You know of Banksy's work. Banksy has abilities you do not - even if you think nothing of his talents or his opinions, he clearly has a lot of resources. Banksy has a specific distinctive identity, though you've never seen his face or heard his real name. Banksy, arguably, makes the world a better place. Is Banksy a superhero?

0833-------------------------------------
(Tuesday afternoon, INT: EB and JH's living room)
JH: I would actually say that a superhero, by definition, can't be anonymous. The difference between heroes and superheroes is the same as between models and supermodels. Models are interchangeable, supermodels are specific celebrities.
EB: You'd be anonymous if there were hundreds of people in identical faceless costumes, all of them doing the same thing....the Mauve Mob.
--------------
MH: Okay, I'm just going to go ahead and get all the colour alliteration out of the way. The Lavender Lay. The Maroon Muffdiver. The Violet Virginity Vanquisher.
JH: So what would Wallace, Simon, Carol and Trent think of your escapades?
--------------
MH: Oh, let me be clear, this is all just fantasy I'm talking about, here. My definition of sexual faithfulness may be different from the norm, but I have never and I will never knowingly cheat in the explicitly established parameters of a relationship. That is conduct unbecoming a superhero, I'm sure you would agree.
--------------
MH: Besides, the Bluish-Red Blumpkineer was all Ellen's idea. I was all set to rescue adorable baby kittens, she's the one who said that I should be going out and having anonymous sex with people.
EB: THAT IS THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF WHAT I SAID.
