Does it bother anyone else that the entire concept of Aquaman was somewhat dumb. What a lame superhero. I didn''t read the comics or anything but you would have to be pretty creative to create story after story in which breathing under water and talking to fish is incredibly usefull.

...And it''s even dumber because the character was "inspired" in Namor...

Hell, even as an 8 year old kid in the 70''s I was aware that there were some pathetic superheros.

This more or less says it all. The other superhero "reviews" are quite good too.

"The only reason Aquaman even got a one on his SUPER RATING is because as pathetic as he is, he''s still more useful than Marvin, Wendy, and that fucking dog in the cape. I would still pick his fish ass for my kick ball team after my grandma, though."

That site is halirious. damm....I haven''t laughed that hard in a month. Thank you for posting that link.

Wow, that first Superman strip is funny as hell.

They always had to save one for Batman, though, who would spend five minutes working out a complicated pulley system with his batropes to tie one up, and hope it breaks when he bonks it gently into a wall. Thanks, Batman, we couldn''t have done it without you. I guess it''s better than Aquaman who usually fought robots by sticking his head in the nearest sink and pretending to be soap. I know that seems weird, but robots are pretty easy to trick.

The best part is that the second strip is actually based on an episode, and you can see a clip of it on the site. For bonus trivia points, it''s worth noting that Lex Luthor''s Superfriends origin was that he was trying to help Superman create a Kryptonite vaccine. However, there was an explosion in the laboratory, and a bunch of gas was released. However, when Superman tried to help by spinning around really fast, he fanned all the gas back into the laboratory, doing something wierd to Luthor''s mind.

Of course, such things never happen to cowboys...
