Batman Hero

The Dark Knight directed by Christopher Nolan plays around the theme heroism in which the characters take roles of being the hero in their own distinct ways. Some continue to play the hero because of their morals and good character. Others become deemed to evil due to the horrible experiences they face. In the film The Dark Night, Batman takes the primary role of the hero because he continuously strives to achieve the well being of the city, while the joker chooses to cause havoc among the people of Arkham city.

The Byronic hero is immortalized as the bridge between epic hero and an anti-hero, in-between with the romantic and tragic hero as well. The main key elements that are present in many Byronic heroes is their sense of darkness and social exile, the struggle for acceptance not only from themselves but also from society, and finally internal traumas that were caused from past events. One of the modern characters that immortalizes the Byronic hero is DC Comics, Batman. From the original comic books, to television adaptations, and finally to the big screen, there is a lot of material that helps fixate him as a truly Byronic hero—all the way from his childhood to his adult and even afterlife years. Without describing all of the aspects, there

The air smelled sharply of chemicals, and smoke. You can hear sirens from the GCPD cars. The sound blaring from being so close to them was reading to the point when I heard my being called I missed it.

But whence digging past the loud colours and the "it's-a-bird-it's-a-plane," generic, one realises the true face of Superman. He isn't super for his inhuman abilities or his capricious appearance, he isn't a true man for his strong build and his appealing features:  Superman is super because he's what everyone should aspire to be, and he is a man because he melds the world in a form of good and good only. For if Superman wanted to, he could rule the world and no one would be able to stop him. Superman is, literally, a god among men.  He has the power to sink entire continents and kill millions of people with ease, but he chooses to protect everyone, good or bad, no matter how insignificant and tiny the life is for nothing in return. Superman is a hero because he's there for everyone, never compromising his ideals and taking the high road to support those in need. This is despite the fact that he could basically be a god lording over others without much trouble, but instead chooses to serve and inspire. That is why he is a hero. Superman is the ultimate hero, and not just because he is the most powerful being on earth but for his integrity which sets him completely apart. One could constantly remark on how Superman looks for the best in everyone, how he is ultimately loyal and selfless, not even considering the fact that he could rule the world but chooses to serve is the greatest compliment you can

In a very highly tense and stressful situation, people tend to go as far as they can to avoid the situation at all costs. There are only a handful of people who run towards the problem to solve it in hopes to save someone’s life.

He is persistently fighting crime in Gotham City, and will not stop until the criminals are put to justice. Even though his actions are more violent

Batman is a depiction of hope. Batman was the answer to a lot of people’s problems in a place where nobody felt safe like they should in their home. He was like the rain after a long, dry spell for

Many people think Batman and Superman are heroes because of their bravery and daring personalities but they are not true and honorable heroes. True and honorable heroes have to sacrifice for others, have good intentions to their actions, and make a difference in other’s lives. Others may argue that there is more to a hero than those traits or that you only need one of the traits but you can’t be a hero without all three traits even if you have other good traits to make up for it.

“It’s not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me.” Said by Bruce Wayne, explains how he feels about what he does as Batman. His actions as Batman prove him as an anti-hero. Christopher Nolan portrays Batman as an antihero through isolation of the character, and a dim setting of the movie.

Thomas Dixon Jr’s The Clansman: An Historical Romance of the Ku Klux Klan is a novel explores the Klansmen’s use of disguise by suggesting that it is utilized to enact vigilante justice on behalf of the victimized white people of the south. Chris Galaver’s “The Ku Klux Klan and the Birth of the Superhero” is an article that argues the modern superhero figure finds its roots in Dixon’s novel, however one can argue that the modern superhero is the very opposite of Dixon’s vigilante. It is important to note that Superman inverts the use of the mask, which Galaver argues is a key trait of the Klan in their pursuit of vigilante justice. The debut of Superman occurs four months after the Anschluss suggesting that a connection can be made between

“A hero is someone who, in spite of weakness, doubt or not always knowing the answers, goes ahead and overcomes anyway.” - Christopher Reeve.
