Real Life Superheroes are a group of people that have risen above normalcy and societal constraints in order to serve the public good while maintaining a unique personality and look. The mere fact that these people brave the public in order to serve the greater good is commendable in its own right, but assuming the role of a superhero has greater implications in modern society. Becoming a Real Life Superhero upholds the American ideal of individuality over herd-like mentality. In a world in which less and less people deviate from the “norm” in order to pursue a positive dream, the existence of Real Life Superheroes serve as a beacon of hope and inspiration. Their message: with the right motivation, training, and goodwill anyone can rise above the norm - anyone can become a Superhero in some small way.
atdws on stage Anything To Do With Superheroes was formed when Tom (M) took a whole heap of CDs to Tom (B)s house. Tom (B) decided that Tom (M)s CDs were kinda neat so the two Toms then decided to form a band. Chris joined the Toms on drums. Tom (B) was grudgingly elected for the role of "hawt frontman" as it emerged that Tom (M) and Chris were possibly the worst singers in the history of everything.........ever. Playing some cover songs at leavers day was the bands first "gig" type thing. ( It's in speech marks because you cant really call it a gig if people are forced to watch).

Superheroes Superheroes and their derring-do are no longer confined to the cartoons, as a recent "biography" of Superman and this playfully entertaining collection of superhuman adventures attest. Coeditors Varley and Mainhardt wisely avoid episodes from the established superhero pantheon in favor of those from imaginative, even twisted, superhero variations. Using Varley's own wry tale of an invincible Soviet "Bolshoiman" as a springboard, they spotlight comic-book champions' often tongue-in-cheek literary cousins, from Captain Cosmos to Captain Housework. B. W. Clough, for instance, drolly recounts "the Gazorcher's" predicament of handing over "the goggles" to his Generation X-er daughter. Michael A. Stackpole in "Peer Review," ... takes a turn toward serious action-adventure as he treats one crime fighter's apparent defection into lawbreaking and his censure by fellow superheroes. In "Reflected Glory," Paul Kupperberg soberly demonstrates how today's world would really treat a superhero when a PR man slyly uses a superhuman vigilante to further his own career.
