I stumbled upon something. Something awesome. Something that just makes me so happy in so many different ways....
There have been little internet snippits about a guy who dresses up as a superhero and fights crime. He's called Phoenix Jones, and he looks pretty silly.
But, here's the thing. I found a site with a crap ton of these people.

Really, you should read this stuff :)
Hahahahahhahahah....interesting how lack of creativity brings such awesome superhero names: Danger man, Dangerwoman (not related), King Snake, Lady Hero, Life, Mr. Jack, Mr. Extreme, Super Animal, Super Gay, Superhero, etc.
And why are there so few superheroines? :(
Back in the 90s there was a dude in the U.S. who patrolled the streets in a batmobile looking thing that would help people who had broke down and needed mechanical help, a gas refill, a ride somewhere, etc...He was odd, but a good guy just trying to help out. Thats about the extent that these "superheros" should go.
When Babar put Mr. Jack on his list of uncreative names I was expecting just a dude called Jack in a cheap mask. But this dude's awesome

He's like a scary, scary, otherworldly harbinger of... blood drives and fund-raising for the homeless.
This guy has an animation degree: http://reallifesuperheroes.org/wiki/index.php?title=Urban_Avenger This could be me in a few years! He also lives in San Diego so I imagine if you planning to commit an act of supervillainy there then during the comic convention would probably be a pretty safe bet for the time to do it.
Seen this website some time ago. Bunch of wierdo's.
Check the wiki pages of them b.t.w.
What the hell's wrong with King Snake??

If you like it so much, why don't you use it :P
Well I am a retired superhero sidekick.
Is this your former mentor, IndieBoy?
