    I know the photoshopped but I don’t get this one. It’s not a creative play on their request for superman, Aquaman, and the flash

      Yeah, I thought the joke in this one was weaker than usual too.

      I guess Aquaman as a firefighter makes sense, and so does a Flash as a delivery man, but Superman as a doctor isn’t as clear.

        I understood it as just being that doctors are superheroes cause of the nature of their work, superman just being your most generic type of superhero. though the interpretation works better if it was a nurse imo.

      Yeah it is. Doctors are Supermen for obvious reasons. Firefighters are aquamen because water. Delivery people are The Flash because of fast 2 day delivery. What don’t you get?
