Remember in old comics how the bad guys would be totally distracted by Hostess Fruit Pies, and then Batman would be like "it's a good idea to have a nap after a snack!" and punch them out? While they were driving cars on the freeway, no less!

T-Rex - OMG! - Nyah ha ha! Once I steal all the Hostess Fruit Pies and sell them at inflated prices, people will have to love me unconditionally!
Utahraptor - Not so fast! Hostess Fruit Pies aren't for stealing! They're for EATING!
T-Rex - OMG! - Mmm, you're right! Cherry... apple... grape! SO DELICIOUS!
Utahraptor - RAPTOR FRENZY ATTACK @$^!$!
T-Rex - OMG! - ow
Dromiceiomimus - Yay! Now we can buy our delicious Hostess Fruit Pies for their regular price again!
Utahraptor - All in a day's work, citizen! SUPER-RAPTOR AWAAAAY!

Also: Red Tornado was great.

Hostess fruit pies are the best things to be had from a vending machine.

When I go down to the vending area, and I see that one of the machines has the pies stocked, my day is made.

You can find a bunch of them here. Oddly, while reading them, I developed a strong hunger for pie. I GUESS ADVERTISING ACTUALLY WORKS

Did you see that one with Spiderman where he's fighting an evil female jujitsu master who apparently wants all up in his pie?

CLASSIC!

These are used to great effect in the recent Spider-Man/Human Torch #3.

Did anybody see this Flash one?

Seems to me that Flash hasn't really solved the problem.

Also, are these things translated from another language? The syntax in these comics is really off.

Why not?
He captured her, she will be too busy eating until he finds a way to prevent her from petrifying anything.

But to be honest, most of these don't make sense in the first place.

Because, as I understand it, everything she looks at turns to stone. Perhaps a blindfold would have been the wise course for ol' Feathershoes.

Wasn't Medusa supposed to have snake-hair?

And Cyclops just one eye, but, instead, it has two eyes and ruby glasses.
