Superhero culture seems to play a similar part to ancient mythology, with superheroes being the modern equivalent of gods and demigods. So, you may be excused for wondering if Santa may, in fact, be yet another superhero. Confessions of the Professions has the answer for us, in the form of a helpful infographic.
Merry Christmas and happy holidays, everyone!
Merry Christmas to you and your family, Nicholas.
Best wishes, Pete.

Merry Christmas, Nicholas and family. I hope Santa managed all those presents, and brought lots to your little one. He most certainly is a superhero.

More or less. Being Jewish, I’m just enjoying the day off and trying to figure out what’s open for dinner. 😀

Technically it’s the reindeer that are responsible for the incredible travel speed, and they presumably have super-strength too since Santa usually flies with eight or nine at most. (Also they can fly.)

That’s a good point. Then again, what’s a superhero without a good sidekick?
