We are in superhero heaven (or hell, depending on the day and my mood) around here. We read, draw, discuss, dress, and act all things superhero on a daily basis. In fact, I'm quite sure that one of our little superheroes really, truly believes he is [insert superhero du jour] and that his mission in life is to kick those bad guys to the curb with legitimate high kicks and "hi-yahs!". Pity to whomever (usually Mom) gets in the way of said kicks, his path as he sprints around the house, or his fun when his uniform is inevitably taken away until he can calm his superhero urges waaaaaay down. Despite repeated attempts on Mom and Dad's part to convince the mini avengers that superheroes are generally calm, gentle, and quiet creatures, chasing imaginary bad guys with as much volume and speed as can be mustered appears to be much more fun. Why can't Marvel come up with a new silent superhero who stealthily and quickly cleans up all his toys and dirty clothes? Oh, and who's superpower is listening? Now that would be my kind of superhero - instead, we have this cast of characters:
 |
| Superman |
 |
| Coy Superman |
 |
| Serious and snuggly Batman |
 |
| CAPTAIN OF THE UNIVERSE!!!! |
 |
| Captain of the Universe's alter ego, Adam Stockwell, running the bad guys out of town (or from gymnastics class) |
