Ten of the most absurd superhero

via xketamine.livejournal.com

In Russia, comics never enjoyed great demand, which, in my opinion, strange children have at least had an interest in the beautiful illustrations with loved ones, or even if, unknown heroes who fight against evil in all possible ways. Probably, it's the mentality. Even now, despite the fact that the industry has developed to a great extent more than in the 90s, it is difficult to meet in the street or on public transport a child reading a comic book. Maybe it's a good thing.

However, the age group of 20 will remember the comics publishing Machaon, which, despite the absurdity of the venture, actively promotes a series of American teenager Archie - a guy with questionable notions of morality and intelligence cactus. Everyone remembers the comics on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! In contrast to the somber black and white original, our bug from Machaon were colorful and good.

10. Stone Boy

This character appeared in the comic book series «Legion of Superheroes».

A guy named Dag Wintem lived on the planet Zwen, which is 6 months of the year was shrouded in darkness.

The inhabitants of the planet Zwen had the ability to turn into stone statues to ride out this period.

Dag thought that his forces might need someone in the universe and contacted the Legion of Super-Heroes.

However, they did not need his unique talent. After all, he just turned to stone. That's all. When he was a stone, he could not move and talk, he could not even manage the power of the stone. He was just a lump. Then the Legion allowed him to sit on the bench them - if they are busy, it can be useful to help.

What is the application could not find a piece of stone in the fight against evil? It hardens and threw them into enemies.

Truly dangerous character.





9. Madam Fatal

The little old lady in a red hat and a red coat with a crutch and a parrot-assistant named Hamlet - fighters from the crime by Quality Comics.

Madam Fatal struck her stick, comparable in strength to hit the man in perfect physical shape. In fact, Madam Fatal was really a man and called "her» Richard Stanton. Richard - a retired actor, who, disguised as an old woman, he decided to fight crime, using his acting talent. His only trump card lies in the fact that the villains did not see a threat in the little old lady with a parrot.



8. Brother Power the Geek

In 1960, the father of Captain America, John Simon, created a series of comic «Brother Power the Geek». Brother Power was a mannequin as long as it is not struck by lightning. After that he is not just alive, but also won the super-magical abilities. In fact, it is stronger than Superman: Superman has two vulnerabilities - heart bleeds from the love of Lois and certainly kryptonite. And Brother Power does not have weaknesses.

Despite this, his abilities he did not enjoy. He lived with hippies and preached on the theme of love and peace.

In the first issue, he immediately decided to run for the presidency, but in the second the issue during the election campaign, he accidentally shot into space, and he was gone forever.



7. Captain Planet

In fact, this is not the hero of the comic book and cartoon character. But it is worthy of the list.

In Russia, his name was translated as "Commander of the Planet", which is consistent with its image of squalid. Look at this hair style Bilan. It is bad not because of Bilan, and due to the fact that in the United States since haircuts only rednecks.

In the series, there were four teens who has given the Spirit of the Earth Elemental magic ring, in pieces on the snout - a classic combination: earth, fire, wind, water. Combining these rings teens called Commander Planet.

If you treat it as a super-hero, he is very good. In fact, he is probably the strongest of all the super-heroes: he has all the powers that can only be - super-strength; super-speed; invulnerability; super-breath; super-hearing; telepathy; telekinesis. And while he could still change shape, turn into different objects and even had power over all the elements.

Created Commander Planets American media mogul and philanthropist - Ted Turner. Who needs super-hero from Ted Turner? Moreover, the enemy commander planets were oil spills, radiation and waste. This is at least ridiculous.

And his appearance ... my God.



6. The Black Racer

Some believe that the death of - a skeleton in a black robe and scythe. But not the creator of the Black Rider, Jack Kirby. He believes that the death of - an aggressive black man, dressed as if going to a ski resort.

Paralyzed Vietnam veteran Willie Walker, one day realizes that he actually - Black intergalactic racer.

Armed with cold-resistant suit, knight helmet, a yellow raincoat and a pair of skis, Willie travels the universe in search of souls of the dead gods, who then sends the measurement of Hadith.

Harbinger of death of the gods - the guy on skis.

Awesome.



5. The Red Bee

Mr. Red Bee first appeared in the pages of «Hit Comics» in 1940. In fact, he was an ordinary man with no abilities.

A cool costume, he chose a red shirt with pink sleeves and breeches in the yellow-red stripes.

But it is not shabby appearance made him a hero ridiculous, as is the case with the commander of the planet, and the way in which he fought against crime.

He fought against the enemies of his throws trained bumblebee named Michael, who lived in the buckle of his belt. No kidding. Trained bumblebee. Michael.

The only chance to defeat the enemy was the presence of the latter allergy to bee venom. 4. Matter Eater Lad

If not the most ridiculous hero, then it worthy of the title of "carrier of mudovogo name." Again, a series of Legion of the Superheroes.

In the 1960s, DC vyserali from the remnants of the imagination to create new heroes and one of them was the Matter Eater Lad. Super-ability of it was that he could spend all through any matter. That's all. The strength of the super-eating.

If the heroes had to pass through a steel wall - he eats it, but when it came to fighting, he stood aside. After all, in his case, the only way to attack - to eat the enemy. DC In those days eschewed violence.

3. Arm Fall Off Boy

Again, the writers and artists Legion of Superheroes did their best.

Arm Fall Off Boy - one of the most original characters of the Legion of Heroes. The first and last time he appeared in 1989. Just one appearance, but remember it still.

Its super-ability is that he can separate his left arm from the body and use it as a "lethal" weapons. In the picture you can see how he demonstrates his amazing opportunities to members of the Legion.

Arm Fall Off Boy was surprised when he learned that his talents do not fit the organization. I wonder where he is now.

2. The Legion of the Superpets

1950s, DC writers continue to hallucinate and create the Legion of Super-pets. All animals are Superman cape and has all the abilities of the hero.

First came the Crypto - super-dog, which he sent to Earth of Superman's father, Jor-El, in a separate rocket before send his son. Superman found Crypto and together they fought crime in the world.

Then there was the super monkey BIPP. Jor-El sent her after a rocket Superman, so that, in the event of problems, Superman flew to the rocket docked with it and solve the problem.

Next came Streaky - super-cat. Unlike BIPP and Krypto, Streaky lived on Earth and irradiating kryptonite.

Finally, Comet - super-horse. Comet - alien horse, which is actually not a horse and a centaur, who cursed some cosmic evil goddess.

Once a year, he flew past the Earth and the comet Comet horse turned into a man who had an affair with a Super-aunt. But this one day a year - the rest of the time he was her pet. But who knows.



1. Dogwelder

Dogwelder - character comic series «Hitman», he was a member of a team of super-heroes, which was called Section Eight. This group is tightly covered with people who used avant-garde techniques in the fight against crime.

I'm not even sure whether they fully the term "avant-garde" corresponds to the method Dogwelder'a.

I stumbled on it just yesterday, but it's love at first sight and forever. Dogwelder - the guy in the suit welder with a dog in his hand.

At first I did not pay much attention to him. It would seem that special about it?

Each character has a story, how he found those or other abilities. I am interested in how a Dogwelder opened this talent.

What is it? I'll tell you.

Dogwelder welds stray dogs to persons villains.

This is no joke, I am serious as ever !!! So, fuck, it is necessary to fight crime !!!

Just try, bitch, rob a bank, I'm welded to your face Yorkshire Terrier And then you will be doomed to eternal misery, filth.
