Line #2 Awesome/WhoWantsToBeASuperhero


1	!!The Game Show:
2	* Let's face it, the fact that Feedback won the first season. This is a man whose father committed suicide and who looks up to Stan Lee as a father figure, and who even (in part, at least) got his life together despite his father's suicide thanks to Spider-Man. He also took the competition the most seriously, had consistently strong performances, and was sometimes one of only a few contestants who won a challenge (he was one of only four people who managed to reach the door past the attack dogs, and one of only ''two'' people who managed not to give away his secret identity in the cafe), and on the rare occasions where he messed up his superhero behavior (like ridiculing Ty'Veculus's costume for example), he took it the hardest. If ''anyone'' deserved to win the whole competition, it was him.
3	** Probably his greatest moment was the convict challenge. His Secret Task (hugging the convict three times) was probably the hardest one (and the other contestants seemed to think so since it was the last one to be picked) and whereas Major Victory and Fat Momma tried to sneak their Secret Task in, Feedback chose not to hug the convict until they had a genuine mutual understanding of one another. And he did it! It was so amazing that the composer for the show decided it needed a slow, dramatic reprise of his leitmotif, something that has never been done for any other contestant either in that season or the next. In fact that slow reprise became a mainstay riff in the second season. ''That is how much he won this challenge''.
4	** There was another, subtle, almost secret Crowning Moment of Awesome in that season. Most people didn't even see it was happening, but it was pretty clear that by the time there were four or five contestants left, Fat Momma was maneuvering to ensure that Feedback won, and she may even have been complicit in her own elimination at the end.
5	* Not that the other contestants didn't have awesome moments. Monkey Woman having enough determination to fight attack dogs for ''9 minutes and 42 seconds'' to reach the door for a challenge, for example. If you look closely in the interview after you can even see how red her skin was from the dogs biting her meaning she was probably in pain the whole time as well despite wearing full body armor.
6	--> '''Monkey Woman''': ''I disappointed Stan in the last challenge, but he gave me another chance, and this is it. Those dogs are going to have to ''kill'' me before I stop''.
7	* Monkey Woman's crowning moment from her tragically short run. After nearly being eliminated in the first episode, she (and the rest of the contestants) faced a challenge of making it across a lawn in a heavy padded suit, with two trained dogs trying to stop them. Every other would-be superhero either succeeded or admitted defeat and cried "uncle" to make the dogs stop in under a minute. When Monkey Woman's turn came, she spent nearly ''ten minutes'' fighting her way forward or being dragged around by the dogs and made it through. Even [[Creator/StanLee Stan]] was stunned.
8	** Although as far as "eternal loyalty from the fans" is concerned, there are reports of this coming as early as the first major challenge, in which she "changed" into her superhero costume... in a tree.
9	** In the same attack dog challenge, Ty'Veculus managed to get the fastest time, 16 seconds, with Major Victory not far behind at 17 seconds.
10	* The fact that Iron Enforcer put forth enough of a strong showing that after being eliminated, he was chosen to ''be the supervillain''. Hey, if you can't win every boy's dream of being a superhero, you can have just as much fun being the hammy bad guy!
11	** The Dark Enforcer's costume in of itself is awesome in how legitimately menacing it looks, particularly on someone with the physique of Steel Chambers. Despite being a fairly AffablyEvil AntiVillain to suit the show's tone, you can easily imagine him playing it more seriously in another production.
12	** Not to mention the fact that he embraced the "Dark Enforcer" persona to the hilt, and is clearly having the time of his life. It's hard to say whether that was Stan's plan for his character from the beginning or if the idea came up closer to his elimination, but either way, Dark Enforcer's existence is an Awesome moment for both Stan and the actor.
13	* The "crossing the building to save a damsel in distress" challenge was a rare moment of awesome for ''all'' the contestants, because it was the only challenge in the whole first season that ''nobody'' failed! In fact, Stan Lee had to make up the "self-nomination" challenge on the spot so he could still come up with a reason to eliminate someone.
14	** In fact, the damsel in distress challenge could also be interpreted as a Crowning Moment of Awesome for Lemuria in particular, since she has a phobia of heights and ''still'' managed to pass the challenge.
15	* Lemuria got a Crowning Moment of Awesome that Stan Lee didn't actually intend in the aforementioned "self-nomination challenge"... by figuring out in advance that nominating herself was the correct response, and choosing herself not out of being noble but because she figured out in advance that recommending herself for elimination was precisely what would ensure she ''wouldn't'' be eliminated.
16	* Season 2's FinalBattle with Dr. Dark. Yes, it was staged, but let's face it, they got to live out just about anyone's childhood fantasy and fight as a superhero ''they created'', complete with their superpowers (which was CGI and they didn't get to see until after editing, but still)!
17	* Also in Season 2, the Defuser prevailing in the attack dog challenge through sheer HeroicWillpower to save his teammates. He very well may have won the whole competition solely based on that.
