Too good not to share

You can see why the kosher equivalent of the X-men will never be a blockbuster hit. I introduce you to the Jewish Hero Corps

The lineup:
Magen David - pretty ribbons on his yarmulke and apparently, wears a mini-skirt
Menorah Man - eight flaming arms of fighting power
Minyan Man - can clone himself to create a minyan
Shabbas Queen - complete with a big shiny wand
Dreidel Maidel - she spins. In a skirt
Matzah Woman - ate radioactive matzah
Kipa kid - throws yarmulkes

Dear Gods...please tell me this is all a joke.

Could be worse, I suppose.

I got personally attacked by an Eckankar fruitbat today. Told me that I had to let people from the internet into my higher self. Seems really unsanitary.

Did you ever see the "Son-O-God" parody comics that National Lampoon used to turn out evry so often?

[tryst-inn.livejournal.com]

Nope, I somehow missed those!

Yeah, his secret identity was as a Jewish teenager from Brooklyn, who, when he says the secret phrase "JESUS CHRIST!!!" is transformed into SON OF GOD, greatest of superheros. Assisted by the Twelve Apostles (who are mundanely disguised as a basketball team from the local YMHA,) he fights for truth, justice, and keeping things kosher. There's also a throwaway bit about a white dove named "HG" in there somewhere too. NatLamp did several of these back in the 70's/80's timeframe.

Oy. When I miss it, I miss it.

Update: See web reference for "Son-of-God" here.

oh dear Gods - that's ridiculous.

I take it his weakness is a stout beam of oak?

[brock-tn.livejournal.com]

Either that or pork products...

I'm left wondering if this was in response to Bible Man - but apparently not.

Oh no, even I couldn't come up with this.
