Because you demanded it -- Ring Starr, superhero?

The Hollywood Reporter has word that ex-Beatle -- and star of Caveman -- Ringo Starr has signed a deal with Stan Lee's POW! Entertainment to develop a multimedia franchise in which the musician will play (wait for it) a superpowered version of himself. The project will start off as a 60- or 90-minute DVD, but there are plans for television and feature film.

Words fail me.
