\nMedios de Seattle han reportado sobre un grupo de hombres, los Rain City Superhero Movement, que patrulla las calles de la ciudad durante la noche. No son los \u00fanicos en ese pa\u00eds.
\nGASPAR RAM\u00cdREZ\u00a0Phoenix Jones es un hombre negro de edad indefinida que maneja un sucio Kia blanco por las calles de Seattle. No se sabe c\u00f3mo se gana la vida, tiene al menos un hijo, usa m\u00e1scara, traje a prueba de balas, por las noches combate el crimen y quiere hacer de \u00e9ste un mundo mejor.
\nY, claro, Phoenix Jones no es su verdadero nombre. De hecho su t\u00edtulo completo es Phoenix Jones el guardi\u00e1n de Seattle, y es el l\u00edder de los Rain City Superhero Movement, un grupo de enmascarados que desde hace algunos meses vigila esa ciudad y que ha llamado la atenci\u00f3n de los medios estadounidenses.
\nInspirados en la est\u00e9tica y valores de los c\u00f3mics -el bien triunfar\u00e1 sobre el mal-, los luchadores an\u00f3nimos de Seattle son los m\u00e1s recientes de una tradici\u00f3n que silenciosamente se ha instalado en EE.UU.
\nSi Batman tiene a Robin, Phoenix Jones tiene a Buster Doe, su “sidekick”, como se les conoce en la jerga del c\u00f3mic. “Desde que estaba en el colegio que combato a los abusadores. Supongo que en cierta forma nac\u00ed en este ambiente”, dice Buster Doe a “El Mercurio”.
\nLos Rain City… no pueden volar ni correr como el rayo. Pero \u00bfqui\u00e9n necesita superpoderes cuando se posee entrenamiento en combate, artes marciales y primeros auxilios? No tienen cinturones con trucos ni armaduras, pero manejan tasers y armas similares. Phoenix Jones no se despega de su pistola lanza redes, una netgun .
\nPor unos vidrios rotos
\nSi a Batman lo pic\u00f3 el bichito justiciero cuando de ni\u00f1o vio c\u00f3mo asesinaban a sus padres, a Phoenix Jones le pas\u00f3 al rev\u00e9s. Su Kia blanco no pasa por el agua hace un a\u00f1o intencionalmente: quiere guardar las manchas de sangre que hay en \u00e9l como un recordatorio de que en el mundo hay gente mala.
\nHace poco m\u00e1s de un a\u00f1o volv\u00eda de un parque de diversiones con su hijo cuando a lo lejos vio que le hab\u00edan destrozado el parabrisas de su auto. Corrieron, el ni\u00f1o resbal\u00f3, cay\u00f3 sobre los vidrios y se hizo un profundo corte en la rodilla que dej\u00f3 sangre en todo el veh\u00edculo. Ninguno de los curiosos quiso ayudarlos, se\u00f1al\u00f3 The Daily Beast en una nota sobre el h\u00e9roe. Decidi\u00f3 que alguien deb\u00eda hacer algo contra los maleantes.
\nLos enmascarados saben que salvar al mundo como Superman o los X-Men no es lo suyo. Por eso patrullan de noche, denuncian asaltos, robos, a veces tratan de detener a los maleantes, o simplemente alimentan vagabundos.
\nH\u00e9roes cercanos a la comunidad, no dudan en fotografiarse con admiradores e incluso polic\u00edas.
\nTienen claro que no hace falta kryptonita o un organismo simbi\u00f3tico alien\u00edgeno para derrotarlos. “S\u00ed, es muy peligroso. Hay que tomar ciertas precauciones; de otro modo podr\u00edas terminar en el hospital o en un ata\u00fad”, dice el se\u00f1or Doe.
\nLa polic\u00eda por ahora se ha tomado con humor la presencia de enmascarados, pero saben que pueden pasar por situaciones peligrosas y poner en riesgo sus vidas.
\nLos Rain City… incluyen adem\u00e1s de Phoenix y Buster Doe, a Green Reaper, No Name, Gemini, Thorn, Penelope, Thunder 88 y Catastrophe. Y como se dijo, no son los \u00fanicos ni los primeros.
\nReal Life Superheroes (RLSH) es el equivalente a La Liga de la Justicia. Tiene entre 50 y 150 h\u00e9roes reales activos en las principales ciudades de EE.UU. y en pa\u00edses como Gran Breta\u00f1a, M\u00e9xico e Italia.
\n“RLSH es un movimiento de gente que crea personajes, usan disfraces y salen a hacer la diferencia positiva en sus comunidades”, dice a este diario el h\u00e9roe an\u00f3nimo que administra el sitio reallifesuperheroes.org, una suerte de oficial de comunicaciones de la agrupaci\u00f3n.
\nNo pod\u00eda obviarse la pregunta \u00bfpor qu\u00e9 usar m\u00e1scaras para hacer buenas acciones? “Para llamar la atenci\u00f3n, si no us\u00e1ramos capas y disfraces no tendr\u00edamos la repercusi\u00f3n que tenemos”.
\nUna frase com\u00fan entre enmascarados es: “hacer del mundo un lugar mejor”. Lo dicen en RLSH: “con sus acciones pueden hacer la diferencia. Todos podemos hacer una diferencia”. Lo ratifica Buster Doe: “Soy simplemente un hombre con una m\u00e1scara que sue\u00f1a con un ma\u00f1ana mejor y persigue su fantas\u00eda de futuro”.
