Not to be stupid, but the main reason that vigilantes in comics keep a secret identity from the public is so that the bad guys can't get back at them or their loved ones easily. If these guys are actually, heaven help us, BEATING UP CRIMINALS, then why does Mr. Ravenblade want them to out themselves?
I can't believe I typed that sentence outside of the context of comics but in real life instead.
Ravenblade is right, RLSH are about protecting the public, not hiding behind identities. If you want to help, have the balls to make a statement to the police and press charges!
Ravenblade... he's a bit more sane. I haven't heard any rumors of him carrying stun batons during breast cancer charity walks (true story, it was a real life superhero named Zetaman), but the RLSH pretty much lost all credibility for me when they defended Master Legend as "eccentric", along with other blatant psychopaths they have on their boards.
Tea Krulos is really the expert on these guys. He's been writing about them and traveling the country to meet them, and not just the new guys like Phoenix Jones.
The problem with the whole "Community" & High ethical standards" thing is that there is no Real Superhero "Community" in the first place. It's a group of people spread out all over the country who just have a common interest. Being a individualist would be a given to be a Superhero in the first place.
I've never met this Phoenix Jones, or even spoken to him, but he has every right to operate however he damn well pleases. It disgusts me to look at page after page of hate that this guy recives W/O anybody even giving him the chance to defend himself...which he really doesn't need to do anyway!
Watch for my first confounding clue, that will lead you into the deathtrap that will spell your doom!
