Everyone could soon have the powers of Doctor Octopus

Doctor Otto Octavius may have been a power-mad scientist bent on world domination and the utter ruin of his nemesis, Spider-Man, but the guy had some surprisingly cogent thoughts on prosthetics development.

And in the near future, we'll be strapping on extra appendages whenever we need a helping hand -- or supplemental third thumb.
