The Book of Superman (Kal-El)

This was in the FAQ?

Q: What if Superman uses Heroic Duty to defend for another figure, but the attacker does not have clear sight to Superman? Are bonuses like height advantage determined by comparing to the original target of the attack, or to Superman?

A: After moving adjacent to the friendly figure that initiated the Heroic Duty power, Superman must defend against the attack that initiated the Heroic Duty power regardless of whether he is in the range or LOS of the attacking figure. Range and LOS only apply to the figure that was initially chosen for the attack.

However, since Superman is the one defending the attack, he receives any defensive bonuses against the attacking figure, including any height advantage he may have.

Just to clarify but this is a weird situation where both the attacking and defending figure could have height advantage in the right situation?
