One of Nascimento's earliest strips plays on the logistics involved in Spider-Man swinging through a city with his webs. He obviously affixes his webs to the sides of buildings and then propels himself forward as he releases his earlier web and shoots a new one. However, what happens if a window is open on one of the buildings he shoots his webs at...
An amusing piece of confusion among comic book fans -- and even some comic book writers -- is how Cyclops' eye beams work, exactly. They look like lasers being shot out of his eyes, just like Superman's heat vision. In actuality, though, they are beams of concussive force. Thus, when Cyclops tries to shave himself with his eye blasts like Superman ...
A recurring gag that Nascimento uses in his strips is to highlight the fact that Batman is a billionaire whose superpower is, essentially, that he is rich, while Spider-Man has "Parker luck" and thus rarely has money. So Nascimento will do strips contrasting their respective lifestyles. For instance, he might see Batman replace a Batsuit with a sma...
Often, Nascimento will look to simply absurdist humor for good effect. In this cartoon, we see a number of kids dressing up on Halloween to go trick or treating to get their fair share of candy goodness. Mixed with the trick or treaters is Ghost Rider, whose everyday visage is scarier than any costume that anyone could come up with and yet he decid...
Comic books are well known for their instances of artistic license with certain aspects of superhero designs. For example, Batman's cape sometimes unfurls to an absurd length in certain panels while being normal length in other panels. Similarly, in Batman: The Animated Series, Batman's pupils seemingly vanish while he is wearing his mask on the sh...
As noted earlier, Spider-Man routinely travels through New York City via his webs and his wall-crawling. As a result of this method of transportation, he is is reliant on the city itself being in good shape. For instance, what if he shoots his web onto a flag pole that then broke off? Similarly, like in this cartoon, when Spider-Man is crawling on ...
A common gag that Nascimento goes to in his strips is the notion that Superman doesn't realize quite how strong he is. So he keeps injuring his Justice League teammates by accident. Like when he gives Batman the Heimlich Maneuver and breaks his spine. Similarly, here he tries to dislodge a piece of hot dog from the Flash's throat but instead ends u...
Akira Toriyama’s Goku (from Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z) is fascinating in how much he evokes other famous superheroes. Nascimento makes that clear in this clever bit where he contrasts Goku's early years with Wolverine's time in Weapon X. Goku, you see, has hair that sticks up, he is initially very short while being very strong and he had memory...
Batman is famous for how often he fights in the darkness and how he uses the shadows to great effect. Think of how many classic Batman comic books, cartoons and films cloak Batman in silhouettes during an action sequence. In this running gag, Nascimento plays on that standard type of Batman story by opening the strip with a typical instance of croo...
Another one of Nascimento's more absurdist cartoons shows a role reversal with Spider-Man and buildings. As we noted earlier, Spider-Man is famous for web-slinging from building to building in New York City and wall-crawling on buildings, as well. Well here, instead of the usual setup of Spider-Man crawling up the side of a building, it is an anthr...
