faith in something larger than yourself. For this reason, I believe Wonder Woman is a great example of a superhero that is classified as contemporary mythology. Aside from Superman and Batman, no other comic-book character has lasted as long as Wonder Woman, who happens to be the most popular female comic-book superhero of all time. Like every other superhero, Wonder Woman has a secret identity, but unlike every other superhero, she also has a secret history. She is a character with great…

deciding between two movies, Thor Ragnarok and the Justice League. Would you choose the one where the hero is dark and dresses like a bat or the one where the hero is constantly making jokes and comical things happen regularly. There are many ways Marvel is better than DC, one of these reasons is the fact that Marvel’s characters are more positive than DC’s, I mean would you prefer a superhero who fights with pink swords and guns with flashes of pink sparkles and stars when they make contact? Or…

Two of the most iconic superheroes, born from DC Comics, are Wonder Woman and Superman. Superman first appeared in DC Comics in 1933. Wonder Woman debuted approximately ten years after, in 1941. They both have evolved over time but remain popular to this day. Most people consider the heroes to be unalike; therefore, parallels between them are seldom made. It is often thought that the commonalities they share are merely vague and minimal. This may be due to their obvious difference of gender;…

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. I actually filter the heroes I love, so I have deep knowledge about the most famous heroes like Iron man and Captain America. However, I do not know any history of other characters. Watching Black Panther was a good start of getting to know about others. First of all, about the quality of the movie…

Superman is the ultimate superhero and is considered an American cultural icon. He first appeared in Action Comics in 1938. Created by two jewish high school students, writer Jerry Siegel and artist Joe Shuster, Superman helped to define the superhero genre. That same year he was sold and became an official member of DC Comics, where he continues to appear over the years in comic strips, television series, and feature films. Superman has it all. His strength is practically unlimited. He can…

Hero. The first thing that one thinks of when they hear the word is most likely a person with the superhuman abilities of being able to fly, read minds, or easily crush anything in their path. While, most heroes do not possess all of these traits, they do exhibit some. In Beowulf by unknown, the main character, Beowulf, is a great hero to the Danes. He demonstrates his heroic qualities when he defeats a strong monster named Grendel with just his bare hands and saves the Danes from more pain and…

As with almost every superhero fan I know, I fell in love with Tom Holland’s Spider-Man in last year’s “Captain America: Civil War.” As such, despite some recent lackluster attempts at Spider-Man movies, I was extremely excited for Holland’s solo outing, even though Spider-Man is not one of my more beloved superheroes. For the most part, this movie proved a satisfying picture. Set a couple months after “Civil War,” Peter Parker/Spider-Man (Holland) is eager to become a full-fledged Avenger. He…

Superman was a kid that lived on Krypton and then was sent to Earth. Superman has some of the best powers. This makes him the best superhero that lives. Superman uses his powers for good not for bad. Superman is a better superhero than batman because superman has powers, superman can fight anyone at anyplace and anytime, and superman doesn't need gadgets or weapons to win a fight be because he has powers. Superman is better than batman because superman has powers. First, superman can fly.…

but, at the same time, a disrespectful and insulting attitude towards female bodies. The following scene in which a sexual stereotype about black men is overtly present depicts John Hancock saving a woman, again white, from a firing line. The most comic moment comes when he asks her: “Do I have permission to touch your body? It is not sexual”. And only after the woman’s begging and impatient phrase “Get me the hell out of here!” John finally decides to take the lady to a safer location (Berg…

That astonishing, that's incredible, that's very very very fast. Superman’s top speed is 274 billion times the speed of light. But the flash does have his limits he draws his power from the speed force a concept presented in various comic books published by DC Comics, primarily in relation to the various speedsters in the DC Universe. The Speed Force was the extra-dimensional energy that powers all of the…
