The Snuggle Is Real: Why Superheroes Make the Best Huggers on National Hug Day

In honor of National Hug Day, we’re celebrating the superheroes who give the best hugs ever. What’s better than an epic embrace from a superhero to make your day? Hugs from those with super-strength come with an added dose of comfort, warmth, and fuzziness. Super squeezes have mended broken hearts, saved citizens from the brink, and even thwarted villains.

From the most muscular mutants to caped crusaders, comic history is filled with larger-than-life characters who give the best hugs ever. They take hugging to new heights, so get ready for some rib-crushing with a heart of gold. Here are some of the greatest huggers in comics who prove hugs really can solve anything.
The Man of Steel and Velvet: How Superman’s Hugs Turn Bad Days Good
Supes is the OG of super squishes. He may be faster than a speeding bullet, but he always takes it slow with his signature Superman Squeeze. He’s got to control all that Kryptonian power when wrapping Lois Lane in his brawny arms. His hugs must be magic because they can even fix Lois’s bad hair days. Crimefighters need TLC too, so Superman is sure to catch Batman in a super bear hug whenever the Dark Knight’s feeling broody. Want to give your loved one a Superman-level hug? With our personalized comics, you can actually make them the hero of their own story!
From Rock Solid to Soft Pebbles: The Thing’s Secret Hugging Talents
The ever-lovin’ blue-eyed Thing of the Fantastic Four excels at embrace excellence. His orange rocky arms are perfect for encompassing the whole gang. Getting hugged by old Ben Grimm must feel like getting a hug from a big comfy boulder. The Thing might look hard as rocks (because he is), but his hugs are as soft as orange pebbles can be. If you’ve ever wanted to be as huggable as The Thing, our custom superhero portraits can make that rock-solid dream come true!
The Lasso of Love: Why Wonder Woman’s Hugs Are More Powerful Than Her Sword
Don’t let her warrior rep fool you. Wonder Woman is a pro at warm, fuzzy squeezes with her super strength. She turns her Lasso of Truth into a Lasso of Hugs for distressed citizens. And who wouldn’t want to get tied up in her confident cuddles? (Hand raised!) She uses that divine compassion in the Justice League, giving the Flash encouraging bear hugs when he runs too fast and keeping brooding Batman upbeat with regular arm squeezes. Turn the special woman in your life into a real-life Wonder Woman with our custom comic strips, complete with Lassos of Love and any other heroic accessories you wish to add.
Fuzzy Logic: Beast’s Warm Embraces That Are as Cozy as They Are Clever
He may resemble Bigfoot, but Beast knows how to hug like a champ. The furry blue X-Man envelops his fellow mutants in full-body fuzzy embraces like a natural. Getting hugged by Beast is basically getting wrapped up in a warm, living blanket. And when he’s not saving the world, Hank McCoy is likely working on a PhD thesis about the therapeutics of hugs. What a genius! Beast may be working on the therapeutics of hugs, but we’ve mastered the art of capturing your life’s greatest hugs in fully personalized comic book gifts and superhero artwork!
Ending on a Squeezy Note: Why Superhero Hugs Are the Ultimate Bad Day Fixer
In the action-packed world of comics, even the mightiest heroes and villains need a hug sometimes. So whether it’s the comforting caress of Superman’s steel arms, the entire body fuzziness of Beast, or Wonder Woman’s Lasso of Hugs, a warm embrace packs more power than any evil-fighting punch or thunderbolt. Superhero stories are larger than life, and their hugs are too—the stuff of legend and bad day cure-alls. We should all be so lucky to get hugged like the world needs saving by these masters of epic embraces.
