Young artist creates Janet, the scissor-slinging superhero you don't want to mess with

She means business.

It's about time we had a new badass superhero thrown into the mix.

Forget about Batman or Spiderman or even Superman -- Twitter user @Manda_like_wine's daughter, Luca, has an idea for the hero to save us all.

Her name is Janet. And she is a green-haired vanquisher, ready to cut people in half with giant scissors at a moment's notice. Luca seems to have a very famous comic book in her future.

Oh, and Janet comes with perhaps the best tagline of all time:

"She's a hero only to herself."

I mean c'mon, could Janet be any cooler?

Janet has quickly become the internet's latest obsession, inspiring others to be heroes to only themselves, and take on any villains that get in their way.

Some even created their very own versions of Janet and the result is is something quite special.

Luca is leaving Janet's mark everywhere, even bringing her to museums to be honored and studied forever. And she has a new weapon to destroy her enemies with.

No jerks are getting past that twig, let me tell you.

It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's Janet wielding a wide-open pair of super sharp scissors ready to ruin your day.
