But Green Arrow isn’t a generic sort of superhero like Superman and Batman. His super-ness is mostly confined to his use of the bow and arrow. So unless you can demonstrate that there’s something about chili that makes it prone to be improved by being prepared via bow and arrow, there’s no reason to suppose that Green Arrow is a SUPER chili cooker – just one of those guys who hangs around at chili cook-offs hawking the chili made with the Guatemalan insanity peppers.
Excellent reference. I will quibble with that website, due to the following quote:
What a friggin’ pussy! A T of chili powder is nothing, and he obviously has no idea what he’s talking about. If he wanted to reduce the heat of that chili, all he had to do was remove the cayenne powder, which is nothing but heat. Decent looking chili, aside from the blasphemy of the amount of tomatos and beans.
Nope. The X-Men have been pimpslapped clear out of this. We have proof that a JLA member cooks and enjoys chili. All we have for the X-Men is conjecture.
Color this argument over.
Wolverine making chili? Do I have to point out the obvious? The man is Canadian. Which means chilly is a weather condition in his cultural background not a part of his cuisine.
Eh, For raw physicality, Marvel and J’onn are a bit sub-Superman. They could certainly help, but I don’t know that it’d be turning the tide. One of them would have to fight the Hulk, too.
As for Atom - The Silver Surfer beats him like a red-headed stepchild, and kicks him an extra time for ripping off the shiny metal look.
I’d imagine the definition of “cuisine” for Logan with respect to chili would consist of a slightly warm tin of Dinty Moore. His world travelling hasn’t exactly been on the backs of a 1,000 naked slaves with a harem of veiled concubines at his beck and call.
Absolutely not. That’s my preferred mode of choice. But Wolvie’s has usually been via sewage tubes and various armits of society, where a pot of red is hard to find. (Not to say that scrounging up a pint of plain in a moment’s notice hasn’t been difficult for him, though.)
Oh yeah? Have you seen how versatile that guy’s arsenal is? I’ll bet he has a beef-chopping arrow for just such an emergency. And in a chili cook-off, even if he wasn’t the super chili chef that the link earlier in this thread says he is, he could still use the propeller on the end of his Flying Arrow to stir the chili pot.
