Featuring wholesome gooses, gooses in superhero costumes, goose facts and character analysis.

Clark goose/ super goose

When figuring out what breed Clark would be upon careful consideration: Clark would be a hybrid pf the dewlap Toulouse goose (as seen below) and the Tula fighting goose.

(I considered making Clark a magpie goose, as they are the only living members of the anseranatidae and not technically geese, however they didn’t match his actual character that much besides that)

The dewlap Toulouse is bred for meat, symbolic of how Clark was born to a dying people, who despite being condemned to die before birth survived. Think lamb to the slaughter but goose

- obviously the farm boy had to be a farm goose

- this breed is classified as a heavy weight breed, they are generally gentle giants, this matches his character really well

- I was watching James Gunn talk about how Superman's suit is supposed to make him look huggable. Hence this selection

Adds to his "superness" that he can fly seeing as this goose is most definitely flightless

- certain dewlap Toulouse have bright red beaks and feet, which reminds me of the superman suit, specifically the boots.

And now for Clark’s other half, the Tula fighting goose

- the Tula fighting goose is bred to fight for entertainment, I see superman connecting more to the fighting goose persona and Clark being more of a domestic farm goose

- in duels the Tula goose wins against its Kline t by pushing them out of the wing or subduing them by clasping their sebaceous gland. Their fighting does not revolve around blood shed or killing the opponent. This resembles supermans fighting style and values as a superhero

- the Tula fighting goose has a parrot like beak ideal for clasping onto its opponents feathers. I imagine Clark to have the body of a dewlap Toulouse goose and the beak and wings of a Tula goose

BRUCIE GOOSIE/ GOOSEMAN

Bruce is a swan goose x Canada goose hybrid (see bellow)

- The way the average Canadian talks about Canada geese very much resembles how one would discuss a fearsome vigilante

- the Brucie Wayne persona plays up his swan goose side.

- like how Batman is a hero who is highly accomplished and powerful despite not being a meta human, gooseman is a goose breed that's survival is based around flight, while himself being flightless due to his domestic goose genetics. Despite this he is just as fearsome as his flying counterparts

- the death of his parents is partially accredited to the Waynes being flightless

- geese are very eager to adopt babies. Any baby and all baby.

This is how brucie goosie ends up with so many goslings

- Canada geese come across mean and aggressive, however this aggression stems from a determination to protect its family and gaggle. Similar to Bruce's will to better Gotham

-its protectiveness makes the Canada goose unlikely to trust

- Canada goose hybrids tend to have interesting patterning often with odd patches of white. Bruce has a tuxedo like pattern

Bonus Superbat + the Kent’s with their giant gosling

this started out as something silly but i got too excited about the little goose outfits...

the canada geese where i live are so weirdly tame and i can't get over how curious they are.

they approached me so many times while i was at this marsh i found by some hospital place and then one started following this poor woman back to her car 😭
