Katie Power has taken over Nate Crosby’s blog over at Marvel.com. Hilarity ensues, when assistant editor Jordan White tries to explain comics to her:
KATIE: Well, why come are most of ‘em about whiny guys wearin’ masks an’ stuff?
JORDAN: Ah, so you read Nate’s header. How to explain this… Well, most comics are about Super Heroes. You know what super heroes are, right?
KATIE: Like Wonder Woman?
JORDAN: Yeah, sure, she’s one. Super Heroes are people with super-powers (like you), who use those powers for good (I hope, like you, too). The thing is, it’s not easy doing the right thing. A lot of times it seems easier to use your power for your own benefit, like by stealing things, or zapping people so you can take their place on a blog. So, the ones who try to do good all the time have it rough, and yeah, sometimes they whine about it.
KATIE: Wonder Woman’s pretty.
JORDAN: That’s… true… and she always tries to do what’s right, which is a struggle. Like… you’ve got super powers, right? That means you have to make the choice to either A) use your powers to help people and stop crime, or B) steal all the ponies in the world for yourself. Now, I’m sure you WANT to steal all the ponies in the world for yourself, but you KNOW it would be wrong and make other people sad, so you don’t.
KATIE: BZZZZZZZZZZZZZAP!!!!!!!!!
JORDAN: AAAIIOOOWW!
KATIE: Naaaaaaate!!!
NATE: Sighhh. Yes?
KATIE: I zapped Jordan again.
NATE: Why?
KATIE: He took ponies names in vain.
