Lessee, “Flaming Carrot” = parody, “Blue Beetle” = not a parody.
It’s kinda hard to keep track, sometimes.
Hawkeye’s real name is/was Clint.
Of course, neither of the given examples is as much of an issue now that all the comic lettering is done by computer (and some titles even use lowercase letters).
Famously NOT the case with Spiderman and The Night Gwen Stacy Died - Wikipedia
What? NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
To be fair, it’s possible he broke her neck after she was already dead…
That now matter what may be happening, dire galactic-wide oblivion, death-dealing maniacs, petty street crime, reality-warping madmen, sanity-stealing elder gods, or evil scientist trying to end all life…
All problems can be resolved by throwing fruit pies at them.
Little kids whose first language is English speak pidgin, using “me” in place of “I”. I’ve never heard a real kid talk that way.
I realize it’s something pretty small, but it sticks out every time I see it. It’s as though comic writers never get the opportunity to reproduce and raise kids of their own.
Psychotherapist: I’m going to cure the Joker!
Random Nurse: Did you ever hear about what happened to Dr. Harleen Quinn?
Psychotherapist: So the Joker’s a little crazy. Aren’t we all? (Applies for job at Sing Sing the next day)
Brightly-colored spandex leotards are more practical in combat than the loose-fitting camouflage fatigues inexplicably favored by most military organizations.
You can capture criminals and turn them over to the police without being arrested yourself as a vigilante.
Well, you can do that IRL too, if you witness the crime and make a citizen’s arrest. Vigilantism isn’t making a citizen’s arrest, it’s passing judgment on criminals outside of a court of law.
And Spidey’s been harassed by Gwen Clones aplenty ever since.
So, if a Hero screws up…The Clones are gonna gitchya if’n you don’t watch out! 
No matter how massive the event; invasions of aliens and demons and gods and so forth, none of the major countries or well known real world cities like New York are ever destroyed, or even suffer permanent harm or change to landmarks. A bunch of terrorists on a plane can take out the WTC; Galactus the World Eater can’t.
Except in alternate universes, where everybody becomes un-nerfed.
In alternate universes, everyone tends to use their powers to greater effect, and actions have large scale consequences. In the main universe, you might as well laugh at the supervillain who threatens to nuke New York; the bomb will never go off. In an alternate universe, it probably will.
Lesson : Hope like hell you’re not in an alternate universe.
•Alternate universes rarely turn out to be better than the “baseline” universe. Likely, if there’s any marked improvement in one area, there’s likely to be some horrific tradeoff somewhere else. (Two possible explanations: a) Karma/The Universe/The Force does actually tend to balance itself out in the long run, or b) the comic gods are fickle and sadistic, but don’t like to be second-guessed.)
•Any being who fights on behalf of the Christian god is probably a dick. (With the exception of vampire hunters.)
•No matter what universe you go to, you’ll usually be able to find a Cthulhu analogue.
•If you can manage to be viewed as “operating at a level beyond human understanding” (or some similar wording), there’s no limit to all the arbitrary, callous, self-righteous, bizarre shit you can get to pull off. Cause, y’know…God/Elder Gods/Super Intellects/Vorlons work in mysterious ways, so who are mere humans to judge you?
Crap, missed the editing window—ah, the first one in that last post was more of a corolary to Der Trihs’ observation. Inspired by, you might say.
I know you care.
If you have one power, say laser beam eyes or bees shooting out of your mouth, that’s all you can use! God forbid you should also be known for carrying an electro-baton or a big gold chain.
Nope it’s laser beam eyes only, may as well put that cybernetic combat armor back on the shelf because we’re not buying it and you’re not taking it home.
Or a vampire himself. 
Or consider The Crossbreed.
Which brings up another important point: The primary work of the Catholic Church is not leading souls to salvation, but hunting vampires and other supernatural monsters.* Every great once in a while a priest may take a few minutes to preside over a marriage or funeral, but other than that it’s all about the vampire hunting.
If non-vampire hunting Christians tend to be dicks, maybe that’s the reason; they know that their faith isn’t strong enough to allow them to hunt vampires. That’s got to be fairly humiliating.
*Although to be fair, I first learned this from the movies rather than comic books.
You should be grateful if you never, ever, ever see anybody from your country in comic books written by people from another country. Because the few times you do see someone from your country, you’ll wonder whether you should shot yourself or the writer (Empath is a dick, but compared with El-Aguila-I-think-he-was-called he’s a shining representative of Spanish youth, yessiree).
Colombians and Mexicans living in, respectively, Colombia and Mexico, speak and spell Spanish like freakin’ gringos, including a disturbing love for adressing their superiors as “mi jefe”.
The only countries south of Rio Grande and north of Anctartica are Mexico, Colombia and a bunch of places with names like La Republíca de los Garbanzos Coloraos which can not be found in any map outside of a comic book.
Wasn’t Marvel’s Hawkeye named Clint?
