Who would win in a fight, Batman or Superman?
Batman would win, because when he was in the Just League he always kept kryptonite in his utility belt in case of emergency.
What comic character do you most associate with?
I think I could associate with Peter Parker because he is a student who is a little geeky, who has many weaknesses, and does not want the ones he loves to get hurt.
What historical period would you like to visit most, and why?
I would want to visit the Renaissance to see all the new ideas, artwork architecture… Oh! And maybe meet some famous artists like Da Vinci.
If you could be an animal what animal would you be and why?
I would want to be a monkey because I could still do a lot of human things but I would be able to use my tail and swing through trees... which I can’t really do at all.
If you could be a celebrity for a day, which celebrity would you be?
A voice actor because I love doing voices and only a few people would recognize you so it wouldn’t be too overwhelming.
