Mar 15 2010Forget Dogs, Wolverines Can Play Poker Too
This is a take on C.M. Coolidge's famous dogs playing poker paintings. Except, instead of dogs, it's a bunch of wolverines! Except, instead of wolverine animals, it's a bunch of the superhero! You know, the one with the, uh, aluminumtanium claws. Huh? OF COURSE I'M QUALIFIED FOR THIS JOB.
Thanks to Jessie, who once put Wolverine's cigar out in his eye and called him a cat. Whoa, Jessie, he's actually in the weasel family.
