"I am BATMAN!" "I AM GROOT!" "I AM IRON MAN"...

  • "I am BATMAN!" "I AM GROOT!" "I AM IRON MAN"... "BATMAAN!!" "GROOOT!!" "IRON MAAAN!!"
  • "BATMAAYYYAANNN!!! GRRRRRROOOOOOTTT!! EYE-RON MAY-AN!!" Carl swooped around the TV den in his makeshift costume pummeling his parents. They could hardly guess when he grew up he
  • would become a superhero himself. As the years passed, he gained the power to
  • escape the cold, hard reality of life by playing adult boardgames and going to comic cons. It was during one of those events that he gained superhuman strength and learned how to
  • use Manga Studio Pro. His superhuman strength and personal experience gave his mangas some street cred at first, but eventually
  • they withered into nothing more than simple line art that any 2 year old with a pencil could draw. He cracked his knuckles and started again. This time he'd blow them all away with
  • his architectural designing skills. He would prove, once and for all, that he was the greatest architect who ever lived with his plans to build the world's most magnificent
  • flower pot. A post-Hegelian flower pot carved from a block of rare North Pole ice. The architect wept all over the plans on his drawing board. The only flower pot fit to contain
  • the tears of mankind will fade away into nothingness. The precious flower pot will never exist. And with that realization, the architect succumbed to an existential crisis.
  • His mother's wise words echoed in his mind: "Only those who attempt the absurd can achieve the impossible." "I did it!" the architect suddenly realized. "Mom would be so proud."
