10 Holidays To Not Invite A Superhero To

3. Guy Fawkes Night: The Martian Manhunter

This would be one of the worst places you could ever bring poor J€™onn J€™onzz. The guy puts up enough with our craziness to begin with, but to bring him to a place where people are not only gathering in mobs but shouting while surrounded by burning effigies would unnecessarily scare the sh*t out of him, filling every facet of his being with pure horror. It€™s just completely uncalled for. Plus, he could lose control of his powers and really screw up the festivities (and how do you know he€™s not undercover in the form of a Guy Fawkes effigy right now anyway?). I'm not even sure an Oreo could calm him down. On Guy Fawkes Night, it€™d be better to call somebody else, or if you really want to hang out with the Martian Manhunter that evening, think of somewhere else to take him. Like a quiet room with a TV.
