I'm not getting the Ramones/Sheena connection to this theme.

Who will win the most obscure Super Hero award?  Diaper Man, maybe?


Sheena of the Jungle takes the pole position for the award!
Ah.  Gotcha.

Sheena, Queen of the... Punk Rockers?

I'd've preferred the Ramones cover of the Spiderman theme.  OMGWTFLOL!  XTC, "That's Really Super, Supergirl"!!! another bustout!

from the brilliant Skylarking, which you really need to own. As to Sheena, someone called this morning to say that Joey always claimed it was inspired by Sheena of the Jungle.

I'm betting on "Magneto and Titanium Man" from Paul the Macca

Is it just Super Heros or can we get something frm the Archies?

Wahoo!

BOS to the Batdance.  FRA, and also because it's a fascinating collage.  "Vicki Vale.  I like ..."
