To Be A Hero..

You know something, being a super hero used to be a lot of fun, now it seems like my family and the gang are the only ones still in business. Yeah, I know, Batman and whonaut is still alive and kicking, but it's different somehow.

When I was little, being a superhero was about using your unique gifts and abilities to keep your fellow human beings safe, to accomplish the rescues normal people couldn't, and to stop the crime that would usually get away-- We wore the dopey gettups to protect our identities from super villains, and as an ode to those wrestler guys most folks used to look up to. Our cause was all in all a good one, a noble and frankly quite obvious one... But now, it doesn't seem like it's about that anymore.

Now days, it seems different... I dunno.
Nobody is sweating the small and really important stuff anymore. They're all about the next intergalactic threat or war, always fussing the political nonsense, and if they get really bored; the good guys will battle each other. It's no longer about the good you can do, it's about the glory you can get. The next world wide problem you can tackle that will bring in the most attention. That really makes me sad.

So yeah, I'm kinda upset... No funny stuff today. =(
