Tumblr Imagines a World in Which a Regular Person Can Identify Superheroes on Sight

Tumblr is a true treasure trove of content. You never really know what you’ll stumble upon.

Sometimes, people are writing about tough topics and sharing how they overcame something challenging.

Other times… people take a decidedly lighter approach and come up with their own stories just because.

In this thread, a whole group of people imagined a world in which a regular person can size up the threat level someone else poses just by looking at them.

From there, people ran away with the idea that the person would also be able to identify superheroes like Wonder Woman and Batman on the street, even when they weren’t in their costumes.

You can see how helpful this skill would be right from the jump:

And of course, this guy Clark has some powerful friends.

Because why not?

Enter: Diana Prince, who immediately breaks the mold.

One would definitely begin to question this awesome “power,” right?

Maybe having it is not quite as cool as the person thought it would be.

Except then, something pretty spectacular happens that makes you believe in it all over again.

Those same “friends” and “coworkers” have joined together to become something called the Justice League.
