Although the years go fast for every one of us, it’s not very common to see this natural process of aging in cartoons or comics. Have you ever wondered what would happen if our beloved characters and superheroes just grew old and retired, like any other mortal person in the world?

Lesya Guseva is a Perm-based Russian artist who just made it easier for us to imagine this scenario. This artist created a series of illustrations called “Pensioners” where she portrayed some of our favorite Marvel, DC and even Disney characters finally taking their well-deserved rest and just enjoying their normal lives as older people. Have you ever tried to imagine Thor making a birdhouse with his little grandson, Spider-Man knitting with his wife, or Minnie and Mickey Mouse celebrating their 90 birthdays at Disneyland? Scroll down to see them all here for yourself!

The bird is actually from the russian cartoon series Three from Prostokvashino. Look, https://images.duckduckgo.com/iu/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fimage.tmdb.org%2Ft%2Fp%2Fw533_and_h300_bestv2%2FbNLKkWskCiKO8IWoPoiGT3MxarS.jpg&f=1

Thor spends the night with this woman and the next morning he says ‘I have to tell you who I am…I’m Thor,’ and she says ‘You’re thor? I can hardly walk!’”

Ha ! you beat me to it! Well done. This joke never gets old. Insert various names depending on politics / fashions / films..whatever. Australia women a bit famous Ita Buttrose had a lisp, making the joke that bit more funny :).

I thought Spiderman would be shooting webbing out so ,(um which girlfriend is this? ) could knit an eternal scarf... On an unrelated subject... Did their spiderlings get spider powers?
