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 mean you joke but the collective energy both mental and emotional coalescing upon a singular concept shares similarities between the two things. Clearly one has a massive cultural heritage while the other one is pop consumer materialism born out of an artist's creation. Idk I kinda like the american gods way of conceptualizing this stuff.
