The Hero Arrives on the App Store, Saving You From Boredom
by Jamin Smith on Tuesday 9th Mar 2010

Is it a bird, is it a plane -- no, it's the most overused written cliché in super hero history!

Rescuing your iDevice from the torment of boredom comes Chillingo's eagerly anticipated The Hero, a 2D flight sim of sorts putting you in the shoes, mask and cape of a reluctant super hero. As you fly about the city, there will be numerous crimes or accidents that will require your attention, from falling babies to rampaging tanks.

-  Three Super Powers: Freeze, Boom and Zapp! for dispatching nameless minions in style.

Hello. This is kind of an "unconventional" question , but have other visitors asked you how get the menu bar to look like you've got it? I also have a blog and am really looking to alter around the theme, however am scared to death to mess with it for fear of the search engines punishing me. I am very new to all of this ...so i am just not positive exactly how to try to to it all yet. I'll just keep working on it one day at a time
