Action hero

An action hero is any character that lacks the superhuman powers that would normally be connotated in superhero. Instead of fighting crime using latent or expressed superpowers, they are normal people who use special devices (not limited to gadgetry and detective work), fighting techniques/martial arts or simple brute force.
