Motivation, Marvel Style
R. Alex Whitlock
 "To fight when others fold, pursue while others retreat, conquer while others quit, and make right when all else is wrong."
Marvel has authorized a handful of motivation posters using its characters. While the original motivation posters are hokey and downright obnoxious, the parody demotivators are funny and these Marvel motivation posters are actually pretty cool.

Well, some of them. A few of them - such as Storm's - are little more than pin-ups for the characters. Others have rather hokey mottos, but then they got that from the original motivators. But the combination of ideals, advertising, and character description is really quite fascinating.

Note: The poster to the left says: "To fight when others fold, pursue while others retreat, conquer while others quit, and make right when all else is wrong."... you can see the full image by clicking on it.

Update: Heretical Ideas points to another site with funnier superhero motivation posters.

Comment spam is an ongoing problems that we're trying to address. Previously we required people to create accounts and log in. I am thankful to say that is no longer the case. We're giving Captcha another try and are playing around with a text-based Q&A variant of Captcha. So bear with us as we try to figure out how to best get a handle ont he problem. Please note that any comment on a post more than 30 days old will go into the moderation queue, where I will get to it when I can which could be once a week.
