Essay about Beowulf and Superman

Superman also is weak to radiation given off by a red sun. This radiation has often been artificially created to weaken Superman by his arch enemy Lex Luthor. While these two weakness can physically harm Superman his biggest weakness is in the love and compassion he has for all life but especially that of Louis Lane. Superman has shown affection

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 Houston, Texas there was a kid named John, but by weeks passed his name eventually became was Superman. He got this name by wanted to save a lot of people in danger. It first started when he saw a lot of people being in danger, so he wanted to make a change and help people. He started doing that but after a while he couldn’t help everybody so he started to get worried and wanted to stop. But he didn’t stop and he got better at it, then not that much longer he was helping everybody and the city was a safer place.

of his daily duty of “protector of the Earth,” Superman reacts instantly to the problems he

I believe Superman is the most tremendous DC Comics superhero out of all of them. First, he is a alien from a planet that has been destroyed. Saying that he is very comparable to The Doctor from Doctor Who, because there is only two of them left of their entire race. Both of these heroes never use violence. I say that because neither of them ever really kill anyone. Indefinitely they are really the best heroes in the end because nobody ever dies.

entire life is a series of unfortunate events and it broke him. He used the power he was granted to go back in time to save his mothers life. This caused a time boom. History itself changed. Bruce Wayne died in the ally 20 years ago instead

It's very hard for me to be silly about Superman because I've seen first hand how he actually transforms people's lives. I have seen children dying of brain tumors who wanted as their last request to be able to talk to me, and have gone to their graves with a peace brought on by knowing that their belief in this kind of character is intact. I've seen that Superman really matters. It's not Superman the tongue-in-cheek cartoon character they’re connecting with; they're connecting with something very basic: the ability to overcome obstacles, the ability to persevere, the ability to understand

Many generations of stories have shown that this character has been willing to risk all in order to keep mankind in peace. Doing this also shows that he has power over his own power. He does not use his power for the good of himself, but for the good of others. Superman is also not bound

For the supervillain, I chose Doomsday, one of Superman’s deadliest enemy. Doomsday is obsessed with being the strongest, fastest, and most powerful being. I am extremely competitive, and I strive to be the best, thus the reason why I love sports and video games. I am also obsessed with proving myself to everyone, whether physically or mentally; being a latino from the Bronx I spend countless hours practicing, studying, to achieve the highest reward possible and prove that I’m not just a statistic.

Before getting into that though, one must look at why Superman was created in the first place. Like stated earlier, he was created by two high school boys from Cleveland, Ohio. But what was the purpose of his creation? The 1930s did not exactly start so well for The United States of America, “The stock market crash of October 29, 1929 provided a dramatic end to an era of unprecedented, and unprecedentedly lopsided, prosperity. This disaster had been brewing for years.”

Both military and superman want to help people in need and are wanting to make an impact to help. But as said they have some differences about themselves. They care about humans and have a job in this world and that was what they decided to do in their life. Even though they do it differently then others it still works out in the end. Once you actually think about it there are so many things that are relatable to real life and non real life and how people are. Those were some differences and comparisons on superheroes and everyday

Superman Wiki states “it has been explained as a result of the planet Krypton having significantly greater gravity than Earth, leading its inhabitants to have significantly greater muscle mass.” This tells us that the only reason Superman has super strength is because planet Krypton has a lot more gravity than Earth which causes Kryptonians to have super strength. Superhero Database clearly states “it is generally accepted that his strength easily surpasses the capacity to lift 1,000,000 tons, but how much more is not known exactly.” This tells us the true strength of

Despite how different Batman and Superman are, they do make the world a better place in their own ways. They have a similar moral code that even the greatest of heroes find hard to stick by: that is to never kill an enemy, no matter how bad their path of distraction. Superman does not kill because his powers are so advanced, he can find ways around killing his opponents. He a true boy-scout, because a common motto Superman continuously states to people is that his powers do not put him above the law; he is not judge, jury, or executioner. In reality, the death penalty is seen as the only way to deal with a criminal or terrorist, before they can hurt more people, but Superman shows why this mindset cannot work. He symbolizes how we can find

Clark Kent, Kal-El, Man of Steel, and Man of Tomorrow are all the names for the one and only Superman. Superman is known for his powers, his kindness, and being the last Kryptonian from the planet Krypton. First reason Superman is the best is because he stands for what every human should be Within in all of us there is a great person, Superman is what people call perfect, but he is far from it he makes mistakes but the difference between most superheros and him is that he owns up to it and learns from it. He strives to be better to get people to realize yes, he is from out of this world and even if he is not human, he was raised on this planets by humans and he is more human than anything else and mistakes are natural. Superman knows what he

Now in these days everyone one likes to read comic books since they became part of our society. What makes them interesting is how entertaining they could get giving us different points of views on different stories of superheroes. Many of us believe that “Classic superheroes stories are wildly fun, suspenseful and exciting” (Tom and Matt Morris) forgetting the idea of what really makes a hero. Different perceptions of superheroes are considered based on their wrong actions and way of thinking. Frank’s Miller Batman: The Dark Knight Returns is one of the comic books that make us “rethink the conception of the superhero and press each of us to reconsider some of the fundamental moral principles
