ANIMATION OF THE DAY: If superheroes were hipsters
Wonder Woman piloting an invisible Prius? Thor as a manbagging art major? And Hulk wreaking havoc only ironically?
Hipsters routinely come in for cartoon mockery -- from the comic "Hipster Hitler" to the sketches in "Stuff Hipsters Hate." Today, though, we spotlight the latest inspired animation from the dependably sophomoric folk at College Humor.
From Wolverine's mentholated adamantium to Batman's following the light of trendy Twitterfeeds (which may or may nor include @HIPSTERHULK), here is their PBR-soaked take. Brooklyn is so close to Gotham and yet, obviously so very, very far.
