In the first chapter of Alan Moore’s graphic novel, Watchmen, a masked vigilante named Rorschach utilizes violence and pain as a method of achieving results. His method confirms and extends a few of the theories mentioned in Harvard professor Elaine Scarry’s published study, The Body in Pain. Rorschach’s violence on pages twenty-three and twenty-four of Watchmen stems from his mission to find out who brutally murdered Edward Blake, a fellow vigilante also known as “The Comedian”. Rorschach…

In today’s time, hero’s might have a different significance to others. But in my opinion, I am an old fashioned person, so when someone asks me what I thought a hero was when I was smaller I say that I think about a hero from the olden days.

In 1941, feminist Moulton Marston is able to crack the code with his creation of the Wonder Woman comic which follows Diana Prince, the lead character which mirrors the trajectory of the women’s movement in America (Dockterman).

The new Batman v Superman movie is one that has many fans skeptical. The replacing of Christian Bale with Ben Affleck is a move that could doom this movie from the start. It is not fair to judge a role before the movie is actually seen, but Affleck just does not seem like the king of guy who could pull of playing Batman.
