Guest chax Posted April 29, 2009 Report Share Posted April 29, 2009 http://www.wlwt.com/cnn-news/19305002/detail.html Quote He calls himself Shadowhare, and he wears a mask and a cape to conceal his true identity. He's Cincinnati's own version of a superhero fighting crime and injustice where he finds it. "We help enforce the law by doing what we can in legal standards, so we carry handcuffs, pepper spray … all the legal weapons," said Shadowhare. "We will do citizen's arrests. We will intervene on crimes if there is one happening in front of us."The man behind Shadowhare's mask is 21 years old and from Milford. Those are the only clues to his true identity that he will reveal. Shadowhare said he was abused as a child and grew up in foster homes, perhaps leading him to a life helping others. "My message to Cincinnati is that there is still hope and all we have to do is stand together," he said.Shadowhare is not alone in his quest to fight crime. He heads up a group of men -- and one woman -- called the "Allegiance of Heroes." The members communicate with each other in online forums. Among the members are Aclyptico in Pennsylvania, Wall Creeper in Colorado and Master Legend in Florida."I've even teamed up with Mr. Extreme in California -- San Diego -- and we were trying to track down a rapist," said Shadowhare.The crime fighters will often pair up to patrol the streets. Even so, fighting crime comes with its share of hardship.Shadowhare said he suffered a dislocated shoulder two years ago while trying to help a woman who was being attacked.And the authorities don't always take him seriously. In one encounter with a Hamilton County corrections officer, Shadowhare was greeted with a chuckle and a look of disbelief.But Shadowhare said he and his team are not deterred by the criticism. He remains focused on trying to make Cincinnati a better place, whether it's fighting crime or feeding the homeless.For now, the law is on Shadowhare's side.It is legal in Ohio and Kentucky to make a citizens arrest, however, the arrester does face possible civil litigation if the person arrested turns out to be innocent. also meet Mr. Extreme from San Diego! are these people out of their minds??? i think they saw a few too many movies/comics and lost their grip on reality. somebody is probably going to get the shit beaten out of them or killed. these people need therapy seriously wtf Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/45170-real-life-superheros/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest A/D Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 i hung out with a couple of these dudes (that one guy's name is eclyptico). i was expecting to feel the same way but i think their hearts are in the right place and they are actually pretty awesome. i can't speak for the whole of them, but they are really trying to help people, and take it seriously, and (as far as i know) don't carry lethal weapons. also they were really nerdy and adorable. <3.

How obsessively did they collect comic books? they wouldn't say, although one of them said he bounty hunted on the side, and that it was much less exciting than people think it is. one of them has a wife and kid, the other guy was younger. i don't know about the comics, but i have to imagine they were afficionados, if not fanatics.
