Its 5:00 am and I am trying to figure out how to write this post while it’s fresh in my mind , so here it goes. I continue to read through early Avengers and it started to dawn on me that Hawkeye is really a big asshole. The number of times he gave smart ass remarks to civilians and fellow Avengers, began to get a little annoying. So I was thinking of the old saying. “You can pick your friends and you can pick your nose but you can’t pick your friend’s nose.”
So the question is what heroes could you see yourself becoming friends with?
Either in civilian life or if they were coworkers.
And the other question may be are heroes simply anti social personalities with a touch of PTSD as a whole due to the constant threats they face daily, or like every human some are just assholes?

Nowadays he's a down to earth guy, fun-loving and a tad irresponsible, but someone I wouldn't hesitate to call for help when there's a couch to move. I wouldn't mind hanging out with Shang-Chi. He's a bit reserved when it comes to making friends, but then so am I. Plus, he could teach me a few moves. I'd also love being Reed Richard's friend. The guy's enthusiasm for science is contagious. Then I could regale my class with anecdotes on what I did in the negative zone last weekend, and how it relates to today's subject. ... Not John Constantine. It would likely be too short a friendship, and I'd like to die a peaceful death, as far in the future as possible. There are so many costumed heroes nowadays that I'm sure they cover the entire spectrum of personalities. |

I think I could hang out with Peter Parker There are so many costumed heroes nowadays that I'm sure they cover the entire spectrum of personalities. Agreed. I've always been curious as to why PTSD or any mental illness, other than Hank Pym's many breaks with reality isn't part of storylines more. Especially in today's world. I don't read any current comics so correct me if I'm wrong. |

I've always felt that I'd like to be friends with Peter Parker. It's probably one of the reasons why Spidey is my favourite superhero.

Post-revival (from the ice) Steve Rogers: I share some of the character's internal issues, so there would be a base to find common ground others may not be able to relate to or address. Post-Ditko Peter Parker: maturing because he naturally shed the crap from the awkward high-school days to become self-assured (but reserved) with his true psychological strengths. Galactus: Well...its better that he's your friend instead of your enemy!  |
