Casting calls to find various caped-crusaders and masked-martyrs for Who Wants to be a Superhero? 2 recently concluded and asked interested applicants to dress in costume, reveal the true nature of their powers and invoke the noble code by which they live.
Sci Fi Channel renewed Who Wants to be a Superhero? for a second season last October, as its first season averaged 1.5 million total viewers last summer.
Matthew Atherton was crowned the winner of Who Wants to be a Superhero?'s first season. "Feedback," Atherton's alter-ego, is a software engineer who got caught in an explosion that riddled his body with hi-tech cellular shrapnel and led him to discover his body now generates a feedback field that shuts down nearby electronic equipment and can absord the powers of video game characters.