\nEsta Navidad, los ni\u00f1os de Seattle y de EE.UU. podr\u00e1n jugar tranquilos porque afuera, donde el mal acecha, Phoenix Jones, Buster Doe y el resto de enmascarados patrullar\u00e1n las calles con una sola meta: hacer de \u00e9ste un mundo mejor.
\n300 superh\u00e9roes de carne y hueso se estima que existen en Estados Unidos, seg\u00fan el documental “Superheroes”.
\nJusticieros con capaA mediados de enero pr\u00f3ximo se estrena en EE.UU. el documental “Superheroes”, “un viaje al interior del mundo de los cruzados con capa de la vida real”, seg\u00fan dice la publicidad.
\nLa producci\u00f3n sigue el d\u00eda a d\u00eda de h\u00e9roes como Mr. Xtreme, un guardia de seguridad de d\u00eda y vigilante de noche que patrulla las calles de San Diego; o el New York Initiative, un cuarteto que custodia los vecindarios de Brooklyn. El documental se estrena en el Slamdance Film Festival.
\nLos justicieros de capa y m\u00e1scara sin superpoderes han sido material de ficci\u00f3n los \u00faltimos a\u00f1os. Pel\u00edculas como “Kick-ass” (2010), “Defendor” (2009), y la chilena “Mirageman” (2007), con Marko Zaror, tocan el tema.
\nEnglish Translation<\/strong>
\nAs in the comics but no special powers:
\nU.S. sleep in peace while the crime-fighting masked superheroes
\nSeattle media have reported on a group of men, the Rain City Superhero Movement, which patrols the city streets at night. They are not alone in that country.
\nRAMIREZ GASPAR Phoenix Jones is a black man of indeterminate age who drives a white Kia dirty the streets of Seattle. No one knows how to make a living, has at least one child, use mask, bullet proof suit, at night fighting crime and wants to make this a better world.
\nAnd, of course, Phoenix Jones is not his real name. In fact the full title is the guardian of Phoenix Jones Seattle, and is the leader of the Rain City Superhero Movement, a group of masked monitored for several months that city and has attracted the attention of U.S. media.
\nInspired by the aesthetics and values of comic books, good will triumph over evil, “Seattle anonymous fighters are the latest in a tradition that has been quietly installed in the U.S.
\nIf Batman has Robin, Phoenix Buster Jones has Doe, his “sidekick”, as they are known in the jargon of the comic. “Since I was at school to fight the abusers. I suppose in some ways I was born in this environment,” says Buster Doe “El Mercurio”.
\nThe Rain City … can not fly or run like lightning. But who needs superpowers when it has combat training, martial arts and first aid? They have no tricks or armor belts, but they manage Tasers and similar weapons. Phoenix Jones comes off his spear gun networks, one netgun.
\nFor some broken glass
\nIf Batman was bitten by the bug vigilante when a child saw his parents killed, Phoenix Jones went backwards. His white Kia does not pass through the water intentionally a year ago: want to keep the blood stains in it as a reminder that the world has bad people.
\nA little over a year back from an amusement park with his son when he saw how far he had shattered the windshield of your car. They ran the child slipped and fell on the glass and took a deep cut on his knee that left blood all over the vehicle. None of the curious wanted to help, The Daily Beast said in a note on the hero. Decided that someone should do something against criminals.
\nThe masked men know they save the world as Superman or the X-Men is not your thing. On this patrol at night, reported assaults, robberies, sometimes try to stop the bad guys, or just feed homeless.
\nHeroes near the community, do not hesitate to take pictures with fans and even cops.
\nThey clearly do not need kryptonite or alien symbiotic organism to defeat them. “Yes, very dangerous. We must take certain precautions, otherwise you could end up in hospital or in a coffin,” said Mr Doe.
\nThe police has now been taken with the presence of masked humor, but know they can go through dangerous situations and risk their lives.
\nThe Rain City … also include Phoenix and Buster Doe, Green Reaper, No Name, Gemini, Thorn, Penelope, Thunder 88 and Catastrophe. And as stated, are not the only nor the first.
\nReal Life Superheroes (RLSH) is the equivalent of the Justice League. Has between 50 and 150 active real heroes in major U.S. cities and in countries like Great Britain, Mexico and Italy.
\n“RLSH is a movement of people who create characters, wear costumes and go out to make a positive difference in their communities,” he told this newspaper the unsung hero reallifesuperheroes.org running the site, a sort of official communications of the group.
\nI could not obviate the question why use masks to do good deeds? “To attract attention, if we do not use layers and costumes would not have the impact we have.”
\nA common phrase is masked, “make the world a better place.” RLSH they say in “with their actions can make a difference. Everyone can make a difference.” Buster ratifying Doe: “I’m just a man in a mask who dreams of a better tomorrow and pursues his fantasy future.”
\nThis Christmas, the children of Seattle and U.S. can play relaxed because outside, where evil lurks, Phoenix Jones, Buster Doe and the rest of masked men patrolled the streets with one goal: to make this a better world.
\n300 superheroes of meat and bone is estimated to exist in the United States, according to the documentary “Superheroes.”
\nCaped vigilante mid January next year is released in U.S. the documentary “Superheroes,” “a journey into the world of the caped crusader in real life,” according to advertising.
\nThe production follows the everyday heroes like Mr. Xtreme, a security guard by day and night watchman who patrols the streets of San Diego, or the New York Initiative, a quartet of Brooklyn neighborhoods custody. The documentary premiered at the Slamdance Film Festival.
\nVigilantes and mask layer without superpowers are fictional material in recent years. Movies like “Kick-ass” (2010), “Defendor” (2009), and Chile “Mirageman” (2007), with Marko Zaror, touch the subject.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
