On Thursday in New York, the annual ComicCon convention opened, kicking off a four-day event where CosPlay is king. ANIMAL crashed the party and asked just one question: Which superhero would be best equipped to fight ISIS? Who better to ask than people whose imaginations are likely superior than the average person and who likely live in a fantasy world more often than not? Spoiler alert: Batman was the crowd fave.
