My last example was that Salva accepted fifteen hundred boys to walk with…

Kingdom Come, written by Mark Waid and Alex Ross, depicts the end of times in the DC Comic Universe at the hands of the Metahumans and “superheroes.” I will be analyzing the scene just after the conclusion of Chapter One, where Superman and other heroes are depicted flying inside the burning torch of the Statue of Liberty, in a silhouette of black and red flames. In this scene the reader sees Superman at the lead, accompanied, presumably, by other heroes of the Justice League, flying through…

Kids are assigned way too much homework on top of all of their afterschool activities, such as football, dance, horseback riding, baseball, softball, or any other sport or activity. So, do kids have enough time to just be kids? The answer is no. “To have them work six hours a day at school and then go home and work for hours at night does not seem right.

Needless to say, when she asked me to be her mentor throughout her schooling at Bemidji State University, I was thrilled. We met on a…
