Who Wants to Be a Superhero?

In 2007, Dark Horse Comics released a single-issue comic adaptation of the reality competition show Who Wants to Be a Superhero?, where everyday contestants vied to create the next great original superhero. This one-shot captured the spirit of the series, turning the show's concept—and its creator, Stan Lee—into a comic book adventure. While brief, it stands as a unique artifact of a moment when pop culture celebrated the idea that anyone could dream up a hero.
