Idea for a Spokane superhero

Ladies and gentleman, I give you Traction Man and the Friction Kid.

Or maybe No-Slip Woman and Black Ice Girl.

Their superpower? No, it’s not flying. More impressive than that.

Any of them could safely drive on slick roads without a care. They could remain upright when trying to get from here to there as a wintertime pedestrian. And in their spare time, they could solve a few crimes and save Spokane from frozen-water annihilation.
