Fattened Comic Book Characters

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The SuperSized Heroes Gain Weight with the Help of Citizens

— November 28, 2013 — Lifestyle
For all that they do for the world, at least fantasy worlds, the superheroes of comic books deserve to let go; but such an act can be a slippery slope as the SuperSized Heroes website shows. And it gets quite slippery thanks to the help of the citizens they are sworn to protect. Essentially, SuperSized Heroes only gain weight when fed a ton of fries by visitors.

Testing the willpower of Batman, Superman, Thor, Spiderman and Ironman, the SuperSized Heroes website reads, "Ever wondered what would happen if your favorite superhero let themselves go? Now you can find out. Feed them chips and watch them grow." The site was designed by Pure Blue for Desirable Body.
Trend Themes
1. Supersized Hero Gaming - Explore interactive gaming experiences where users can control the weight gain of comic book superheroes through food consumption.
2. Fantasy World Entertainment - Create immersive entertainment experiences that allow fans to interact with their favorite characters in innovative and unexpected ways, such as feeding them and watching their physical transformations.
3. Body Positivity in Comics - Embrace diverse body types and challenge traditional superhero stereotypes by introducing characters with varying sizes, promoting body positivity and inclusivity.
Industry Implications
1. Gaming - Develop interactive video games that incorporate feeding mechanics and customizable character transformations for an engaging and immersive gaming experience.
2. Entertainment - Introduce interactive exhibits and theme park attractions that allow visitors to feed and interact with their favorite comic book characters, creating memorable and unique experiences.
3. Comics and Graphic Novels - Incorporate body positive narratives and characters into comic book storylines, promoting inclusivity and expanding the representation of diverse body types in the medium.
