Best comedic comment on superheroes


One of my favorite comedicans Norm McDonnald was asked who his favorite superheroes is.

"I like the Fantastic Four, they have that Rock guy who is called 'The Thing', a girl who turns invisible is called inviso girl or something, a guy who can turn himself into flame called torch, and then there is this guy who can stretch like rubber for miles, so you would think they would call him stretch man or something.

But his name is Mr. Fantastic! I mean the ego on a guy to call himself Mr.Fantastic! Imagine working and you new boss walks in and introduces himself as "Hello I am Mr. Fantastic, good to meet you"

Stan Lee was neither as clever nor as smart as many like to believe. He was a master of the obvious.

DC has Mr. Terriffic, but he's more modest -- only the third smartest man in the world.

If they ever made a major movie featuring a obscure DC character that I knew nothing about, like Mr. Terrific, I would see it.
