Wow, wow, wow. I'm amazed at what people will take take the time to work through and post on the web.Today's amazing use of bandwidth is a site that gives (and provides evidence for) the religious affilitions of comic book characters.
And it's not just the simple ones - Wonder Woman believes in the Greek Gods, for example; Ben Grimm's Jewish; Zauriel (the angel) is Christian). No, they go into exactly which denomination each hero is - from the complicated (Dr. Druid from Marvel Comics is believes in "Tibetan buddhism/Iamaism; Celtic Druidism".) And they provide tons of evidence for each one with the most deailed probably being the big ones (Superman, Batman, Spider-Man, Captain America, but they're totally stumped with Plastic Man.)
Some of the predictions are a littler easier than others, of course.
And freakishly, when searching for pictures to post next to this blog entry, I found a company that can make you your very own superhero costume if you wanna drop a few bucks. Be warned, however, that's it's just a quick hop and jump from a superhero costume to a fetish costume. luckily the website's G rated.

After looking at chemguy's links first, I was surprised to see the interpretation of the thing over Doug's head become a feather, when everyone knows that it is Doug's belt on his head...thanks for the correct Quailman interpretation, ruff ryder...
