It's heartbreaking. He's just sitting in bed pointing his puny, little human finger at things waiting for them to spark into life or melt or something."</p> <p>Lawyers for the family are said to be preparing a case against Marvel comics and universal pictures for placing unrealistic expectations on the boy. </p>
