MTV BEGINS CASTING ON SUPER-HERO REALITY SHOW

Ready to take your fandom to the next level? MTV has opened applications for a new reality show, the premise of which will involve a group of fans who have designed their own super hero characters. Here’s the rub though – the finalists will live together in a house as their hero, and compete against celebrity villains for the grand prize – having their character published in a comic book. According to the production company, a “Legendary Comic Book Creator”

As the production company is being mum about further details, it’s unclear if this show is the previously announced teaming of Stan Lee (who would fit the “Legendary Creator” slot) and Bruce Nash. News of that show broke in the trades in March of 2003.

Each week on the show, contestants will be pitted against villains in tests of their “super powers.”

The show will be casting in Los Angeles, and will shoot in February. Fans of all shapes, sizes, ethnicities and personalities are sought.

More information, and an application, can be found at: http://www.whowantstobeasuperhero.tv/

This can only end badly. :lol

I would be Dick InHotChick on the show...

I would be trying to bang all of the hot chicks... Look up the loft, is it a porno... no it's Dick InHotChick...

During the day, I would be a mild-mannered married guy with a kid... but at night with a little liquor... I become the champion of all horny men... I Am Dick InHotChick

By far MTV's dumbest idea in a very long time. I have to admit, it does sorta sound interesting, but you know it's going to be a trainwreck, and the kind that gets boring after ten minutes.

Don't say that, they'll take it as a challenge.

Last night I watched MTV for the first time in a long time, and it was some show called DATE MY MOM.

I really don't see how this could turn out to be anything other then another boring mtv show. I envision realworld with stupid custumes.
