In its second season, Who Wants to Be a Superhero? will be expanded from six to 10 one-hour episodes.  Similar to it's first season, the second installment will feature legendary comic-book creator Stan Lee as he tries to find this generation's next superhero among a group of contestants who create an alter ego, all the while living together and competing in challenges.  Who Wants to Be a Superhero? will conclude with the winner's character being immortalized in its own comic book.

Casting calls to find various caped-crusaders and masked-martyrs for Who Wants to be a Superhero? 2 recently concluded and asked interested applicants to dress in costume, reveal the true nature of their powers and invoke the noble code by which they live.
