I also get annoyed with things like this that list heroes
alongside villains. The show Heroes used to do that all
the time, even once stating something along the lines of
evil heroes.

Since when do you expect editorial to show respect for the characters?

"Look for it appearing at conventions near you in years to come, stretched
across fat bellies, with the armpits stained several shades darker than the
rest of the shirt -- excepting the parts bedecked with food stains."

HA! I don't know if you meant to get a laugh out of it JB, but THAT was a

This shirt's is the type of humor I associate with the exact type of people who shouldn't be reading comic books about superheroes. I mean, at all.

By the way, it's a mortal lock Dan Didiot will be seen wearing this shirt. Exactly the sort of thing he'd find absolutely side-splitting.

It's probably "Fish Fetish" that bugs me most of all about this.

Do these people understand what that means?

Yeah, I agree, pretty messed up shirt.

They should just have an option where the owner can paste his picture on the shirt and write "Lives in Mothers' Basement" beneath it.  Is that funny?

On the other hand, I recently bought this one and wear it with pride.

I understand you can order it in the new PREVIEWS.

What size did you want, JB?
