It seems that life is emulating fiction with real life superheroes coming out of the woodwork, patrolling our streets and keep citizens safe from encroaching evil! Yea, or perhaps it a few people, a little unbalance, for better or worse, enjoying themselves while living out a fantasy.  Whatever it is, I’ve read about this recently in magazines and online articles. Introductory paragraph from the oddee.com article…

And you thought superheroes existed only in fiction? Inspired by fiction superheroes such as Batman and Superman, these people wear masks and capes in order to fight real crime on the strets. Here’s a list with 10 of the most famous real-life superheroes.

As whim strikes me, I’ll be statting up these superheroes starting with Citizen Prime, a hero I’ve read about previously.

citizen_primeCitizen Prime, a 40-year-old married man whose first name is Jim, has been protecting the streets of Phoenix for a year. He became a superhero to spread the message that people don’t have to be fearful of crime. "Are you going to sit inside scared that a terrorist might attack your city, or are you going to go out and live your life?" he asked. But Prime, who patrols once or twice a week in a black, blue and yellow costume, found one chink in his armor. He couldn’t find any crime. "The only crime I’ve ever stopped is when I was actually walking out of a sporting goods store with my wife," he said. "A shoplifter came running past me, and I managed to throw him to the ground."
