Thank you for generously supporting Parker in this year’s competition. Your participation made a huge impact for The Stan Lee Foundation and their mission to promote literacy and the narrative arts.
Parker’s favourite superhero is Wiccan, aka Billy Kaplan, for many reasons. She admires how he stands up for himself and others, chooses to stay true to himself despite the temptation of absolute power, and embraces being openly queer. Wiccan inspires others to be themselves and represents many of the qualities Parker admires and tries to embody in her day-to-day life.
Parker's love for superheroes probably comes from her dad's love for superheroes. When he was a child comic books were a really big thing, his love for them grew even more though when he finally had the money to buy himself as many as his heart wanted. But pretty soon comic store trips went from just him too him and a young girl keen on being educated in what her father loved.
Parker would want to have the superpower of Dream Hopping as she calls it. It is the ability to enter and manipulate the dreams of others, altering their perceptions and even creating new dreamscapes. She wants to help people not only physically but also by helping what is holding them hostage in their minds.
