For the month of November we want to be thankful for the great superheroes and super villains we have and also give thanks for the lame heroes and villains who didn’t stick around for long. We’ll start by giving you the name of a lame hero and a group of lame—sometimes gross, sometimes offensive—powers they may have. You have to guess which one’s the real power. Yes. These heroes have existed or still exist today.

d) Reanimates dogs he welded from pet cemetery corpses.
2) Hindsight Lad
