Who Wants to be a Superhero Winner!

Who doesn’t love this show, huh? It’s got everything a show should have- Stan Lee, grown men and women in tights, calling each other codenames, challenges, drama, intruige, Stan Lee, villians, and Stan "The Man" Lee.

For the uninitiated, Who Wants to be a Superhero is a reality show hosted by Stan "Father of Modern Mythology" Lee.  Contestants take on superhero identities (this, every comic book fan has done so in the comfort of their own homes)  and must act superheroic to impress Stan Lee. Every episode, they get rid of one superhero. The ones deemed unworthy are usually those who are rude, reveal too much information about their identity, hurt other people’s feelings, don’t show initiative- generally, unsuperhero-y stuff.

The winner gets to be immortalized as a comicbook character in his/her own graphic novel. This is the wet dream

Now, I don’t know how this airs for everyone else on the planet, but I just saw the finale of this last night. And the results, I agree with them wholeheartedly, though I wouldn’t mind if another contestant had won.
