28 Heroes in the Night (Cover Story)
What makes someone want to dress in spandex and take to the streets to fight crime? Tea Krulos spent three years getting to know the secretive subculture of Real Life Superheroes. He found them to be alternately amusing, hysterical, inspirational, disappointing and terrifying.

20 Comics Unmasked
Paul Gravett introduces a major new exhibition exploring the subversive side of british comics.

36 Miracle Men
John Paul II once declared 123 new saints in a single day, and now the pope who was accused of 'canonisation inflation' is himself to be declared a saint. Ted Harrison examines the road to sainthood in the 21st century.

42 The Emperor's Witchfinder
Witch-hunts and social panics are nothing new, nor are they restricted to western culture. In his last FT article, Steve Moore looks at a violent Chinese incident from 2,000 years ago, where magic and politics intertwined, and explores some techniques of ancient eastern sorcery.
