YES. Although I think there should maybe be some special qualifications for literary heroes to make sure they conform to the superhero theme. Namely, I think characters ought to be from the sci-fi, fantasy or action/suspense genres. In other words, I'd prefer not to see Mr. Darcy have a profile here. But it makes sense to me for character like Dorothy, Sherlock, Tarzan, John Carter and others to have profiles. Unfortunately, they weren't often seen in golden age comics, because at that time, they were still under copyright. But they are amazingly colorful characters, worthy of comic book adventures!
