inside the real life superhero movement
"HEROES IN THE NIGHT traces journalist Tea Krulos's journey into the strange subculture of Real Life Superheroes, random citizens who have adopted comic book-style personas and hit the streets to fight injustice--helping the homeless, gathering donations for food banks, or patrolling their neighborhoods looking for crime to fight. Through historic research, extensive interviews, and many long hours walking on patrol in Brooklyn and Seattle, San Diego, Minneapolis, and Vancouver, British Columbia, Krulos discovered what being a RLSH is all about. HEROES IN THE NIGHT profiles dozens of RLSHs and shares not only their shining, triumphant moments but some of their ill-advised, terrifying disasters as well"--.
