This is very likely the wrong forum, but I thought this was fun and I'm always looking for a chance to get other people's opinions, soooo.....


Jack had powers.

He didn’t know where they came from, but he decided make himself a costume and battle Evil.

Not something of spandex, or leather, but a man’s costume. He found a nice, dark, pair of Dockers (relaxed fit), a red, long-sleeved t-shirt, and a full-faced ski mask that seemed to look impressive in the mirror.

Jack would go out every night looking to right wrongs, but since he never saw anyone getting mugged from his car nothing ever came of it. So after several weeks he would go out less and less, and finally he put the costume in the back of his closet and didn’t go out on patrol any more.

One day, on his way to work, Jack came upon an accident. Two men were standing beside their wrecked vehicles arguing and waiving their arms at one another. One man was tall and stocky, the other was somewhat bookish.

He also had a gun.

Jack, finally seeing his chance to use his powers for good, jumped from his car.

The small man turned to Jack…

And shot him.

So... the point? Is Jack dead? Was Jack schizophrenic? Did Jack save the tall, stocky man with his powers? Kind of hard to give an opinion without an actual story to comment on. The writing itself is okay, if a bit boring... is that what you want?
