    12 Superheroes Who Should Be On '70s Vans


    Ever wonder what Superheroes would look best splashed on a "Shaggin' Wagon"? Well wonder no further cause Jesse sent me this funny piece from Maxim today that answers that nagging question once and for all.
    Check out the 12 Superheroes Who Should be on '70s Vans

    Here is my personal favourite:

    Mike Grell's Warlord, I could so totally see this parked at Wal-Mart somewhere....

      I gotta go with Shang Chi- it just says 70's! In all honesty, that's because there wasn't a Luke Cage version with a chain for a steering wheel and chains around the license plate and tires.

      This is a brilliant combo and, for the most part, the choices are great. I wouldn't minded seeing a Blade (comic version) van.

                    How did I never notice that Shang Chi looked a LOT like Bruce Lee?

                    Right down to the super-ripped abs, nunchucks, and jet black hair.

                    Am I the ONLY one who never noticed?

                    HEY! Is there a fig of him on this board?

                        How in the wide world of sports is Power Pack number 1? I'd rather see something like Swamp Thing.

                          the Ghost Rider, Warlord, and Silver Surfer mock ups look pretty good!

                          We have a plumbing company here in Calgary called "Pete the Plumber" who used to paint superheroes (usually holding a pipewrench) on the sides of their service vans. They got a cease and desist, and now use a blueish tinged Hulk "like" character on their stuff. Before that they had a Batman van, Spidey, the Fantastic Four, Spawn (?), and Hulk. ...and many more.

                            No Hulk? No Morbius? No Luke Cage and Iron Fist? Spider-Woman? Come on!
