Today is National Super Hero Day.
I post this day especially for my friend Tamra and dear sweet Nate who are huge Marvel hero fans.
I made a Batman card once that I'd love to display for this day but I'm far from home and this is the best I have to offer. They look sorta super hero-y don't they?
Marvel employees created National Superhero Day on April 28, 1995 to celebrate everyone’s favorite superheroes, but for superheroes only — Those nasty villains just aren’t deserving of their own day. The idea behind superhero day is to honor those who serve and protect while fighting evil. No matter who your favorite hero is, honoring the real or fictional people that inspire us is a worthwhile cause this April 28.
Did you know the first superhero ever was created in 1936? He was named Phantom and he started with his own comic strip in a U.S. newspaper. This was the first known beginnings of a published superhero and, today, there are hundreds of well-known heroes that everyone loves.
Just think about all those superheroes you loved growing up (and probably still love). We’re talking about Spiderman, Thor, Ironman, Captain Marvel, and many other fan favorites. Those heroes are all from Marvel comics, the creators of “The Fantastic Four,” “The Avengers,” and “X-Men.” However, Marvel superheroes aren’t the only ones out there. If you’re a fan of Batman, Wonder Woman, or Superman, those superheroes were created by DC Comics, and they are equally celebrated on this day!
So who is your favorite super hero?
I am very sad that in California Adventure which is right next to Disneyland they have made it pretty much all Marvel. I liked the park the old way. Boo
