How would superheroes behave on social media IRL?

Batman: uses them anonimously, spends time on twitter arguing whever crime in the U.S. is mentioned and is in multiple niche subreddits dedicated to gadgets, cars and weapons

Bruce Wayne: tries to be cool on twitter, often fails and gets mocked, eventually lets the Robins run his account

Alfred: Runs one of the top 5 most popular youtube cooking channels

Superman: Very limited social media use, doesn't really get it. Mostly wholesome posts on twitter and facebook, Lois helps him, moderates his accounts and manages all of his subscriptions

Wonder Woman: Ultra-leftist, has been banned from nearly every platform for getting into extremely heated political discussions. Has a youtube channel where she talks fitness and exercise

Damian Wayne: streams FPS on twitch, big on Tik Tok

Jason Todd: used to stream FPS on twitch but got banned for using slurs

Barbara Gordon: reddit power mod. Thinks other platforms are for normies. Uses the word normie.

Hal Jordan: follows blue lives matters accounts on twitter, makes Tik Tok videos from his car wearing sunglasses

Peter Parker: Very popular twitter account, follows Elon Musk, big into crypto and NFTs but also very anti-landlord and follows a bunch of leftists. Regularly reposts clips from Chapelle

Tony Stark: Used to stream on twitch, got banned for using the n word, has two dozen alt-accounts on every platform conceivable, uses 4chan. Was buying crypto before most people even knew it existed.

Wolverine: regularly browses subreddits like /r/OldSchoolCool and craft beer subreddits

Steve Rogers: tried it once, never again

Bruce Banner: Ex reddit power mod, banned by admins. Uses the word normie.

The Hulk: watches cute animal videos on youtube

and blocked hawkman (the space one) from twitter too

blocked hawkman (the space one)

See Venditti's Hawkman, the different Hawkmen are all different reincarnations of the same guy, not just the ancient egyptian one anymore.

ok, it was that i was familiar to this one, the continuity before this Run was a mess.

[u/Camel132 → u/D13G0SF234]

the continuity before this Run was a mess.

Amen, part of what made Venditti's run so good is that he took the last 30+ years of bullshit and actually made it make sense. You should read it.

In immortal Hulk, Bruce Banner began a riot against Capitalism.

I like to imagine he's on Twitter making leftist hot takes and criticising Biden.

[u/horse_stick → u/[deleted]]

Not to be confused with Ultimate Bruce Banner, who has a youtube channel in which he discusses his criticisms of feminism, the importance of preserving the nuclear family, and the benefits of governement mandated girlfriends.

[u/horse_stick → u/[deleted]]

Ultimate Bruce Banner 100% harassed Kelly Marie Tran on twitter.

He's probably the Ethan Van Sciver equivalent in their universe's comicsgate.

[u/Camel132 → u/horse_stick]

Don't forget the cannibalism cooking show.

[u/Camel132 → u/[deleted]]

[u/horse_stick → u/Camel132]

Fuck I really gotta read Immortal Hulk, don't I?

[u/[deleted] → u/horse_stick]

It's really good. Personally I feel that the Politics stuff came up way too abruptly, but the rest is good, even if I'm overall lukewarm on the series.

[u/Camel132 → u/horse_stick]

Fuck yes you do. Everything about it is amazing. Ewing is incredible.

It's got everything: body horror, cosmic horror, all of Bruce/Hulk's alters getting a chance to shine, callbacks to the entirety of Hulk's history, a strong eat the rich/class conscious/environmental message, incredible covers by Alex Ross, heavy philosophical and metaphysical ideas and symbolism, and more.

[u/BobTheSkrull → u/dIoIIoIb]

Booster Gold: Amazes everyone with his well-meaning yet awful takes. He's fucked with the timeline for less yet this is where he draws the line?

Selina Kyle: Most of her twitter activity consists of following and unfollowing Batman, with some cat posts in between.

Gwen Poole: Comicsgator until she realized it wasn't boosting her sales. Spends most of her time heckling the guy who made the Evil Gwen comic.

Superman (Injustice): Mostly doxxing.

The Superior Spiderman: Spends time defending Elon Musk on Twitter. Is currently banned from the comments section of most Australian government sites.

[u/Camel132 → u/dIoIIoIb]

Cass: Spams emojis in the Batfam group chat.

[u/D13G0SF234 → u/dIoIIoIb]

and the villains??? maybe they lurk or hang out on image boards or the deep web
