Super Stupid Ways To Travel.

Jun 27, 2008 09:58

Dear friends. As we all soak up the awesomeness of Batman and his various modes of uber cool transportation (hell even the Adam West Batmobile was pretty stylin'). We now take a look at some of the most questionable forms of travel throughout the comic book world:

Exhibit A). Aquaman on a dolphin.




If one of your two super powers is actually swimming incredibly fast...why slum it on another mammal?

Exhibit B). The Spidermobile.




Unbelievable. The one superhero specifically designed so that he doesn't have to deal with Manhattan traffic jams and Johnny Storm from the Fanstic Four makes ol' Spidey his own car. Insert face-to-palm here.

Exhibit C). Wonder Woman's inivisible plane.




Allright, now some of you may disagree with me on this one. But Wonder Woman can FLY. And she can fly faster than her own jet. When they pull this thing out of the mothballs every once in awhile I just scratch my head and wonder why she wants meander to a Crisis rather than get there as quickly as possible.

Exhibit D). Jack-O-Lantern's Jumping Hovercraft.




I've always hated this one even when I was a kid. Ok you're a nemesis of Spidey, but you decide to design a hovercraft that randomly bounces between buildings and basically you have no control of where/when you are going? You're just a giant air hockey puck on the Manhattan skyline? Well done. Idiot.

Exhibit E). The Supermobile.




Hi. I'm Superman. I can fly almost to the speed of light. Would you like to see my dorky spaceship with retractable fists? I thought so.

Exhibit F). The Spot's spots.




This is like Portal before Portal was even a twinkle in the eye of Valve's creators. This is an example of stupidity. Mega-genius creates spots that he can throw on solid matter and/or the air like Bugs Bunny and walk through them. HELLO! You're an instant billionaire and can do anything you want! But no...you have to try and rob a 7-11 and get a face full of webbing.

Exhibit G). The Flash's Cosmic Treadmill.




No. No I am not making this up. I know Cosmic Treadmill sounds like some kind of band reject from the original Woodstock lineup, but this device actually allows the flash to move backwards and forwards through time. I think we all may be lucky that jazzersize wasn't as popular as treadmill running when the writers came out with this one.
