| TV Superheroes is a superheroic campaign set in a composite universe based primarily (but not exclusively) on such TV superheroes as the Bionic Man, Michael Knight and the Invisible Man. The campaign uses the 4th Edition of the Hero System rules and features characters that fit thematically with the source material and that tie into selected elements from the numerous shows that make up the game world. |

Setting

- The show must be set in a world very similar to modern-day earth, especially with regard to society and generally-available technology.
- Within the scope of the show, knowledge of supernormal and paranormal abilities must be held to a minimum.
