Why not a super-villain cape for the dog? After all, he won't be offended or upset that he always has to be "the bad guy".
For this project I wanted to get inside the head of a real expert of the field. So like any normal person would do I popped The Incredibles in the DVD player and got started.
"A new suit? You push too hard, darling!"
"But I accept!"
"It will be bold!"
"Dramatic!"
"Heroic!"
Out came the notebook and the sketches started to flow. Then a snag......
"Do you remember Thunderhead? Tall, storm powers? Nice man, good with kids.... November 15th of '58! All was well, another day saved, when... his cape snagged on a missile fin!... Stratogale! April 23rd, '57! Cape caught in a jet turbine!.... Metaman, express elevator! Dynaguy, snagged on takeoff! Splashdown, sucked into a vortex!... No capes!"
This was followed by a lot of pacing and head scratching. Aha! I've got it! The neck closures will have magnetic snaps that will release at a moments notice, and will be simple enough for the youngest in your family to operate.
Yes! another day saved!
A secret identity? I don't know a single superhero who doesn't have one. Your identity is your most valuable possession and it must be protected. After all, who wants the pressure of being super all the time?
