Who Is The Guy In The Odyssey

The picture I chose reminds me of a guy from the Odyssey. This essay is about how- the picture at the bottom of the page relates to the Odyssey. They are both alike, both different but only one represents a hero. I am going to write about how they are alike, how they are different, and who is a better hero.

I think that the guy in the picture is cooler than Odysseus because his pose is pretty fire. The two don't really have that many differences. Although, I like the guy in the picture better I have to say that the Odyssey gives a better example of a hero.

The Odyssey is detailed, describes more about Odysseus and what he has done. He had to make decisions that could kill him or kill the people he cared about. Odysseus also has a cool bow that only he could string. He was also heroic because he fought mythical beasts. The picture guy may have done nothing heroic. He might have just been there for a photo shoot trying to make money. He might have been trying to earn money for college which could make him a hero... but just not
