That was a very well-written article. And reminded me of how, as a 5 or six-year-old, I would be "Woman Woman" (it took me years to figure out that her name was WONDER Woman), while my half-brother was Superman and his half-brother alternated between Spiderman and Batman. In this new digital world in which we now live, it is truly saddening to think that this and future generations might now be forbidden to engage in such guile-less fun as pretending to be heroic and instead are forced to turn to make-believe villainy. IF, that is, that it is original villainy and not "stolen," copywritten villainy.
