Real Superheroes & Villains!

1. I don't see alot of crime. Hear about it, but don't see it. Chances are, if a crime is made known, the cops are going to be there FIRST. Not you. Unless you're there to witness the crime, in which case:

2. if your there to witness the crime, do you need an alias to stop it? say someone being mugged? I'd use every available power to stop a mugging if I saw it, cape or none.

3. Any real crime, believe it or not, you're not governed by an alternate law of gravity like batman. You fall that far, you're going to the hospital. You get shot, bullet proof vest or not, you're not going to keep walking. In order to pull off bullet-proofness like the movies you'd need a suit that would make walking impractical. It's why police officers practice avoiding getting shot. And, as in any real crime, they are going to have guns.

yeah. the only real problem is that you would totally get your ass kicked in like a day.

Actually I believe Killdozer to be a hero. A martyr to the little man who gets ****ed over by big business and politics.

" In the back is Master Legend’s workshop, a converted garage where he develops various weapons, like the Master Blaster: a six-foot-long silver cannon fueled by cans of Right Guard that can shoot “a variety of projectiles,” including stun pellets made from plastic Easter eggs filled with cayenne pepper and rock salt"

.......Awesome.

Because the "super" in super heroes is an important factor, otherwise your gonna die rapid fashion.

Let's look at people with superhuman abilities as well! There are some interesting cases around, like The Iceman

There uaesd to be a member of this Board who called himself "Master Bruce" and then "starscream". He claimed that he used to wear goalie equipment and then go out on the streets and fight crime.

He claimed to be a martial artist with near super powers (ie could lift 500 pounds, super reflexes, etc) it was actually quite funny. I wish I could find those old posts.

Heh. Glad someone read the article. It's crazy fun to think about someone actually doing this.
