J.K. Simmons has recently tickled the collective funny bone of social media users after he recreated the "Are you sure?" Omni-man meme for Ben Affleck. Both actors were at the premiere for Amazon MGM's The Accountant 2 on April 16th when this funny episode unfolded.

In a perfect crossover between animation and real life interaction, this celebrity-coded moment launched a wave of funny memes and reactions on social media.

Ben Affleck said,

“Hopefully now I can be in the meme, as my kids tell me that’s when you’ve made it”

The Invincible fans who follow the lore by heart instantly recognized and acknowledged how good of a job was done. They thoroughly praised Simmons, who has previously claimed acclaim as J Jonah Jameson (that photographer who chased Spidey's dark side like a toddler on candy quest).

Ben Affleck is no stranger to the superhero spotlight. He has been in the DC Extended Universe, and shone bright with a career that boasts roles in movies like Good Will Hunting and Argo. His involvement in this meme brings it all together in a wholesome pop culture moment.

What is the Omni-man meme?

The meme in question originated from Invincible, a superhero series that gained many accolades. Like the Simmons remake, the exact moment from which the meme belongs is equally hilarious. As Mark tries to inform his parents about his newfound powers, Omni-man just non-chalantly replies with 'Are you sure?' (Talk about dinner table conversation with parents.)

That sentence itself went to become one of the most rapidly used meme-templates of all time.
