Missing People
When someone disappears, communities often rally together to help search for the missing person. Volunteer search parties can play a crucial role in covering large areas quickly and providing support to families during an incredibly difficult time. If you are interested in helping, it is important to understand how to join a search effort safely and effectively. This is a great way to become involved as an RLSH where the focus is definitely NOT on you. It's about the work

What If...RLSH Had An Annual Positive Campaign?
This is just a "What If...?" idea. I got to thinking about superhero campaign ads. The most prominent, that I could think of, are the "Got Milk?" ads. The aim is to increase milk consumption to, in theory, increase calcium for healthier bodies. Just as a side note, there are better ways to increase your calcium intake and not everyone is able to drink milk. If RLSH were to have an annual positive campaign, what would it be? Would it be worth our time to do such a thing? S

RLSH Around The World
Through the topic submission form, I received the question “ Why is there a lack of Heroes in Australia or other countries?” Let’s start by looking at 2 factors: the Global Peace Index Map and Countries The Have Had RLSH. There are 163 countries (out of the 195 total) looked at for the Global Peace Index Map. When someone asks about Australia, we can see that it’s #18 on the list, and it’s neighbor New Zealand is #3. The United States of America, just for comparison, is at

The ICE Issue
This is how a federal agent IDs themself. As we have seen over 2025, ICE has been taking illegal action across the United States of America. They don’t produce warrants, they don’t produce badges or identification, they act without due process, they refuse to acknowledge legal documents stating citizenship, they have acted against US citizens, their concentration camps are kept in poor conditions and often refuse official oversight, they act against anyone of color or with a

New Year’s Resolutions
The top 3 resolutions made tend to be Health/Fitness, Financial Gain, and Personal Growth. Since we’re still in January and it’s possible that you haven’t made a resolution or haven’t started yet, I thought I would cover these resolutions from an RLSH perspective. Health & Fitness Health & Fitness is the most common New Year’s Resolution out there. We want to look better, feel better, and operate better. The trouble is usually follow through. A lot of RLSH wouldn’t mind l

'Mystery Men' (1999)
Today I have a video where I discuss 'Mystery Men' through the perspective of RLSH. I could have written something, but a visual medium demands visual references. I'd like to hear your thoughts and opinions on 'Mystery Men'. Leave them below in the comments. I might do another video like this, but with 'The Tick'. I'll take suggestions. On an entire other note, if you are an RLSH, please take a moment to fill out this RLSH 2026 Demographics Survey . It's anonymous. Just

Our Adversaries
September 2025, Greenville Spiderman Emergency Situations It may be strange to consider emergency situations as an adversary, but it is something that all RLSH keep an eye out for. You never know when something is going to happen that requires someone to step in with first aid or CPR or something along those lines. It might be a tourist having a heart attack or a homeless person having a seizure or a kid having an allergic reaction or someone in need of a river rescue - wha

Patrol Logs
Patrol Logs were a common thing with early RLSH in the early 00s and 10s. Usually this was done on a blog. This kept RLSH encouraged to go out repeatedly so they could write up more content. It also allowed anyone a little insight on what RLSH were doing and provided a "history of action". Some might claim that they were inspired by Rorschach from ‘Watchmen’ or by The Tick’s monologuing, but it does trail back to Dr. John Watson who, in the stories, was responsible for tel
