Defending Our Myths and Heroes Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mythsandheroes/ Defending Our Myths And Heroes is dedicated to doing just that. Our mission is twofold. Part one: Preserving the image of what DMH considers to be our modern day myths. To us Batman and Superman are the modern day King Arthur. We do this by respecting the characters in every way we interpret them. The second part of our mission is to contribute to our real life heroes. These include but are not limited to firefighters, police, military personnel, educators, and individuals in certain medical fields. Every year DMH will donate a portion of its proceeds to a foundation of our choice.
