Deadpool is American, but he was in Weapon X, he is all American though. He even took an order from the president to shoot his best buddy Cable without hesitation.

Sabretooth and Wendingo are not Super Heroes. You might want to change your title to Canadian Comic Book characters.
Good Display of characters though.

F@#$ Canada! We should have anotha US of A day... just kidding. The last thing we Americans need is another patriotic holiday to tell ourselves we're the best again ;)

My question is why would Canada need superheroes? Every time I go there, its clean as hell, theres no crime, and everybody pretty much gets along. I know thats not true 100%, but by and large it seems that way.

Not to be politically correct, but Everyone in the northen Hemisphere South of GreenLand & North of Guatemala--Belize are Americans. But most of the world would be referring to the U.S. thou we know what they mean.

Happy Canada Day to all Candaians like Shaman!!!!!

The only thing i'm wondering about Utah is... how the [frick] could all those MILFs actually marry the same fat [frick]. When you look at the news, you see all those hot foxy mommas with total douches... i think there's more than mere BIG LOVE goin on there. There's BRAINWASHING goin down in Utah fo sho!!! I mean, money alone can't buy you THAT much... can it??? One or two MAYBE... but SEVEN?!?!?!?!?!
