Bat Dude was a character I held onto for years. He was the first thing I drew in
just about every sketchbook I had until I was like 15. I'm not sure why. His
theme was entirely derived from Batman, he had no superpowers, no personality
and no back-story. All he had was a pair of cutoffs and a mask with no eyeholes.
Oh right, and a monkey for a sidekick. No joke.
I really hoped I mixed up the words Hunk and Hulk, because that is a terrible
name. But check out the sweet anatomy. Loomis, eat your heart out!
The sad part is, this is the most original superhero and the best costume you're
going to see here tonight. Wow, I totally took the term washboard abs way too
literally.
Sureshot! He has guns and shoots them at bad guys! And speaking of shots, if you
want to play the Eric's Team of Superheroes VILLIANS BEWARE!™ Drinking Game, here
are the rules:
1. Hero has a mullet, take a shot.
2. Hero's name ends with the letter O, take a shot.
3. Hero has the exact same power as a popular superhero, take a shot.
4. Call the ambulance now, because you're going to be way too drunk to do it
later when you're dying of alcohol poisoning.
I have no clue what his power is, besides possibly projectile vomiting.
Two shots!
Icicle! He makes icicles with his mouth and then uses them to stab you!
One shot!
Apparently Eric's Team of Superheroes can't actually afford uniforms so they
usually just come to work in a sweatshirt and slacks. Oh, and kickin' sneakers.
Three shots!
Hydro, contrary to what his name implies, actually dehydrates things. So
basically he has the power of that gun the Joker used to turn the UN into
colourful piles of powder in the 1960's Batman movie.
Two shots!
That is one comically oversized lightning bolt.
Two shots!
Drago's power is a relatively long, powerful tongue, just like a dragon (?!). So
he's almost as useful as a guy who has the ability to punch. I'm going to skip
the obvious tongue related jokes entirely.
As far as I know, no popular superheroes have have super-tongues, so that's only
two shots!
Clayo. Boy, I really knew how to pick the names. He's... made of clay?
Three shots!
These guys seriously hate walls!
2 shots!
And yet, he's still way cooler than Aqua Man.
1 shot!
I think I erased the Kid from his name because I subconsciously knew I'd one day
invent a drinking game based on these drawings and I really want to get you
drunk.
Three whole shots!
I guess Animo didn't have quite the transformation range needed by Eric's
Superheroes Team, so they hired Repto as well. Just in case, you know, they
needed an iguana right now.
1 shot!
Okay, now it's just getting silly!
1 shot!
How kickass would that power be? To telepathically summon dinosaurs. There is no
argument you couldn't win by saying, "Yeah, well my friend disagrees with you.
You might know him. His name is Tyrannosaurus Rex."
Two shots, if you're still conscious!
Wow, I'm not even trying anymore. I just took Jaws and gave him a stupid
haircut. At least with other rip-offs I changed their names.
1 or 2 shots, depending if you count the original Jaws as a superhero.
ACIDO! When you spit acid like a garden hose, you can totally wear a headband
and nobody says a word.
Two shots! Well, three if you count a dilophosaur as a superhero.
BACK TO HOBO PIE!
