Who Wants to Be a Superhero? will be back for a second season on the Sci Fi Channel, according to press reports. The so-called reality series, hosted by Marvel Comics legend Stan Lee, features contestants who create superhero alter egos. The would-be protectors of the common man compete in a series of challenges that test their aptitudes and personal attributes.
"Who Wants to Be a Superhero? was a success for us on many levels last summer," Mark Stern, SCI FI's executive vice president, original programming, said in a press release. "The show garnered great reviews, attracted a record-breaking number of younger viewers to the channel and held its own against some very stiff competition on Thursday nights."
As with Season 1, the winning character will appear in comic book form.
The series will expand from six episodes to ten for Season 2. Comic book artist Matt Haley will be among the returning behind-the-camera personnel, serving as creative consultant and illustrator.
