Singer Chris Brown isn’t the hero America deserves, but the one that seems to never go away.

In a new YouTube video from Jason Steele, Brown is portrayed as a Superman-like superhero who fights off female villains by punching them repeatedly in the face. And when the opportunity arises for Brown to fight off a big, male villain, he cowardly decides “to sit this one out.”

Some of the dialogue in the video was inspired by Brown’s tweets following his recent Grammy win and the infamous police report filed after he assaulted ex-girlfriend Rihanna.

In less than 24 hours, the video has collected more than 95,000 views and 1,500 comments from people alternately defending Brown and lambasting him for his actions.

“Tell you what. When Chris Brown makes a legitimate stab at showing he’s sorry and stops being an arrogant jackass who shows absolutely no humility, then I’ll…no, he still beat a little 19 year old girl and sent her to the hospital,’ commented RyanFraer. “Fuck that guy.”
