    Default Cute Marvel Facts

    I always see us talking about sad or depressing or weird Marvel facts.

    But what are some facts or pieces of Marvel trivia that are just gosh darn cute?

    Let me start: Apocalypse, one of the most feared and violent Marvel villains, has a name that can roughly translate to "good morning." Yes, yes, it's supposed to be The First One or The Seven Lights or something and yes, technically the language is made up and isn't really Arabic, but En Sabah Nur's closest modern and real equilivilant is Good Morning.

    And I find that adorable!

    The only piece of original Marvel art I own is Banshee getting Merle Haggard tickets.

    Sirens be praised. I own this art!

    Janet is the one calling. It's Nadia's phone.

    Yeah, that's why her "cat" is called Chewie, named after Chewbacca.

    Tony gave up his secret identity when he put on his armor to save a dog that was about to be hit by a car.
    "We live in a world of cowards. We live in a world full of small minds who are afraid. We are ruled by those who refuse to risk anything of their own. Who guard their over bloated paucities of power with money. With false reasoning. With measured hesitance. With prideful, recalcitrant inaction. With hateful invective. With weapons. F@#K these selfish fools and their prevailing world order." Tony Stark

    Steve Rogers likes to troll people, both in modern times...

    And in the 1940's...

    But I think my favorite fact is that he designed and sewed the Nomad costume by himself...

    Aranha's Avengers ringtone is the theme from EMH - and Captain America sent it to her with the note: "Please don't tell anyone I know how to use a smartphone." - as per capandkirby's img above.

    I've seen things you posters wouldn't believe. Ad-spammers aflame off the shoulder of
    rec.arts.sf.written. I watched cancel posts glitter in the ether near the usenet gateway.
    All those moments will be lost in time... like beer in the rain. Time to unsubscribe.
