Members UstadKhanAli Posted May 17, 2007 Members Share Posted May 17, 2007 When did comic superheroes start wearing those odd little panties on the outside of their superhero uniform? Why? Which superhero did it first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members linwood Posted May 17, 2007 Members Share Posted May 17, 2007 Funny...I was reading Captain Underpants to my 4 yr old grandson just yesterday and we were wondering if I might be the first superhero that wears boxers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Super 8 Posted May 17, 2007 Members Share Posted May 17, 2007 Well, if they wore them on the inside then there'd be panty lines, and that would just look silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members John Sayers Posted May 18, 2007 Members Share Posted May 18, 2007 he he - I'm sitting at Sydney airport waiting for a flight and I'm bored. There is a huge billboard outside the terminal for a real estate search company called domain.com.au.. The sign says "Need a new place? It's easy - anyone can do it" Next to it is a huge picture of GWB sitting with his laptop :eek: I didn't know your pres was giving out endorsements.

Members ultravibe Posted May 18, 2007 Members Share Posted May 18, 2007 Doing a search on the first superhero, someone mentioned that it had to be Jesus - which made me think, "super powers, underwear worn prominently... it all fits!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kendrix Posted May 18, 2007 Members Share Posted May 18, 2007 Seems to me that, if you can walk around looking like that and not be harrassed to death, then you must be a super hero. That makes you a super hero. I am not a super hero. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members deanmass Posted May 19, 2007 Members Share Posted May 19, 2007 I am thinking it was the 'rush to get dressed' to fight bad guys.....like....'Holy crap, bad guys attacking, Jena (Grey) , where are my drawers? ( cause ya know, that is who I would prolly try to be with in my off time......here they are....damn, toenails are hanging on the lycra, in they go, hope I don't run em..{censored}, forgot undies, hell, outside they go, I need the support cause, ya know, I am da MAN, and I NEEDS the support for my junk.." Applies to all super-types.. in a rush, need support, to hell with fashion... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GroovepusherSly Posted May 21, 2007 Members Share Posted May 21, 2007 I think it's more like wearing pants. Most Superheros wear a leotard that's skin tight, that's the underwear, (like long john's). The shorts (belt) and boots are the clothes. Sly And cape. Another thought. Maybe the first superhero jumped straight out of bed in his long underwear. He went and performed his good deed. But instead of all the bystanders cheering him, they instead looked and gasped, then started laughing as he flew away. When he got home he realized his flap was open. So, next time he went out, he threw on a pair of shorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members blue2blue Posted May 21, 2007 Members Share Posted May 21, 2007 THIS guy not only wore underwear on the outside of his tights -- it was STRIPED, satin underwear. (Well, I dunno satin -- but it appears to have a definite sheen in many images.) But -- hey -- he might have a few kinks -- but there's no questioning the Phantom's preferences: Sometimes it's the only thing any guy can think of...
