Random, Wayward Thoughts (On Superheros)
Here are some random thoughts I have rolling around in my head...

Why doesn't Superman learn martial arts? Some have responded and said that he doesn't need to because of his super-human strength. Yes, I understand that the common criminal doesn't have a chance against him. But what about those super villans who manage to hand his ass to him from time to time? Superman needs an edge.

On that same note, why doesn't Batman carry a gun? Sure he's trained to Olympic perfection. Sure he has an armored suit. Sure he's got a lot of cool gadgets and stuff. Even so, I still don't think he has a viable defense against ranged weapons. Look at it this way, sometimes the life he may end up saving may not necessarily be his own. Does he have the capability of interceding at long range? He needs an edge.

Furthermore, shouldn't Wonder Woman be wearing something other than bracelets that are bullet-proof? I mean seriously, unless you're a Jedi Knight, there is no way to you can anticipate that kind of ballistic protection. Her outfit (yes, guys...despite it's small coverage) should have some form of protective properties. Seriously, she needs an edge.

I also think Aquaman should cross train with the Navy-SEALs. The possibilities are endless.

I also think Flash needs to see a fitness trainer. Who says he can't get faster? And can he take flying lessons?

I also think Captain America needs to throw other things than that stupid shield. You might as well be tossing trash can lids.

I should probably stop now...
