5. Have you seen the going rate for henchmen these days?

4. Doctor says I may be allergic to most insect bites, especially radioactive spiders.

3. No dental plan, even with outrageous co-pays.

2.  I look horrible in a body suit. Ain’t no robot arms gonna cover up these jelly rolls.

1. How am I going to be the “Terror of the Twilight” or the “Demon of Darkness” when I have to go to bed by 9:45?
