- Sheldon Phillips: Nuts. Super-heroes, costumed characters, super-powered crimefighters, and lawbreakers... enough already! You can't avoid 'em. There are so many super-heroes even the media won't buy any more photos, said there's a surplus. I'll say.
- Sheldon Phillips: Getting a new camera wasn't a problem, but trying to snap some decent photos of the park... or the zoo... or the waterfront was a major pain in the butt!
- Captain Squid: [GASP] How did the Frankenstein Monster learn to swim? He may be too powerful for even me to stop now!
- Frankenstein Monster: Plankton good! Squid bad!
- Gloria Grand: Oh, the super-heroes act like they own the friggin' city. Are we supposed to be impressed, with the tight costumes and the over-exaggerated posturing? And don't get me started on the super-heroines and their "powers." Yeah, right! I guess super-heroes in Zenith are a dime a dozen, but none of them can hold a candle to Radioactive Man. Not that I have a crush on him or anything like that. [TSK] C'mon! Can't a girl admire a champion, for Pete's sake? What's the biggie? I mean, how people talk! Radioactive Man has saved my life more times than I can count, okay? That doesn't mean I'm automatically in love with him. Let's get real! Some people are sooo jealous, they accuse me of purposely putting myself in peril, so Radioactive Man can rescue me.
- Sheldon Phillips: Hey, if Ms. Grand says she accidentally leaned back and fell out, who am I to question her? Oh well, looks like she's busy thanking Radioactive Man... and she's on the air in a few minutes anyway. I might as well leave.
- Sheldon Phillips: I saw a society that was growing indifferent to their costumed guardians. Photographs of them doing their super-chores are met with apathy from news outlets. Yet, how does a society view their heroes? The actions of these "heroes" might be considered power fantasies. I wanted to interpret them in a very broad manner, something that would have a visceral, yet comforting perception. As Carl Jung once wrote...
- Sheldon Phillips: All I wanted was a picture. A nice picture. Well, I now have plenty of nice pictures... Apparently, I had to paint them to find my niche. Still, I use the photos of those intrusive super-heroes for reference and paint to my heart's content, so photography wasn't a total waste. It ain't such a bad life. But something Gloria Grand said has piqued my interest... She mentioned my work looked like 'Comic Book' art. That gives me an idea. What if I did an entire book in the comics format, but rendered the super-beings realistically, the way we would see them in the real world...?!
