You don't need a costume to be a superhero. But apparently it does help.
Here's the case of a real life Batman in Australia: Zac Mihajlovic one day decided to build his very own Batmobile. With the help of his grandfather he replicated the 1989 Batman movie vehicle as used by Michael Keaton. He got offered good money for his creation but turned down the money. Just to make the dreams of others come true via the Make-a-Wish foundation:
Mamoudou Gassama is another superhero. Being an illegal immigrant from Mali he had no concerns about his possible deportation or even his own safety. When he saw a child in need he reacted. And how!
He got awarded instant citizenship by non other than French President Macron himself! The incident raises the question: 'Are only useful people allowed to be citizens?' How would you respond to this question after wondering how useful you yourself are for society?
