Who is Michael's favorite superhero and why do they admire them?

Mikey’s favorite superhero is the Hulk! He admires Hulk because even though he’s big, strong and sometimes scary, he has a kind heart and is a gentle giant. We actually call Mikey our gentle giant because he is very tall for his age but incredibly kind, caring and gentle with others. He sees that same goodness in Hulk and loves that being strong doesn’t mean you can’t be kind.


Where did Michael's love of superheroes come from?

Mikey’s love for superheroes started with Avengers. The first movie he watched was when we brought him home from the hospital after he was born. It was the middle of COVID, so we spent those early days at home, cuddled up together, cruising through the wave with our favourite movies. Marvel quickly became a special part of those memories.


What superpower would Michael want and why?

Mikey would choose super strength, just like Hulk! He says, “I want to protect people and protect people who need me. I don’t want anyone to feel scared. I’ll help everyone smile.” His biggest superpower would be using his strength to help others and make them feel safe.
