Many of us grew up with comics featuring superheroes and other characters. In fact I was just thumbing through some old issues of Superman and Spiderman just the other day, and it dawned on me that many of these characters are as old as if not older than we are. For instance, Superman first appeared in 1938, Batman in 1939 and Spiderman in 1962. Yet in the comics and TV features even in present times, they are portrayed looking not a day older than when we first laid eyes on them.
This is so UNFAIR !!!! While all of us are still relatively young, I dare say we are feeling some effects of wear and tear over the years (except for a few notably youthful looking ones like RC and WKK ... what's the secret guys???)
Anyway, I reckon if those comic characters were real, this is probably what they would look like today ...
Even lovable creatures like Tweety Bird are not spared ... I reckon Sylvester might fare better as cats are supposed to have nine lives ...
And finally for the ladies who enjoyed playing with Barbie dolls, our blondie friend has also been ravaged by time ...
Just for laughs at the end of a long week ... TGIF !!!!
