Greetings, true believers.

Are you ready for one of the biggest crossover events in comic history? Yes, even bigger than Archie vs. Predator! Maybe not quite as big as Godzilla vs. Charles Barkley, but still pretty big. It’s up there.

Earth’s mightiest heroes have assembled once again, but this time in sandwich cookie form for the new “Stuf of Legends.” They’ve made the jump from the printed page and the big screen onto… Oreo wafers.

Does that sound fun? Well, this might be the laziest issue of “What If” ever.

Stuf of Legends are just regular Oreos with a twist. Not the classic Oreo twist, you can still do that, but these cookies have a gray colored crème that turns blue. That’s essentially it. And here I thought heroes never dye.

Almost 90 years of creative inspiration to pull from the pages of Marvel Comics, and this is what they landed on. Ya know what? Fine. That’s fine. Excelsior!

Who am I to judge? I couldn’t muster even a few “creative” alternatives.

I was trying to think of some Marvel heroes that changed color, and… yeah, don’t bother Googling that, lest you want to hear the worst people’s stupid opinions on which Captain America is better. No, they didn’t ruin your childhood, MagnetoMike73.

Speaking of Cap, he’s joined by a couple dozen of his fellow heroes/anti-heroes/mutants/robots/aliens/I think one dude is just a regular non-powered guy – the whole gang’s here embossed on the cookies, which I guess is the ultimate selling point. It’s cool, but I still wish they did something more interesting flavor-wise.

I took a picture of all the characters and team logos represented in my pack. Feel free to see if you can name them all. Hint – they’re all Skrulls!

Do you want me to review an Oreo? These taste exactly the same, although I do believe they are slightly dryer. Perhaps it’s the gray crème with the little white thumbprint of it all.

As far as the crème goes, I dipped it and also did the typical untwist-and-lick technique, and the gray-to-blue transition was uninspired at best. If I had to rank these amongst the myriad of Oreo variants we’ve seen in the past decade, I’d say they are about a Thor: Love in Thunder out of Avengers: Infinity War. I still like ’em, but they aren’t going near the top.

While the imagery of the blue crème doesn’t exactly pop off the page, it did make my mouth extremely blue – not even Beast blue, I’m talking navy Nightcrawler blue. I spared you all the pic of my disgusting maw. They didn’t even really turn the milk blue, which I assume was intentional, so as to not run into brand confusion with Disney’s other rapidly declining blockbuster property.

So, we’ve got dressed up O.G. Oreos in one of three “collectable” bags, with various, almost indecipherable characters chiseled on the cookies. They’re worth picking up as a one-time purchase if you’re a fan of the MCU – Mondelez Cookie Umbrella.

That said, if you don’t care, skip ’em. The blue isn’t fun enough to warrant what I fear is coming next. As Uncle Ben says, “With blue power comes green… well, you know.”

Cute, but hopefully DC and Hydrox cook up something a little more creative.
