Although they had only actually managed to scare away a small trouble of toughs, and now found themselves at something of a crossroads in their career, Falcon Boy and Bewilder Bird certainly weren’t the worst superheroes in the world.
Indeed, the removal of the superpower option on SuperHeroVerse™ caused many more virtual superheroes to acquire their own reality and the market rapidly flooded with people seeking to recreate their online profile in the real world.
This migration from the virtual to the real quickly became big business as a whole range of subsidiary activities sprang up to support this sudden deluge of superheroes falling from a hole in the cloud.
As you can imagine, this new production of superheroes rapidly became an industry like any other and soon generated its own ancillary activities, the most notable of which was the annual World’s Worst Superhero Award as voted for by the readers, writers, listeners, downloaders, sharers, hackers, phishers, rippers and secret surveillancers of www.worldsworstsuperheroes.com.
