Superheroes get help

A federal judge has ruled in favor of costumed "superheroes" being able to perform and take pictures with fans along Hollywood Boulevard:

Should have known Batman & Superman would come out of this a winner.

Interesting picture with the article. Is that someone pretending to be superman, or is that a statue of some sort??? It really looks like Christopher Reeve as Superman!!!!!

That looks like a person in a costume to me. I don't think I statue would look quite like that.

Anyway, it's good that the judge ruled in favor of freedom of expression. From the anecdotes in the article, I don't doubt that some of the performers are exceeding the bounds of reasonable free expression. However, I'm glad the judge didn't issue a blanket ban on this kind of expression.
