About this word search

Most comic heroes need a base and a way to get around. Headquarters, a Hideout and a Lair are all on this list, along with a Rooftop and a Skyscraper to leap between. Gadget and Utility belt cover the gear, and a Signal in the sky calls the hero to work.

Every direction is allowed on this eighteen by eighteen board, backwards included. Secret identity and Super strength are long and good to start with. Then try rare letters: the X in X-ray vision, or the K in Sidekick and Skyscraper.

Older kids who draw comics can use five words from the list to plan a story of six panels.
