The Outsiders is a great book focusing on loss, grief, and to be strong to move on in life, and the book was eventually turned into a film, however a movie can only be so long. Movies based off books are usually not everything the book was, for instance books let you go into the character’s head and some scenes that don’t further plot have to be cut, however no movie is perfect and neither are books both have to constantly be judged on what makes it on the final product and what doesn’t.

I have always been the adventurous type, I always sneak out of my window that's above my parents room and walk through the forest and lay in the field behind my house. The sky was mesmerizing after dark with the stars and the clouds. Laying on the ground, looking up into the sky, and trying to figure out what object the stars formed is relaxing to me. Almost every day my parents are yelling at my older sister, so I can get away with anything. I could walk out the front door at eleven o’clock at night

Marvel universe, despite dealing with science, also deals with supernatural, mystical elements and mythology too which brings out the essence
Superman; the all-American hero who has lasted for over three quarters of a century (Impact of Superman). It’s nearly impossible for a comic book character to exist that long and not change, and Superman is no exception. In fact, from sporting a mullet to fighting Nazis, he changes a lot. These changes may seem random at times, but they make sense when put under this lens; Superman is just mirroring America. Superman comics have changed to reflect society most notably during Great Depression, WWII
A hero can be classified by many things. A hero can be superman, a police officer, and even your mom, but what makes a hero? Is it someone who can fly or shoot laser beams from their eyes or someone who saves a baby from a burning building? I’ll admit some of these characteristics are far-fetched since I don’t know anyone who can fly or randomly saves babies on a normal day. All heroes, including super ones, all have something in common, they 're admired for their courage or an outstanding thing
Dark Night Rises, Batman Unmasked Batman, ‘The Masked Crusader', to put it mildly, is an immensely charismatic character. From the time of his introduction in a pure 1939's Detective Comics #27 of six pages, his character has advanced into one of the most intricate and appealing figures not just in funny tales, but as well in the realm of literature. Hilarious graphic book stars are in essence contemporary legends. Their stories have been told time and again, across several generations, by numerous
Throughout the history of literature, it is clear that some storylines occur more than others. An example of this is the classic hero’s tale; which in western literature has evolved from Greek epics such as the story of the warrior, Odysseus, to American comic-book superheroes like Superman.

The most successful cosplayers often spend days and nights at a time working on one costume, with the most skilled and dedicated creating their outfits from scratch. Perhaps the only people more interested in cosplaying than the cosplayers themselves
The Legend of Paul and Paula and Solo Sunny were both very popular films in DEFA history, but in a way, feel quite different from each other. The Legend of Paul and Paula, even with occasional dark moments, feels like an upbeat film overall. It is a film where an extraordinary relationship was made between two normal people. In Solo Sunny, the film has a depressing tone and seems, at least on the surface, to focus on someone special: a singer. In what ways were these two films different

The typical American monomyth portrays the image of a superhero starting off a normal life, moving into a supernatural one and becoming an icon which people look up to. They fight off evil villians and so the country feels safe and secure. They “save the world”. This was Joseph Campbell’s opionion on what a superhero was.

When I think of heros, I think of someone who has a voice when it matters, faces danger for others, and has the power to bring people together. In the book, The Outsiders, by S.E. Hinton, Johnny is my pure definition of a hero. In the beginning of the book, you’d least expect Johnny to be such an amazing

Bruce is usually portrayed as Episcopalian in the comics, but some other writers like Frank Miller have portrayed him as Catholic, but it wasn 't a question when it comes to saying him as a Christian. It was obvious from sources, like his older comics and animated series, that batman is religious and his parents were religious too.
