The Wednesday Whimsy

Wednesday WhimsyDid you read any comic books when you were a kid? Any particular reason you liked those specific ones?
I didn't. When my sister was younger, she would buy Archie comic books and I would read those, but I was never into superhero comics.

If you could live in the world/story of any comic book series, what would it be, and how would you figure into it?
Ooooh, me in the world of Archie... wait, no, Archie sucks. Do manga count? I would like to live at Maison Ikkoku, or go to school with the gang from Marmalade Boy. I don't think I would want to be in a comic book with people fighting all the time, but that's just me being practical and realistic.

There's a new comic book series coming out, and you are the superhero. Describe yourself, including things like your superhero name, abilities, costume, method of transportation, weapons if you use any, sidekick if you don't go it alone, what can kill you, alter ego, and arch-nemesis.
I recently created a superhero called The Archivist, whose super power is that she can put on and remove those stupid white cotton gloves we have to use for handling pictures, just by thinking about it. Schwing! On! Schwing! Off! But I don't want to be an archivist, so I shan't be her. I don't want to fight anyone. But I guess if I'm a superhero, I must. We'll start out with the nemesis, because that's what drives people to become superheroes in the first place, I guess. Evil they feel they need to fight. And the evil I must fight is... cultural insensitivity. Crap, I am a really sucky superhero. Um... stupidity. Stupidity is good. I will just run around kicking the crap out of stupid people. I will be The Destupidizer. I will have super martial arts skills and kick people around a lot. I will ride in a little tiny car that goes put-put-put-put-put and wear a rabbit suit. AAAAH! I am having problems taking this question seriously, as you may have already guessed. Maybe I'll come up with a better answer after I think about it some more. Probably not.

Describe a recent dream.
Cannae remember one. Sad.
