Heroes Reborn Drinking Game!

Well, somebody had to do it. ;)
The Unofficial Heroes Reborn Drinking Game!
Whee! More fun than Slip 'n Slide!
Take a sip whenever...
- any character's costume changes between panels (if you take full
drinks for this when reading Avengers #1, you'd obliterate your liver by
page 30 or so. Just sip.)
Take a drink whenever...
- Captain America spouts propaganda- no, it doesn't matter if it's to
his wife, his son, his co-workers or the villains
- Cap's shield is easily the best-coloured and illustrated item on the page
- In defiance of human physics, completely unaerodynamic planes are
shown zipping through the air above a battlefield
- Bouncing Boy, of the LSH, makes a guest appearance, masquerading as Duggan
- a villain explains their master plan or philosophy of life for no
apparent reason
- an Asgardian says something laughably lame
- chug if any character seems to notice exactly how stupid a line
it really is
- an Asgardian combines their Middle English speech patterns with 90s
expressions, usually with laughable results
- you find yourself saying "And I thought it couldn't get any worse..."
- a woman is shown that is *not* proportioned like a supermodel
- every time a so-called genius does something pretty stupid
- twice if it's not in Iron Man
- every time an previously obscure character is made prominent in the
plotline (only drink for their first appearance)
- whenever the Hulk's muscles change position and size between panels
- whenever someone thinks about something non-angstful
- when any character appears, due to bad use of perspective, to be
roughly as tall as a building
- an Avenger has their weapon readied in a completely
non-confrontational situation
- common household items are shown to be used without need of cables! Neat!
- a character's neck is portrayed as being wider than their skull
And, in Captain America or the second half of Avengers...
- any character displays a facial expression besides the following:
anger, extreme anger, surprise/shock, or happiness.
Chug the full contents of the nearest beer keg whenever...
- Hellcat has significant character development
- Captain America is portrayed as a real human being, with faults,
fears, and weaknesses
As always is the case, I welcome any additions to this list.
Specifically, you'll notice that I didn't bash FF and Iron Man as much as
Cap and Avengers. That's my personal bias, but this is an open list, so
if you want others to drink to the faults in HR FF, go right ahead. :)

In Avengers, take a sip for:
every splash page (you'll drunk off your ass in moments)
The Enchantresses's legs are bigger than most people (not people's legs,
bigger than most people)
every time it looks like Cap is missing finger or two.
In captain america:
That one scene with these two thugs where the ones foot is bigger than the
woman they are confronting. It's f'n lame.
Remember the name...
