    Who Wants to be a Superhero?

    http://www.scifi.com/superhero/

    SCI FI Channel, teamed with Bruce Nash's company, Nash Entertainment (Meet My Folks, For Love or Money, Who Wants to Marry My Dad?), and legendary comic-book creator Stan Lee (Spider-man, Hulk, The Fantastic Four, X-Men), will produce a six-episode, one-hour weekly competition reality series that will challenge a lucky few to create their very own superhero and reward the winner with the best reality competition prize yet: immortality! All you'll need is an original idea, a killer costume and some real superhero mojo. The winner of this six-week competition will walk away with their superhero immortalized in a new comic book created by Stan Lee himself!

    In nationwide open casting calls, potential heroes will arrive in costume to prove their mettle, revealing the true nature of their superhuman abilities and invoking the noble credos by which they live. From these thousands of hopefuls, Stan Lee will choose 11 lucky finalists to move into a secret lair and compete for the opportunity to become a real-life superhero!

    Finalists will leave their former lives behind and live as their brainchild heroes 24/7, all under Stan Lee's watchful eye. Each week, our aspiring heroes will be challenged with competitions designed to test their true superhero abilities. It's not all just leaping tall buildings in a single bound; a true superhero will be tested for courage, integrity, self-sacrifice, compassion and resourcefulness. In the end, only one aspiring superhero will have the strength and nobility to open the gates to comic-book immortality.
    This sounds like it could be a lot of fun. Anyone got any ideas?

    Finally, a reason to leave my basement. I'm so getting a sewing machine.

    Edit:
    This doesn't sound far removed from Halloween to me.

      Interesting, but my character (avatar and sig) wouldn't be "marvel" quality which is what I'm sure there gonna look for. Plus he has no super powers, is a bit perverted, and is just a goofball.

      But my spidey sense is telling me that the creator will somehow get screwed for the rights to the character, or at least not get enough attention to last longer than the sci fi movie.

        This sounds cool. Doubt I'd be able to come up with anything (Edit) good, though.

          I have a few good characters in mind, but they would only fit with manga. Bummer...

            My more serious characters aren't exactly suoperheroes, as they have no powers.

            However, for some of my more vulgar game ideas, I think The Squidmaster or The Ass Man, maybe even The Turd Burglar could get somewhere...
