![]() ![]() Most of Moore’s characters are thinly veiled versions of Marvel and DC characters, such as Warrior Woman (Wonder Woman), Dark Hero (Batman), American Agent (Captain America) and Justice (Superman). First, it’s no secret that I love comics and superheroes. Thom finds his life taking an unexpected turn when he’s asked to tryout for The League due to his healing powers, which he has to hide from his father. They wear costumes, but everyone knows who’s behind the mask except in the case of a vigilante hero known as Dark Hero. I should note that superhero identities are not secret in this book. ![]() Thom lives a simple life with his dad since his mother abandoned them years before. His father works hard to provide a decent life for them, though it’s been hard due to trouble in his past as a former hero of a group called The League, which causes both scorn and admiration in the people who know him. ![]() First, he’s gay, and he knows well enough how his father feels about gay people, and secondly, he has superpowers and his father hates powers (his father is powerless)–well, superheroes, actually. Thom Creed is hiding secrets from his father.
