Super Social Networking: Super-Hero Facebook Status Updates
October 5, 2009 | Posted by Chris Sims
For this week’s article on ComicsAlliance, I round up a bunch of Facebook Status Updates from your favorite comic book characters! The image above actually has my favorite punchline of the bunch, but–of course–I neglected to actually put it in the article when it first went up. It’s there now though, so even if you saw it when it was going around earlier today, go read it again!
There are two quick shout-outs I need to give for this one: The idea for the article came entirely from CA’s Laura Hudson, and it wouldn’t be nearly what it is if it wasn’t for Andrew Weiss helping me out and letting me bounce ideas off of him to get in the right frame of mind for it. So if you enjoy it, half of that enjoyment belongs to them.
And if you hate it, they did the whole thing, and I had no part of it whatsoever.

You sir are HYSTERICAL. And I mean the people who helped you too.
That was fucking amazing. You are a genius.
These were just brilliant. The Red Bee was just spot-on perfect.
THE
RED
BEE
!!
What else needs to be said?
:D
Grumpy Bear.
Chris Sims, you are a delight.
THIS IS WHY NO ONE LIKES YOU RICHARDS!!!
Brilliant, sir, you win the Facebook.
Dude, I think you owe Laura a beer for the premise. If you can make stuff up out of whole cloth, then you never again have to listen to people tell you what “you forgot.” The article, of course, is hilarious, as I posted over there.
Brilliant!
Foggy Nelson’s “Oh god I’m so sorry.” STILL has me laughing.
freaking hilarious. Almost enough to make me want to use twitter.
Is J. Jonah Jameson channelling Warren Ellis? And if so, why doesn’t he do it more often?
J. Jonah Jameson channels no one.
Warren Ellis channels J. Jonah Jameson.
Frank Castle and Mafia Wars. Brilliant, mate.
Since when is April 24th at the beginning of summer, eh, Sims?
The Punisher ones were the best. So true!
When I first went through the article, I thought that either the Lois one or the Doom one was my favorite, but I think I have to change my answer.
Because Krypto typed “WOOF!” And that right there is comedy gold.
When you win the Nobel Prize for making fun of stuff on the internet, remember this moment. The judges will.
Bookrats likes this.
(A lot!)
This is my favorite thing you have written for CA. so much hilarity.
The grumpy bear bit was my favorite.
Genius. I would love to know by what means you created these FB ‘entries’… Photoshop? Fireworks?
No doubt! You won, sir!
I don’t get the Red Bee one. Hints? Suggested reading?
Also: tea went up the nose with the Daredevil one. Wonderful. And so worth it.
I might go so far as to say this is the funniest thing you’ve done this year.
Oh, wow, that was amazing. I was pretty much just cackling through the whole thing. I keep wanting to say which was my favorite, but then another one’ll come into my head and set off the giggling again.
So just damn fine show, sir.
Damn funny! In addition to the ones everyone else mentioned, “Anniversary?” and Kyle & Hal were hilarious.
WHAT DID YOU DO, MEPHISTO
GODDAMMIT, THIS BETTER NOT BE TIJUANA ALL OVER AGAIN
I got linked to this by a friend and I must say this is the funniest things I’ve read in a while.
You and the people that helped you, did a fantastic job. If you ever feel like doing this again, please do!
ditto. that was just hilarious!
Funniest thing I’ve seen in a while. You rule.
It’s the little details, like Clark Kent ‘liking’ Lois’ sunglasses post. Truly a delight for the senses.
You got onto the main page of Fark.com, congrats

I just had to come back here, AGAIN, and read this post! I mean, dag!!! I’m sure the folks at D.C. / Marvel / Image…heck, even the movie studios are kicking someone’s butt for not thinking of this first! Hi-freakin’-larious!!!
