"BY MOST OBSERVERS' RECKONING, between 150 and 200 real-life superheroes, or "Reals" as some call themselves, operate in the United States, with another 50 or so donning the cowl internationally. These crusaders range in age from 15 to 50 and patrol cities from Indianapolis to Cambridgeshire, England. They create heroic identities with names like Black Arrow, Green Scorpion, and Mr. Silent, and wear bright Superman spandex or black ninja suits."

"Should a villain attack, the Emerald Enforcer carries a small arsenal to defend himself: smoke grenades, pepper spray, a slingshot, and a pair of six-inch fighting sticks tucked into sturdy leather boots. Leather guards protect Geist's arms; his signature weapon, an Argentinean cattle-snare called bolos, hangs from a belt-holster. "

A BAND OF BROTHERS I CAN RELATE TO.

I wonder how many criminals have actually been foiled by one of these guys, I bet they would be the laughing stock of their misfit friends. And I wonder how many of these guys have been shot.

I'm entertained

I wouldn't want to be a superhero

but I'd surely support one by helping him or her make their equipment
maybe arranging public appearances

1/16/2008 11:28:22 AM

personally, i'd be more interested in seeing some of these heroes' sidekicks

1/16/2008 11:42:15 AM

I'd like to see one "in action" against a thug on the street.
