[edit]- Whirl's packaging bio notes that he is armed with four incendiary-shell cannons and a photon beam rifle. This suggests that the writers confused the toy's four-barreled photon beam rifle with its more Gatling gun-like shell cannon. This change was reflected in both Whirl's unpublished Marvel Universe profile[1] and his Dreamwave More than Meets the Eye profile.
