An Austin artist — Chris Rogers — has created a mural…of O’Rourke as a Superman.

Which villain would that make Ted?

Rogers documented the progress on Instagram; according to Austin Monthly, the work required 40 hours of tender loving care.

The image portrays Beto with his shirt opened, revealing a “B” on his chest.

A press release unveiled the theme of the mural:

“Out of the darkness comes the light.”

Austin Monthly seems particularly psyched about the goofy painting:

“Rogers continues to bring hope with his newest mural.”

Hope! Continuously!

What’s SuperBeto’s kryptonite?

I anxiously await your comments.

Also — It looks like our hero may have a formidable rival:
