In *My* World, Superheroes...

Because Eric Burns is taking a break from writing stuff, too, to... write other stuff, here we go:

In my world, superheroes stand up one more time than the villains knock them down.
In my world, superheroes have an origin story.
In my world, superheroes can have an origin story that simply goes, "Enough was enough."
In my world, superheroes do not have to have powers, but they do have to have integrity and courage.
In my world, superheroes are drawn from all of humanity.
In my world, superheroes do this because they must.
In my world, superheroes do not care how hokey they seem to the cynical.
In my world, superheroes can have bad days.
In my world, superheroes believe in the ideals that they espouse, even if they cannot live up to them.
In my world, superheroes do not whine.
In my world, superheroes will put aside the petty for the sake of the important.
In my world, superheroes may not always be on the side of the law, but they will always be on the side of good.
In my world, superheroes do not lightly choose to be not on the side of the law.
In my world, superheroes do not use the mask as an excuse for license.
In my world, superheroes aspire.
In my world, superheroes can lurk in the hearts of even the worst villains, waiting for a moment of weakness.
In my world, superheroes Hold. The. Line.

PS: Also, in my world, superheroes do not wear capes.

That's... oh. You mean "than," right?

Why, yes. :)

In my world, superheroes Hold. The. Line.

Yes. YES. YES!

We stand until the last man falls.

Apologies for the thread necromancy, but I'm going through my backlog of blogs.
