Are Superheroes The New Gods? - By N.L. Belardes

Are people going overboard with comic book superhero worship? Read my article, "Book Claims Superheroes New Gods" about the new book, "Our Gods Wear Spandex."
Now, the article is different than the video I shot and edited which you can see here on YouTube. The article is commentary and an interview with author Chris Knowles. The video is an interview with three local comic book afficionados. I think you will be amazed at what they have to say.

Haha...Love the video! Never knew people actually formed religions off of comic characters and star wars. I agree more with the guy who said that worshiping a comic character is absurd. Admiring is one thing, but worshiping is another.
There’s this band in L.A. called the Electric Hellfire Club that worships the Partridge Family. They’re totally into it.
Ridiculous.
