The disguised hero skirts around a building keeping their eye on the villain wreaking havoc among the city, waiting for their next move. They pull out their superpower from within and capture photos of the criminal in order to seize the truth on film.
They frantically write down what they see and hear until they have the chance to inevitably and metaphorically pull the mask off the villain, putting them behind bars and revealing the truth to the people. The disguised protagonist once again wins the battle for democracy and freedom and helps give a voice to the voiceless.
Who did you think of when reading this? Did you think of Superman, The Flash, Spiderman, Batman, Captain America or another one of your favorite superheroes? Plot twist: it was about none of them but rather investigative journalist, Lois Lane.
