This is how slow Cape Breton is

Today on my drive into work, the news came on the radio. For the most part, it was the same useless drivel as usual, until the last story:

Superhero Spider-Man publicly reveals his true identity for the first time in a new comic book.

In the story, the web-slinging icon removes his mask and tells reporters at a packed press conference that he and Peter Parker are one and the same.

The storyline in the Marvel: Civil War series involves a new Superhero Registration Act that requires fantasy creatures to disclose their identities.

Spider-Man is part of the faction supporting registration.

"I've guarded my secret identity pretty carefully over the years," he says. "But I'm proud of who I am, and I'm here right now to prove it."

Thanks to BBC News

Many Cape Bretoners are relieved at the update. :P
