I don't know. The idea that "twinky12" who goes on IM when his mommy and daddy go to sleep is, in reality, the 7-foot Supermensch who made Kazaam might just be enough to persuade a few more pedophiles to take up macrame or lawn bowling or something instead. And society wins.

Hmmm. I think he might be more successful as an undercover agent if he heeds the advice of his close friends (like maybe Bruce Wayne, Clark Kent or Peter Parker) who understand this super hero life he is living. I think they would tell him that the "undercover agent/super hero" handbook recommends that one be extremely discreet in every day life and let the heroics of saving the world be your source of fame. Or maybe Shaq has it right and I am the dumbass who did not know that every police department in the country thinks the missing ingredient to solving this pesky crime problem is a shortage of 7'1" pro athletes featured on 20 foot billboards in every city and NBA promos shown on three channels in prime time every day of the week and all day on the weekends. Only time will tell...

Only time will tell... I thought the whole idea was that he'd be doing "online" cop work, so his popularity and unique physical status wouldn't hinder him. Nobody knows what you look like when you are online. Heck, I could be Steve Nash, Nash the Slash or Slash from G'n'R! How could you tell?
