World Superhero Registry

Posted by Alex in Blog & Internet on May 11, 2009 at 1:33 pm


Ever wanted to be a superhero? What’s stopping you? Here’s a list of real life superheroes – people who don costumes and fight crime/do good as listed in the World Superhero Registry (yes, a website dedicated to finding these people).

Take, for instance, the Red Arrow, a 20-year-old guy in Hong Kong who tries to "bring happiness to people and become the salt and light of the world" by handing out toys to poor children.

… or Superbarrio Gómez, a Mexican "real-life superhero" who wears red tights and a Lucha Libre wrestler’s mask to organize rallies and protests and file petitions against forced evictions in Mexico:

    I'd be a little leery of any guy standing on the street corner with his face covered, handing out toys to children, with a big red arrow pointing to his groin.

    Wow... I haven't see a page look like this since I had my first free Geocities account.

    Oh and damn... someone already snatched supervillainregistry.com up. :(
