Message: <blockquote data-quote="Celebrim" data-source="post: 9827804" data-attributes="member: 4937">One of the hardest things about being a superhero is one of the things they almost never worry about - being at the right place at the right time to actually do good with a power set that is heavily focused on "beats people up good".  The truth is if you were just doing the Batman thing and hanging around for a crime to happen, you could hang around your whole life and never be in position to stop a mugging.  Even with the Superman power set, at best you could punish a mugging every once and a while by listening in on the police radio or some such, but if its on the police radio things are probably going to get largely taken care of without you.So I can't actually answer this question because it's outside the rules of the forums to do so.Suffice to say that I think with the Superman power set I could keep my identity a secret for a good long while because I don't think being a Super hero would look anything like the comic books and I think that any government, even once with something like the NSA would have a hard time figuring out my motives, whereabouts, or center of operations if I didn't want them to do so.  And yes, this assumes that I would use my powers for good and that I'd be compelled to do so in public.</blockquote>
