Superheroes, the universe's answer to the ever-present question, 'Who will save us now?' often dressed in spandex, which is a textile with the uncanny ability to simultaneously shrink-wrap one's dignity along with their body. These beings of immense power, questionable fashion choices, and often-complicated backstories, grace various galaxies with their antics of morality and muscle. They are known for their unique abilities, such as flying without the benefit of an Electronic Thumb, seeing through solid objects with less radiation than a microwave burrito, and lifting objects that would make a Vogon Constructor Fleet feel a bit inadequate.
When traveling to a superhero-infested metropolis, ensure your insurance covers 'Acts of Heroism' and carry a portable hole to jump into at the first sign of falling debris.
Superheroes can be predominantly found in cities with an excess of skyscrapers and a severe shortage of common sense. Alternatively, check any nearby phone booths, assuming you can find one not already converted into a quaint coffee shop.
Befriending a superhero is not recommended for those fond of privacy, calm Sunday brunches, or low life insurance premiums. Additionally, avoid attending events with 'Doom', 'Apocalypse', or 'Unveiling' in the title if you're not fond of uninvited power-clad guests.
The capes, often worn as a fashion statement by the more flamboyant superheroes, were originally intended as napkins for intergalactic food festivals, but a misdelivery turned them into the iconic accessory we know today.
Looking for the superhero experience without the risk of disintegration? Try 'Capes & Lattes' – the first café where you can enjoy a cosmic cappuccino while wearing a cape of your choice. Disclaimer: Capes do not endow the wearer with superpowers, flight is not recommended.

The Zebra is a peculiar creature often mistaken for a horse in pyjamas or the result of an indecisive designer who couldn't choose between black and white. Known for their dazzling stripes, which confuse predators, fashion designers, and occasionally themselves, zebras are the galactic standard for standing out in a crowd, even when the crowd is, in fact, other zebras.

Venus, the second rock from the Sun, named after the Roman goddess of love and beauty, has long been devoid of moons, satellites, or even party invitations from the more popular planets. This lack of celestial company has led to various hypotheses, including the idea that Venus, in a fit of pique, once had moons but uninvited them due to their poor table manners and incessant lunar howling. The truth is a tad more scientific but infinitely less exciting – Venus simply doesn't have any moons. Some say it's due to its overbearing gravity, while others believe the moons are just fashionably late.
