You know what's really cool? Comics. Superheroes. I love 'em. The action, the adventure, the bad-guy pounded into the ground. All-over they're a feel good read. If you're like me you probably spent your childhood with a towel safety-pinned around your neck and a bandana mask (I learned early on you gotta cut eyes holes in that thing), and defended your home from the force of evil. Or at least procrastinated homework by fighting bad guys.

Now that I've grown up, I love looking back at those heroes and figuring out what drove them to do what they do. Their psychology, their powers, their childhood, their obsession with virtue and justice.

Then I came upon an opportunity. About two years ago I started to develop a concept for a TV show. What if I crossed reality TV with a team of superheroes? From that thought "Super Reality" was born. A live-action mockureality show following a team called "The O.P.A.L. Force", a Men In Black-style government agency that for the first time has allowed our cameras into their world.

I am very excited to officially announce this project and would love my fellow comic-lovers to be a part of the project with me. We have a very exciting time to be able to get shows like this on TV and watch a program with more intellect and heart than the combined efforts the current reality programs (and WAY less self-tanner).

I can't wait to share all the exciting details and footage we have been working on and launch the Kickstarter to support the project. We have even incorporated special contests and giveaways on both our website and for the readers of Bleeding Cool. Be part of Super Reality and let's make this the best project possible and show people what we've always seen. Can't wait to have you on the team!
