Berta Andrews, home maker: I don't see why these "Superheroes" get all the attention. My husband is an iron worker and he slaves away every day to build this country. Does he get any recognition?
Reverend Josua Smith, Pastor: They're corrupting our youth. You see those guys all running around in tights, especially that bat guy and his little friend? They're all homosexuals. They'll bring God's wrath down on us, just you watch.
Herb Sexton, Psychology Professor: Has anyone stopped to think about what kind of damage these so-called "heroes" are doing to their victims? Don't these victims have the same rights that you and I have?
Jay Chin, Comedian: So these guys, they run around in these costumes, right? They're like policemen in ballet costumes. <laughtrack>
Howard Simpson, police commissioner: This department, and this city administration, does not support or condone these "masked vigilantes".
Peter Zyniger, anchorman for The Netword: Congressman Peter King of New York has asked the justice department to look into whether or not these "caped crusaders" fit the description of domestic terrorists. <cut to Rep King> "No matter what they SAY, they have tremendous destructive potential, and we simply don't know what their aims and motivations are. They haven't accepted the CIA's offers of legitimate employment, so we have to assume their aims are the destruction of America and her freedoms."
Bubba Davis, Tea Party Activist: SEND 'EM BACK WHERE THEY CAME FROM! THIS HERE'S AMURRICA!
"Wonder Woman", spokesman for the League of Justice: We know when we aren't wanted. We're leaving. You *#$%ers are on your own. <Immediately following this statement, the entire League vanished, along with what appear to be most of the nation's other superheroes>
One of the remaining superheroes, name withheld, interiewed at a local bar in Los Angeles: Yeah, so they don't want us. Well, fuck 'em. Let the bad guys have 'em. And they will you know, they'll be here in days. Just you wait and see. HEY BARTENDER! GIMME 'nother drink before I roast you were you stand!
Dr Doom, America's new overlord: ATTENTION, PEOPLE OF THE NATION FORMERLY KNOWN AS AMERICA. YOU MAY NOTICE THAT I AM WEARING YOUR PRESIDENT'S FACE AS A HAT. THIS IS TO DEMONSTRATE HOW THINGS WILL BE. YOU WILL REPORT - TODAY - TO YOUR LOCAL POLICE DEPARTMENT TO RECEIVE YOUR WORK ASSIGNMENTS. FAILURE TO COMPLY IS TREASON, AND WILL RESULT IN THE SUMMARY EXECUTION OF YOU AND YOUR IMMEDIATE FAMILY. THAT IS ALL.
Bubba Davis, former Tea Party Activist: HAHA! He killed Obammy! You tree huggers are in for it now! GODDAMN, IT FEELS GOOD TO BE AMERICAN! We can finally stand proud again! <Mr Davis was executed shortly thereafter for owning a gun, despite Dr Doom's prohibitions on the matter>

As of yet, I have only read the last two of these, but I really REALLY like this one. It would make a fantastic short film.

No, wait, WTF? Where did they all go?
Fucking deserved it. :argh!:
Sometimes people complain that the "general public" in superhero comics is portrayed as alarmingly stupid, reactionary, and hostile to people who are demonstrably working in their best interests. Personally, I think the only thing wrong with that is that it cuts too close to reality to count as fiction.
This is win.
:mittens: Loved Wonder Woman and Doctor Doom.
