They are called "Spiderman" whose jobs are heavy, risky and difficult. Their life might be not as vivid and adventurous as other typical characters in all the…
While growing up, we all came to know the names Superman, Batman, Flash, Ironman, and various others. We see these heroes with supernatural abilities and capes, but not all heroes don them. A hero to me, is someone who helped when no one else would. If you look closely at society, you see the thieves, the abusers, and those who reach out for help but grasp only air.

escape from reality, so they turned to the “funnies” or comics. In 1933 the first true comic book was published.

I really love Marvel film series. I have never missed any marvel films, so I was planning on watching this film a few months ago when there were trailers being released. Overall, I enjoyed the movie.

Watching Black Panther was a good start of getting to know about others. First of all, about the quality of the movie…
