Superheroes

Comic-book naming is half typography and half taxonomy. The first name is the one on the cape. The middle is the one on the police report.

What separates good superhero middle names from bad: specificity. Atlas Storm is okay. Atlas Vega tells you the hero comes from somewhere. The middle picks the genre.

Below, forty heroes. Pick the one who walks into a room first.
