From [[Sora|<font color=#A394CB>Sora</font>]]'s buddy to [[Ansem|<font color=#A394CB>Ansem</font>]]'s chum, from a blindfold to a dark hold, [[Riku|<font color=#A394CB>Riku</font>]]'s been through a lot. He's a savvy [[Keyblade Master|<font color=#A394CB>Keyblade Master</font>]] now and that's all that matters! But Riku is more than just a keyblade wielding ex-vessel. Riku is a superhero. How much of superhero? Well, let's talk about how Riku sizes up to the popular comic book heroes of today. Let me tell you how everybody's favorite teenage darkness-lover fits in with the justice crusaders we know and love...

Finally, we get to the big guns: Riku's powers and gadgets. How would they fit into the modern day superhero context?

*Graciously, the [[Way to Dawn|<font color=#A394CB>Way to Dawn</font>]] is one of the few Keyblades that resembles actual swords. You can bet bad guys would be taking Riku seriously when he's swinging that around.[[File:Reunion with Riku 02 KHRECOM.gif|thumb|right|So that's how superheroes suit up so quickly...]]

*Riku has an uncanny knack for sniffing out darkness, which may actually be useful in detecting deceit or evil intent.

*He can use magic! For a comic book explanation, Riku could be able to channel the unpredictable dark energy found in atoms into fireballs and barriers. He can even open Corridors of Darkness, ripping through time and space for quick travel. These powers actually fit in quite well with the supernatural, magic-y section of the DC Universe (Wonder Woman, Trigon etc.).

|flickrushmailbagquestion2=What is the difference between the Keyhole and the Kingdom Hearts Wiki at KHWiki.com?
|flickrushmailbaganswer2=I can name historical differences, but I doubt I can name new ones owing to my absence from the Keyhole. Kingdom Hearts Wiki needed a sense of semi-professionalism, as I mentioned above, with the skins, while the Keyhole was sort of remodelled into a fan site. And so its tagline for quite a while was "Ye Olde Kingdom Hearts Fansite". Right now, however, people tell me that the functions of the Kingdom Hearts Wiki and the Keyhole aren't too far removed from each other.
