In all my years of reading superhero comics, I've only come across one character who celebrates Easter, the biggest Christian holiday of the year. That character was Clark Kent's boss Perry White in Action Comics #461 (1976). It's barely a mention (circled in red below), but I'll take it.
Like Perry, I'll be spending a quiet weekend with my family during this special time (though I won't be regaling grandchildren with tales of youthful glory...not yet anyway!).
Have a great weekend (and a wonderful Easter to my fellow Christians) and I'll see you on Monday!

And Perry wants to be alone with the kids, why? To tell some pervo story?
Happy Easter!

No. To fill their lungs with second-hand cigar smoke! Thanks Grandpa!
Happy Easter to everyone.

Well I'm late to the show, but I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter!
Wow!, I'm amazed that it's that difficult to find a reference to Easter in a comic!
I guess I never really thought to look before.
