Comics
As far as comic book characters go, few would argue that Superman is the most well-known.
In fact, if you were to go up to an average Australian in the street and ask if they knew who Superman is, you’re pretty much guaranteed to get a reply along the lines of “He flies”, or “He wears his underwear on the outside,” or “He has a big S on his chest.”
There’s also the old ‘Chuck Norris’ joke: Superman and Chuck Norris once fought for the title of ‘strongest man in the universe’. The loser had to wear their underwear on the outside.

DC Comics is about to publish a series in which the Justice League of America fights crime alongside The 99 – the world’s first Islamic superheroes.
Jabbar the Powerful joins forces with The Incredible Hulk. Burqa babe Batina the Hidden teams up with Wonder Woman, the Not So Hidden. Just imagine the conversation.

"A teacher at Geelong Grammar had criticised her for using words that were too long, which had left her confused and had made her doubt her ability to write essays. She became ''quite distressed'' when her English marks began to fall." I can sympathise.
