Marvel Superheroes Join Bangkok Protests

Written by Karl Dahlfred on .

Anyone who has lived in Thailand for some period of time knows that Thai people like to have fun.  If it is not fun, why do it?  Even work has to be fun.  And apparently some people think that protesting government corruption has to be fun too. 

One of the odd trends that is emerging in the Bangkok protests is for people to dress up like Marvel superheroes (okay, it's only 2 so far but I am hopefully waiting for Ironman to make an appearence).   I'm not sure what to make of this, but at the very least it says something about the importance of fun in Thai culture.

Spiderman

Thor

Predator, Ironman, and Bumblebee

[Update December 9, 2013] Okay, so they aren't all Marvel, or even heroes, but pretty cool all the same.  And I got my wish that Tony Stark would make an appearance.
