Bananaman the British superhero, on a belt buckle


Isn't it great that we have a British superhero? Shame that he's a bit thick but maybe that's our national quirkyness showing through.

It's weird the way things work out isn't it? I grew up with Marvel and DC comics and their superheroes with special powers (or even just developed normal powers like Batman). Then Marvel brought in Captain Britain and us school nerds thought that was great.
These days we seem to be having superhero movies popping up all the time and the characters/stories just seem to be getting better and better.

So what do I find myself writing about? Bananaman with the muscles of twenty men and the brains of twenty mussels. Maybe it's because he's so bad in the mental department that he's so good or maybe it's because he's a kind of spoof that makes him an antidote to the recent movies.

And now there's a Bananaman Belt Buckle.

By the way, he's Bananaman, not Banana man.
