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.

    I once read a Russian folk tale that was sort of like Cinderella (orphan with an evil stepmother who makes the poor girl do all the work so her biological daughter can be pampered.)

    It ended with the spirit of winter killing both the stepmother and her daughter in a massive blizzard as punishment for them being too greedy and mistreating the other daughter. Much better ending imo those русские know what they're doing. I think the Soviets even made it into a movie with their own state owned, communist version of disney, where there are no princesses :lenin-pogger:
