Span-Englsih is even getting to the superheros
In a comic strip call Baldo ,the Sunday, October 4th 2009 there si a lot of slanf. here it goes,
Fist frame -Baldo says, "Que bello coche señor Burrito", pointing to a purple car that to me it looks like a soup up volswaken.
The owner of the car says -Mr Burrito or Mr Donkey in English- says,........ I pimped out this bomba myself,Baldo vato...meaning Yo lo hice todo,Baldo muchacho........................................................ Next frame..Baldo says-"Little Donkey,¿ que es es eso? Mr Burrito answers, " ¿que thing? ...meaning, ¿ que es qué?.......... next frame.....Mr Burrito looks down into his car and says "¡holly chorrizo!.. meaning holly cow or bendito sausage and adds " es un aparato electronico .....meaning it is a listening bug or in Spanish es un microfono...... next frame... Mr Burrito or little donkey rips out the microphone and says at the same time....... ¿what locos, planted this in my carucha? meaning ¿quien puso esto en mi coche?
The final frame shows Supeman, Wonder Woman , Batman and an unknown (to me) super hero wearing a red tights and two arrows coming out of his ears. Superman says" Well that ends our Spanenglish lessons, meaning, Bueno esto termina nuestras lecciones de span- ingles. see the comic strip at www.yahoonews.com Sunday, Oct.4 2009

It's Flash. The superhero, that is. And i believe the common term is Spanglish, not Spanenglish.
