Early in the trailer we see a young Clark Kent playing in the tall grass on a perfect summer evening with his red hero cape on. It seems that even heroes dream of being heroes.

And it made me think of myself in the 1980's: watching the original Richard Donner 'Superman,' running around in the red cape my mother made me, and dreaming of being a hero.

Back in the 90's, we saw an explosion of talented artists throughout the industry and heroes, old and new, were re-imagined for this second golden age of comics. While the heroes became grittier and darker, the women became bombshells fighting crime, monsters, aliens, and villains in less and less.

I think we all started to wonder, "how does she fight crime in that?" Well, one artist named Michael Lee Lunsford decided to take a more practical approach to the female superhero costume, and actually put clothes on them.

With all the grace and subtlety of the Hulk smashing Loki's army, 'The Avengers' has broken box office records by taking in an incredible $200.8 million.
