How to Use Superhero
To use the Superhero symbol (🦸) in HTML, insert the
entity 🦸 directly into your markup. The decimal entity 🦸 works in any HTML-serialised document.
In CSS pseudo-elements use content: '\1F9B8';.
In JavaScript and TypeScript the escape '\u{1F9B8}' evaluates to 🦸. In Python source, write '\U0001F9B8'.
The character encodes to F0 9F A6 B8 as UTF-8 bytes and D83E DDB8 as UTF-16 code units. Its decimal codepoint is 129464.
This is a fully-qualified emoji and should render with colour on iOS, Android, Windows and macOS. Appearance may vary between platforms, but the underlying codepoint is identical everywhere.
