I can hardly post this in Comics now can I?

We've all seen those on-line 'what's Your Superhero Name? polls. And we may even have chuckled over them. But here's someone who seems to have taken it all a bit too seriously. I wonder, is it for real? Might the poor boy 'have issues'? Could it be some cunning real life viral? Will Marvel sue? To be continued...

Blimey. I bet Captain Fantastic Faster Than Superman Spiderman Batman Wolverine Hulk And The Flash Combined gets a discount in his local comic shop.
Weird heroes to choose though (I mean Spiderman Batman Wolverine and Hulk aren't really that fast) but Captain Fantastic is a good first name I reckon.

Name change time!

"Dad, I keep telling you, it's Doctor Kickass now."

"No, that doesn't mean I'm going to grad school..."

Even I thought the Hulk thing was a bit strange, and I'm no comics afficionado. I wonder if he's sobred up enough yet for the novelty to have worn off?

Spider-Man should have a hyphen.

I know a guy that changed his name to Duncan McCloud (frae the highlander TV series) on a drunken bet.

That one's still Granny friendly though.

Hallo, Paper Spaceboy

I wonder if he and Batman Bin Suparman are ever going to team-up.

Who's Captain Fantastic? has he invented a superhero and is claiming it's better than all other heroes? That's just stupid.

I once knew a guy who changed his name to 'Bolt Forever Upright'. I don't even think it was for a bet. His giro cheques were things of beauty though.

Hehe. A friend of mine awarded himself the title of Captain when applying for a new credit card once. I think he's lost that now though.

Lol, though strictly-speaking, he's only claimed that Captain Fantastic is faster than the others. That doesn't preclude the possibility that Captain Fantastic whizzes around like greased lightening crashing into everyone and everything and generally creates more chaos than there was in the first place. Fast he may be, but he could still be a fool, a clot, or even a fully-fledged supersonic blundering liability...
