9 Most Inappropriate Comic Book Couples
Do plants get you going? Robots? Underage teammates? Your own sister/mother? No? What kind of superhero are you?
It's tough being a superhero. You're constantly worrying about exposure, villains threatening to destroy the earth, and getting mustard out of your spandex. Add to that the pressure of dating, and things are bound to get tricky. Because the heat of battle can make people do strange, strange things. And because love is blind, they often do those things with people, and in some cases things, that they really shouldn't. Interpersonal relationships are a driving force of good comic books, but the desire to make the couples in a book unique and interesting can often go awry. Add to that the longevity of comic book characters, and the need to put them in new and interesting situations in order to keep things fresh, and it's no surprise that they eventually end up in situations that no normal person should ever find themselves in. With retcons, reboots, and plain-old boredom all playing a role, superheroes can trade partners more frequently than in a soap opera.
