No culture but the culture pushed on you by gigantic companies trying to sell you merch. Superman v Batman is exactly the same as traditions that have been evolving naturally for thousands of years. Buying a Spiderman backpack is equivalent to knocking on wood or leaving a shot of vodka out in the woods for the leshiy. In Ant Man's name, amen.

    The two best Russian fairytales:

    • Emelya who's so lazy he asks a wish-granting fish to animate his oven so he never has to walk and can just ride around on an oven instead

    • Danko who answers his own question "What would I do for the people?!" by ripping his flaming heart out of his chest and using it as a lantern to guide them. Maxim Gorky knew how to write communist fairytales. 😃
