Super Heroes


Super Hero stories are all about good versus evil. The protagonist, as well as the antagonist have supernatural super human powers. Almost all of these have colorful costumes, fancy names and a way to get of the ground. Their powers are often great advantages in the five senses, or any other part of the body, like x-ray vision or strength. And many have full control of one of man's or nature's forces, like fire, or lazor. Other super heroes posess some sort of artificial weapon. Occationally, heroes have side-kicks or some sort of a vehicle.

Most heroes gains his or her powers from an accident, or disaster, usually taking place in a lab. Then, they get a costume, and start fighting crime. Most villains have had terrible pasts, and possess much intelligence, but are cruel and only want chaos.

Almost all heroes have serious problems in their "normal life," and try to hide their secrets from friends and family. They try to remain normal to them, having a normal job, etc. But in the end, after the defeat of the villain, many of their problems get solved, and they learn a lesson.
