Move over, Rooster!
Might not apply to dog superheros, though.
BEIJING (Reuters) - Chinese tradition holds 2006 will be a year of bad luck for people born under the sign of the dog, but misfortune has come early for some looking for jobs, state media said on Wednesday.
Chinese companies looking for new recruits had deliberately passed over candidates born as dogs in China's ancient 12-animal astrological cycle to ward off the bad luck expected for people in years of their same sign, the China Youth Daily said.
The rooster will make way for the dog at Chinese Lunar New Year in late January.

Dang. Looks like I picked the wrong superhero to be. Just my luck! Hmmm. Maybe I could be mightymouse in 2006. I still have a few days to make the transformation.
