SHAZAM!

 

Ok, so I stole this from @sassybear and I thought I would make a post with it! Because why not? It was Superhero Day last week - Upton @wornderlandburlesque did another, more titillating take on this (and so did @lurkie), if you're interested- and @Sassybear (who collects comics) came up with these questions:

1. If you could have any super power (only one and you can’t say omnipotence) what would it be? Ideas: super strength, super speed, fly, turn invisible, phasing (walk through solid objects), elasticity (super stretching), teleportation, telepathy, time travel, etc. Be creative and feel free to come up with a superpower you’d really like having.

Flying. Cause I read somewhere that dreaming of flying has to do with sex and I trust Freud (not really, but yeah). I think flying should be such an incredibly liberating feeling and it would also let me go anywhere in no time. Not bad, huh? And I would have a cape, no matter what Edna says!

2 Why this power? How would you use it?

Because I could get places very fast? And remember how Superman spun around the earth and turned back time? Like Cher? There's some things I would love to correct, Butterfly Effect be damned. 

3. Who is your favorite fictional superhero? If you don’t have one, who is one you are most familiar with?

I love Deadpool. And I love Deadpool played by Ryan Reynolds even more. Gimme.

4. Have you ever read or owned a comic book? Besides me, do you know anyone who reads or collects comic books?

I collected comic books until I was 15, when I left home. I had hundreds of them and I think my mom gave them away because they converted my old room into my little sister's room. And I know about seven guys and two girls who collect comic books. Actually, Huntley gave me DC Pride Son of Kal El comic. He knows me.

5. Have you ever been inside or even seen a comic book store?

Duh, Yes. I usually go in and beeline to the clearance bin. There's always little treasures there. I also have some superhero dolls figurines (thanks, Lurkie): Namor (another of Huntley's gifts), Preacher, The Hulk, Batman, and one Superman.

6. Can you recall a moment when you witnessed true heroism? (Hey, maybe it was you!)

 No, it was not me. I think the fact that I saw somebody saving someone else from drawing by diving right near the breakers to save them would count, though. I was in awe. Trying to save someone from drawing can be fatal.

7. Last but not least: Have you ever done any of these….

. …the Wonder Woman Spin? Duh, Yes. Every. Single. Time.

…the Bionic sound when running or lifting something? Absolutely.

…bumped fists with someone and said “Wonder Twin Powers, Activate.”? Even recently.

…shouted “SHAZAM!”? Yes. Especially after I saw the movie.

... and those are all the questions!

XOXO

P.S. So, what about you? What's your relationship with Superheroes/Comic books?
