Monday Morning S--t Storm



Our first fellow writer commenter suggestion comes from Icehouse. As you can see above Spiderman is competing in an athletic event.

Ok fine, Sports Entertainment. It's still real to me dammit!

Anyway, the clip does bring out an interesting question. How would comic book characters fare in athletic competition?


The answer is that they would obviously be badass and set all sorts of records, but which sport would really fit their outrageous abilities. Obviously there are some natural fits such as Aquaman (Yo Vinny that shit is dope) and The Flash. But I honestly have no clue where I would put the X-Men. They would just kill everyone, right? I know what your thinking, and yes, there is no wrong answer to this shit storm. Spiderman playing golf? I mean...sure, that makes sense.

We already have a precedent with Brian Dawkins/Wolverine/Weapon X

But yeah, any comic book hero or villan, and if you pick a team sport please give a position.

My Selection;
THE HULK at Noseguard for football.


Perfect attitude and size. He can not only soak up, but also defeat double teams to allow my superhero linebackers to roam freely and kill the ball carrier. Literally.

"Oh but Lattimer how will you make him THE HULK and not Bruce Banner?"

Simple, I hire John Henderson as my D-line coach.

Shit Storm ASSEMBLE!!!
