There's a great bit where Thing apprehends somebody and binds them to a lightpole with another lightpole all bent up, and he offhandedly mentions discovering that Thing is Jewish. Ben asks if he has a problem with that, and the villain goes.... No, not at all, you just don't look it.

Kalli posted:Also apparently Sasquatch, Moon Knight, Wiccan (I think?), someone I don't recognize and a bunch of kids so the party looks less sad: Man why is it that whenever there's a splash page like this with super heroes chillaxing there's always gotta be an rear end in a top hat showing off their superpowers when it's not really appropriate? Like I'm sure that if Spidey had been in there he'd been hanging upside down, and Wolverine would've been cutting his sandwich with his claws, and Iceman would be full ice chilling drinks or peeing ice cubes. Why can't they just casually stand or sit down and enjoy a quiet meal?

Or if it was about to rain at your BBQ and Storm was there you'd definitely be like "hey, a little help here?"

Why use utensils instead of just shoveling food with your hands, you showoff?

Ok yeah Bobby would be the best guy at a party, but why do they gotta have that thunder guy lighting the menorah down there? What's wrong with using matches? Wouldn't using lightning bolts just immediately melt the ax? Why is Kitty just phasing through the table? She's just eating a snack and drinking from her dixie cup!

Songbird's name is Melissa Gold, and I may be remembering it wrong, but I'm pretty sure her being Jewish first came up during an awkward conversation in Thunderbolts about Zemo's dad being a Nazi.

Hellboy summarizes: As for parties, well, here's why. Here's a panel from USM 200: Quick! Left to right. Who's at the party? JLA splash panels of dinners at the satellite or whatever may have more 'normal' activity - JLI had plenty - but they also had distinctive appearances, even between artists.

Also, even though he might not be Jewish you'd think Teddy would be there, seeing as how they're engaged and all.

When you have a superpower I imagine you just think of it as part of you and not being a power you explicitly wield. Why walk around a table when you can walk through it? Why sit in a chair when you feel more comfortable sticking on a wall? That kinda thing.
