Hero Guy

Hero Guy is Baby Bear's imaginary superhero friend, who was introduced in the street story from Episode 3915. 
In a series of sketches on Sesame Street, Baby Bear brings Hero Guy to life by drawing a picture of him and singing his theme song. These sketches first aired in Season 32, became one of the main features in Season 33, and appeared on occasion until Season 38. When Hero Guy, who is also a bear, springs to life as an animated character, he and Baby Bear embark on adventures together. Although they often face unexpected challenges, Hero Guy never fails to save the day.
Hero Guy's voice is nearly identical to Baby Bear's, which is perhaps to be expected given his status as Baby Bear's creation.
