I have a very weird question but also I feel like you get way weirder ones.

I was just reading an MCU comic and came across this line. I immediately thought of the Good Omens line. One of my friends said it was a reference to the 1960s Howling Commando comics.

Are both GO and the MCU comic referring to a different thing that’s older than both or am I overthinking this?

neil-gaiman:

The Howling Commandos war cry was “Wah-Hooo!” which I always assumed sounded like a howling wolf.

“Wahoo!” is an interjection indicating enthusiasm, first recorded in 1904 in the Washington Post.
