COMIC COUNTERPARTS

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's... the latest installment of Geeky Astrology! As we find our way out of Aries season, we walk right into a month full of excitement and intrigue. In May we celebrated Free Comic Book Day, so we're here to show you who your comic hero counterpart is.

Scorpio

Wolverine stares menacingly forward, bearing his claws.

Wolverine
Marvel Comics

Keeping things close to your chest isn't out of the ordinary for you, but when someone gets to know you, they really get to know every part of you. You're fiercely loyal, no matter the cost, and you'll do what you have to to protect the ones you love.

Sagittarius
