Why not me?

A little bit of silliness!

I’ve never understood why Marvel passed me by when chronicling the adventures, missions and triumphs of superheroes.

I’ve led an exciting and fulfilling life. I once rescued a cat from a tree. Well, it was more of a bush but I had to stand on tip-toes.  I helped a lady get back on her feet after she fell to the ground. The fact that it is was I that tripped her did nothing to lessen the benevolence of my actions. Only yesterday I turned a snail back onto its belly having found it upside-down. The list of my heroic accomplishments is endless.

Given my suave seniority, I guess I could be another Silver Surfer, or even Iron Man Mk.2, though at my age, I’d probably be going a little rusty! I spend ages on the Web, so how about Spiderman the Second!

By the way, I once went to a fancy-dress party as Shreck. I painted my face with green food colouring. I had to take a week off work whilst waiting for it to fade away! 

Where was I? Oh yes, if anyone from Marvel is reading this, I am available should you need a new superhero to boost your ratings.
