I believe the true superheroes are hidden.
Unlike how heroes are usually being portrayed as flawless humans with chiseled jawlines and dressed in dramatic costumes. More so, the true heroes are bare with warped faces and distorted bodies. They are in their rawest form as they fight alongside us, instead of hiding beneath the facade of a mask.
They exist inside of us doing the everyday work, fighting battles over the seemingly mundane: to get us out of bed and into the world, to fend off our anxieties and petty inhibitions. They are okay with being swayed by demons onto the dark side at times, as they are the keepers of the balance between forces. Even if they do not emerge from the darkness into the light - the source of energy won't matter as long as it keeps the host going.
