Heroes count their blessings: ‘I’m thankful for my Deus Ex Machina belt, and little green shorts’

Tim Leong points out I-Mockery’s list of “What Some of Your Favorite Superheroes Are Thankful For!”

A few highlights:

Spider-Man: “Gee, I’m thankful I didn’t do anything stupid like reveal my secret identity to the world on live television, because then Aunt May and M.J. would be in grave danger! Oh wait, I did. DAMN YOU, QUESADA!!! DAMN YOU!!!”

Robin: “I’m very, very thankful to be spending Thanksgiving this year with the Teen Titans, and far, far away from Wayne Manor, and Batman… Frank Miller makes him touch me.”

Captain America: “I’m thankful that I’m wise enough to stand by the ideals that our flag represents rather than the flag itself. Oh, and that I’m not a government tool like that dork Iron Man.”

Aquaman: “I’m thankful for all of my fans.”

    The Wolverine giraffe neck line was entertaining. I’m curious to know if when writing the Invisible Woman line if the writer meant to put the verb “sue” in there:
    “I’m thankful that ever since the accident, shoplifting has never been easier! So sue me, I like nice things.”

    For a split second Susan Storm was talking like Hulk.

    It’s okay, Orin. You’ll always have me.
