Wikipedia says

A superhero or superheroine is a stock character that typically possesses superpowers, abilities beyond those of ordinary people, and fits the role of the hero, typically using their powers to help the world become a better place, or dedicating themselves to protecting the public and fighting crime.

So yes, he is definitely dedicated to protecting the public, but it feels wrong to call him a super hero. What do you think?

    I’m not using DnD terminology necessarily, but sure. Though I’d argue their melee is largely non-existent, and is completely “magical” in nature. Without the aid of a “spell”, a Lantern can be killed with a butter knife. That’s a more wizardish trait. Faith is also irrelevant from a mechanical standpoint. Magic is magic, doesn’t really matter where you got it from. That part is just flavor text.
