It probably was only a matter of time, with Shaquille O'Neal pounding the superhero imagery from the day he arrived in south Florida ("I'm Superman, he's Flash"), before the big man and his Justice League sidekick Dwyane Wade wound up on the cover of a comic book.
Wade and O'Neal, the slice and dice of the Miami Heat, are joined this month by four other teammates on the cover of an actual, limited-edition "graphic novel" published by Publix supermarkets, with the first issue out and in Wade's hands at the end of his team's practice Wednesday morning. It isn't DC Comics or Marvel, those exclusive clubs of the superhero elite, but Wade still gets the glamour treatment, with the exaggerated V-shaped torso, pumped-up pectorals and bulging biceps. | Promote this thread! |             | JoshMann

Reposted on: 10.3.12 1356.33 | If Shaq in fact is Superman (and I'm tremendously biased about this), that makes Damon Jones either Lois Lane or Jimmy Olsen.
Although for being a matador on defense and disappearing from games, who's Eddie Jones, El Diablo?
Also, I'd be interested in seeing one of these done up for the Indiana Pacers. ARTEST SMASH!

Reggie Miller's in there somewhere ...
And I'm still looking for some pics of this new all-Heat comic.
