The Shark will battle NHL evil, decimate your local seafood buffet

Here he is folks, the NHL Guardian Project superhero you’ve been waiting for: The Shark. He’s the entry for the San Jose Sharks; one of 30 characters created by Stan Lee’s SLG Entertainment to promote the league with the younger set. Of the 12 heroes released so far, I’m pretty sure that The Shark is the first to get to appointments by water skis. It’s kind of The Creature From the Black Lagoon meets Kelly Slater. Here’s his description:
A technological genious [yes, that's the way they spelled it] and software empath. Controls an army of sharks to assist him in battle.
Shark minions: Meet me at the mouth of Shipwreck Cove for a battle with evil!

It’s nice that they got the Silicon Valley angle in there. But while The Shark is truly awesome and all, I think he may have serious limitations on land, where 99 percent of evil occurs.
