after reading all this, I think I'm not the only one who thinks Metal/Combustion Man will go down easily??? I was worried at first that everyone was freaking out about him, but some other people seem to be thinking along the same lines as I have. Although the strangeness and suddenness factors of his attack caught the Gaang off guard, I think that once they're more prepared they'll defeat this guy pretty easily. Especially if the eye-beams are his only trick. If he can do lots of other unique firebending, then maybe he'll be more of a challenge, but otherwise... All they have to do is attack him from multiple directions. If his beam just shoots straight out, they can easily overwhelm him with three attacks coming from different directions. Either that, or Toph or Aang can bend the earth underneath him, rather than simply throwing earth at him. Knock out the bottom, break his stance. He'll fall like anybody else. The fact that he has no background and has said nothing makes him pretty disposable at this point, and I hope it stays that way. Season 3 is busy enough without spending a lot of time on him. Although I do think Combustion Man is kinda sexy though....*Has thing for muscular men with nicely-trimmed beards*. Although the metal arms and legs might cause some chafing, so maybe not... -- SpiritBender

Yeah, if they ganged up they could probably beat him without too much trouble. Though he does look rather buff, so I suppose he still wouldn't be a pushover minus the explosions.
But honestly I think that Zuko might beat him...sort of to make up for sending him in the first place.
@blue Chibi--It sounds like the explosions were accidental and he couldn't control them, which is how he blew off his arm and leg. He didn't try to get this power. So the tattoo was probably just a focus he got to control it.

Maybe Combustion Man's real name is...Gigi. HAHAHA. Sorry, wanted a very girly name for him. XD I hope that when he speaks his voice is really high piched like a little girl. Now that would be scary...

I think Combustion Man's weakness will be mobility. He can't be attacked head on because not only does his attack destroy theirs but it usually keeps going. Earthbending the ground below him wouldn't really work because besides the limits of distance when earthbending he would be blowing your face off in the meantime.
He has a metal arm and leg that greatly inhibit his movement. He has no control over them, they are just prosthetics made of metal so I can see Aang continuing to use airbending against him since it kept letting him escape quickly this episode. Regardless his eye beam is so powerful and fast he seems unstoppable.
Where are the combustion man ships? Combustion man x Azula anyone? A: Thats a sharp outfit CM. CM: ... A: Its so sharp you could puncture the hull of an empire class battle ship leaving thousands to drown at sea. CM: ...
A: Give me the tour of the house. CM: ...
CM: ... A: HAHAHAHAH
A: Your arms look so strong. CM: ... A: Together we will be the strongest couple in the entire world! CM: :shoots eyebeam:

Here is a yaoi crack shipping, Bombustion Mani, Bumi + Combustion Man. Now when I think about it, Combustion Man may be the character that comes out of the closet then Azula.

The Combustion Man himself takes time from his valuable schedule to post here in his thread! Good to have you aboard, sir.

Guys, Toph would never kill someone, except maybe those countless Earth Kingdom Royal Guards who never stood a chance, and that they could have easily bypassed in 2.18, the Earth King.
Anyways, I notice that his firebending does indeed exert from his head, so my plan to defeat the combustion man is that you cut off his head. You see, if you cut off CM's head, he can't firebend and is virtually immobilized. Go get em, gaang! Knock his block off!
Genius, huh? It's so obvious now!

I believe combustion man will instruct Aang on firebending.
