My new favorite eco-superhero :)

Posted on | July 28, 2009 | No Comments

Jimmy Fallon – from Late Night on NBC – went to Comic Con in San Diego over the weekend, and he took with him an idea for a superhero that he had been hatching for, oh, 20 years.  Apparently his character was “learning karate at a strip mall” when there was an explosion and a rechargable battery went into his heart, thus making him The Recharger.  In other words, he can recharge your cell phones for you!  But he can’t do too much else.  Ridiculous, yes, but I have to say I love the sight of him walking around with a bunch of small solar panels strapped to his, um, body regions.  I agree with Stan Lee when he says at the end, “you know Jimmy, maybe your costume isn’t so bad”.
