For I... am a superhero.
See mine.It's like trading cards of sorts. And of course, while you're there... you can make your own.

The ability to upload your picture is there, but didn't work for me... might be the pesky firewall... dunno.

As I was growing up, really only dove into comicbook/super-hero land a few times. Kamen rider of course rocked the house Japan-style from ages 1-11. Ahhhhhhhhh V 3!!! (It's ok if you don't understand.) Although, I don't think it was ever made it to tv or film... Even Spiderman teamed up with KamenRider V3 to fight "evil".
Like hero icons?

StarWars everything enveloped a stretch in my youth... 6yrs-16ish? Good portion of my life, I'd say, was spent battling the evil empire and tearing down the dark side of the force... part of that while listening to Ozzy... oh the divine irony.

High school came, I was in the UK, and I was introduced to the badass futuristic American Hero/AntiHero: Judge Dredd. Later made into a horrible movie. To experience Dredd... read the comic novels.. Anthrax released a single in the UK (which I still have) that idolizes this badass beast of a hero, "I am the Law". B-side was "I am the Man"... one of the first playful rap-metal tracks by established bands. By the way... he teamed up with BatMan in 1991 and I'm sure Anthrax experienced an increase in web traffic this past year or so.

So, am I hero-less? Nah. It's all about the music.

peace-
