He also didn't waste any time in getting down to bidness. 

Take a look at Wolverine getting a smooch on with the bisexual Hercules after the jump!

While an aged version of Christian Bale's Batman would employ the ideal baritone integral to any Dorothy Zbornak ripoff, does Superman have the necessary bedpost notches to qualify as Blanche? 

Still, the Super Friends—meets—Golden Girls mash-up, "Super Golden Friends," easily takes the cheesecake Video of the Day crown.

But with today's first look as Ruffalo as the classic Marvel character, we might have opened up more than just our legs to the idea! Take a look at Ruffalo's Hulk, after the jump!
