According to The Hollywood Reporter, the WB has ordered six episodes of Who Wants to be a Superhero?, described as "a tongue-in-cheek fantasy contest show from reality guru Bruce Nash ("Meet My Folks") and comic pioneer Stan Lee."

The series, which will debut in the 2003-04 season will feature real people with homegrown ideas for original superheroes will face off in character before a panel of celebrity judges who have played onscreen superheroes.

Reporter: "Semifinalists will undergo a 'superhero makeover' -- with a professional artistic gloss overseen by Spider-Man creator Lee -- and compete in various stunts and challenges that mimic comic book derring-do. The winner will then be eligible to have his or her idea developed and expanded by Lee's team, possibly for a comic book spinoff. The producers will conduct and film open auditions around the country in coming weeks."

HOW COOL! THIS is a Reality TV Series I will tune in for over and over again! And you *know* that when the casting agents come to Seattle, I'm gonna be right there on the front line of auditioners, in my home-made costume! WOOT!

I'd best get working on the costume now!
