FAN-ART: Alpha Flight Micro-Heroes...

[Flightpath07]

Here is a little something that has always annoyed me a bit...

Do these heroes and villains choose how to spell their own names, or do newspapers and whatnot just have to guess when mentioning them in stories?

Seriously. Do these people stay up at night, sewing their spandex costumes and trying to think of unique ways to spell their names? And do they have to then TELL everybody how it is spelled?

Villain, robbing a bank: "Yes, this is the villain WypperWill robbing you. That's W-Y-P-P-E-R, W-I-L-L; make sure you spell that correctly. Have you got it? Repeat after me; Wypperwill - W-Y-P..."

Or

"No, no, you've got me confused with that other guy. I am the hero Spyderman, spelled with a Y instead of an I. Got it now?"

Haven't you seen Dr. Horrible's Sing-a-Long Blog?

"That's Horrible. Two 'r's."

"That's Horrible. Two 'r's."

Yes, yes i have.

And then promptly bought it on DVD.

"He rides across the nation
The thoroughbred of sin
He got the application
You just sent in
It needs evaluation
So let the games begin
A heinous crime, a show of force
(A murder would be nice, of course)"
