Ronda Rousey on Graphic Novel, 'The Palm' Concept, and Superhero Fights

Promoting 'Expecting the Unexpected'

• 🌟 Ronda Rousey was interviewed at New York Comic Con to promote her new graphic novel, 'Expecting the Unexpected'.
• 📚 The book is described as a kick-ass graphic novel about a pregnant mom with a bounty on her head.

The 'One Slap a Year' Concept

• 💡 Rousey proposes a societal de-escalation concept: 'The Palm', where everyone is allowed one open-hand slap per year.
• 💬 This idea, she believes, would encourage people to behave more civilly as they wouldn't know if someone had already used their 'slap'.
• 🎯 The concept is likened to a 'punch card' or 'The Purge' for physical altercations.

Hypothetical Superhero Fights

• 💥 In a Comic-Con lightning round, Rousey assessed her ability to defeat various villains in a fight.
• 🃏 She confidently stated she could beat The Joker and The Penguin, even under hypothetical naked conditions.
• 💥 Similarly, she believes she could defeat Harley Quinn and Lara Croft due to their lack of superpowers.
• 🎯 Rousey would only struggle against characters with powers like lasers or those with abilities like Cyclops.

Childhood Superhero Aspirations

• 💭 As a child, Rousey fantasized about being superheroes like Superman and Rogue.
• 🤔 She reflects that while Rogue's power-stealing ability seemed cool as a child, it would be a curse in adulthood due to the inability to touch anyone.
