> When my mom has let me answer her students' questions about superheroes (they know me as "Mrs. Boxleitner's son, who scammed a ton of free comics for his ship after 9/11, and who always donates his used comics to our class"), two things I've been asked, with increasing frequency, are a) how superheroes can manage to keep their identities secret, in this age of all-pervasive seeing-eye media, and b) why they would even choose to do so.



We used to ask the same questions when we were kids, and that was well before the all pervasive internet. Does "How can people not realize Clark Kent and Superman are the same person?" sound familiar? Only if you've been following comics for the past fifty years!
