SUPER HOLLY!!!



Beginning around the age of 5 I had a few "minor" misconceptions about some of the big name superheros. You see my cousins would sit me down in front of these cartoons each morning and then make me imitate the action sequences for hours on end but never give me any background on these characters. Though I have since been set straight I've always had a difficult time getting these ideas out of my head; here they are.

I believed:
  1. Cat Woman was Bat Man's wife
  2. Wonder Woman and Superman were wed as well...
  3. and Robin was their son
  4. Captain America was the father to all superheros ever (yes they were all siblings and yet married each other...I suppose I wasn't quite the thinker way back when)
  5. And lastly, simply because I can't think of all the ridiculous notions I had, I was positive superheros could never die. I think this last one is what ultimatly kept me from really enjoying the comic scene, there was no suspense factor.

Anyway this post wasn't intended to be a recounting of Holly's "good ol'days", rather I have always wanted to see myself in "superhero form" and so I thought I'd share that with all of you. Ever since those days of blissful confusion I've dreamed of seeing myself portrayed as a.... SUPER HOLLY!!! What would my name be? What would my costume look like? What powers would I have? Who would be my arch nemisis? And what would be my one weakness? Honest to goodness since my days of plastic gun play and high speed chase sequences in fisher price cars I've wondered all these things. It's exciting to think about! The coolest thing in the world would be to have a huge drawing of my super human alter-ego hanging in my room. I may just be a touch narcissistic, but come on that would be wicked!

Ya know I think I open up to you guys a bit too much. In the future I may keep these goings on of my brain to myself. Well, for know enjoy the opportunity to mock without mercy, wait one more thing, I would have to figure out an awesome one liner too, like my slogan. Heck Underdog had one.

I know you think that most toons have a cape and some lame costume all the time but just hear me out
I gave it a little thinking and this is what I came up with. I thought since you were good at confusing people all the time, why not take a look at that power and base something off that.

I thought your power would be to make people hallucinate, but more then that to really take over someone. Make them hallucinate so much, you stick them in there own world and they never know they arent in the real world.

And you discovered your powers one day when you accidently stuck your whole family in a comma, but it was really just one of your hallucination worlds. So after like a week or two of being stuck in a comma your family came out and you discovered you had a gift.

Your weakness could be that your family members are immune to your powers because of the comma thing.... then your bro or something could be your weakness/archenemy.

Im not coming up with a costume or say lame one liner because thats just gay.

hmmm.... thats my 2 cents.

I wish I was a super hero. My power would be to make people not act like retards that why you and mary would be cool.....

I once put something in a comma, too! Actually, that's a lie, I could never put something in a comma; they're far too small!

Oh, and I wish I had Steve's power. Making people not act like morons would be of great value; both Mary and Holly's entire personalities would change!

Imagine the peace...
