Christian's Superhero Adventure | Make-A-Wish Illinois

Christian saves the day as SuperBlack, a superhero with incredible abilities to protect the city from the world's villains. Deep within, Christian always knew he was strong. As a baby, his family discovered his congenital heart condition after a crisis with his breathing. “There were some nights I didn’t think he would make it,” Christian’s mother Marian shared. He endured several surgeries and now is feeling pretty healthy thanks to his supportive relatives, close monitoring of his condition and daily medication. Volunteers arranged for Christian to meet with local artists to share his vision, which they drew into comic book illustrations of him used to make his costume. Then, it was off to the Chicago Police Department for some fight training. With help from some local organizations and national sponsor Watertree Health, Christian’s superhero wish came true in a spectacular way. He was summoned by a SuperBlack signal light that this help was needed. SuperBlack and his aide-de-camp, played by Shane Power, CEO of Watertree Health, devised a plan and then he was off to save the city accompanied also by his sidekick SuperRed, who is also his little brother. SuperBlack and SuperRed fought villain after villain across the city. Christian traveled by police motorcade from McCormick Place to the Adler Planetarium and finally to Maggie Daley Park, taking out bad guys one after another in all of these landmark locations. Christian’s mother Marian was so touched to see how the wish experience was encouraging her son. Video by Charlie Hilbrant Films.
