As the saying goes, No Man is an Island. This also rings true for dogs which live in packs and for the last 3 years I've been the only dog in my pack. The addition of Pepper has elevated my ranking in the pack. Upon assuming the role of (kick ass - I mean this literally) mentor to her, I've decided to reflect on my Top 5 Super Heroes and their Sidekicks. Because let's face it, at one time or another, an extra pair of hands (or 2 extra pair of paws!) comes in handy.
5) Frodo Baggins and Samwise Gamgee
|
Imagine how scenic their photo montage must be! Hobbiton, Rivendell, Lothlorien. Sure Mordor and the Mines of Moria are a bit dour but it's like driving through South Central to get to Santa Monica - a bonding experience that gives Samwise more chance
to be all protective (in a creepy stalker-ish way) to Frodo |
4) Lone Ranger and Tonto
|
I've always wondered why Lone Ranger had a sidekick. I mean, his name insinuates that he should be keeping the wild west safe by his LONE-some self. Maybe his humans made him adopt Tonto...I feel you man, I really do |
3) Captain Kirk and Spock
|
I'd have thought that In a future where we have Universal Translators, Transporters and Replicators we'd be able to do away with sidekicks. But Captain Kirk would be lost without Spock. Humans...ever so needy! |
2) Han Solo and Chewbacca
|
I've always had a soft spot for Chewbacca. Misunderstood and a shadow to Han Solo when he is clearly the brains behind the operation. Plus he is just so dreamy, that luxurious fur and gorgeous colouring. I think my coat quite complements his! |
1) Batman and Robin
|
I've always wondered why Batman dressed Robin up in a red top and green short shorts.Surely this gives him away when they are trying to blend into the night fighting crime! I suppose since Robins come and go Batman must have thought he is easy enough to replace. |
And now:
|
Vicky and Pepper. The latest super hero and sidekick in Bukit Jelutong. And like Batman, I think all sidekicks are replaceable (I'm talking to YOU Pepper!) |
