...special for us comic geeks!
 In honor of ComicCon, I'm guessing. Definitely a bit of a DC bias there. Maybe Marvel tomorrow?

A bigger version of same.
And yeah, I've got my fingers crossed for a Marvel image tomorrow. Here's a whole raft of comics inspired google themes. Everything from Los Bros Hernandez to Snoopy to Fables to Captain America.

Perhaps DC was the only one to give Google permission to use their characters.

They picked my favorites, except for the stretchy guy.
Who is he? I have a very vague memory of somebody called Plastic Man, but other than Reed Richards, I can't think of anybody else.

Plastic man is happy go lucky, a goof, but very powerful and can hold his own in a fight. Elongated Man was as much a detective as a super hero, working with his wife Sue Dibny. [spoiler=Elongated Man spoilers] Sue came to an ugly end in a pretty controversial story a few years back, and Ralph fell apart and then appeared to some to become delusional searching for a way to bring Sue back to life. In the end, Ralph followed Sue to the other side while fighting a demon. Or did he? It is comics after all...[/spoiler]

Nice to see they used Jordan as the GL, but... no Supes?
