Part Badge. Part Tights. All Hero

Metropolis and Gotham City have always had watchful guardians. Comic book civilizations are full of them—extraordinary people who choose to share their authentic gifts to help people.

Comic book superheroes, as contemporary symbols of heroism, have long been known in our law enforcement community to be a source of inspiration and moral guidance for a life served to protect. For the first time, a literary source has tapped into this archetype by examining "existence over essence."
