Your Neighborhood Superhero

Real life superheroes were featured in an article on City Line. This is a good read, and I’m going to have to check out the real superhero web community.

Superheroes in Real Life – By Ward Rubrecht

“BY MOST OBSERVERS’ RECKONING, between 150 and 200 real-life superheroes, or “Reals” as some call themselves, operate in the United States, with another 50 or so donning the cowl internationally. These crusaders range in age from 15 to 50 and patrol cities from Indianapolis to Cambridgeshire, England.”

The City Line article also provides some bonus web-features, such as this Google Map implementation showing various superheroes. This is a great example of using web content to enhance the static article.
