How do you define a hero? Some may define a hero with the ability to fly, or run fast; to others a hero may be saving someone who is in dangers; others may define a hero as one who is able to help another in various ways. Harry Potter is a orphan boy who find out he is a wizard and goes to a magic school, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. While he is at Hogwarts, he develops his supernatural qualities, goes on a journey, and defeats evil. Although Harry Potter is not a Epic hero in the same way as Odysseus, Harry Potter still fulfills the stages of epic hero cycle and proves that he is a hero by overcome obstacles and showing his bravery, and selflessness.

There are many different definitions of a hero. The Iliad presents two of those many definitions. In 750 B.C. Homer wrote this epic poem. This poem involves two characters known as hector and Achilles. Even though both hector and Achilles have there own notable strengths, one is more heroic than the other according to the traits of an epic hero, and the other is more heroic in the terms of the modern standards of a hero.

An epic hero can also be a warrior of some sort who performs extraordinary tasks that most find difficult. This hero is strong, smart, and brave.

So what makes a hero? What must a person have to be considered a hero? Is it his or her strength, powers, courage, morals, integrity, or knowledge? According to Joseph Campbell, a hero properly is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than himself or other than himself. So with the help of Joseph Campbell’s Hero’s Journey theory, evidence will be given to prove why the Flash is a hero, and not a cold hearted villain like Captain Cold.

What is a hero? When I ask myself this, a few things come to mind. Police officer, firefighter, superman. But what is a hero really? Someone who is brave? Strong? Smart? Perhaps, but I believe there is more. To me, heroic traits are selflessness, courage, perseverance, patience and many other things. Like beauty, heroism isn't skin deep. It isn't the cape that makes the hero, its the purpose.

The first act of protection comes from Flash the main character. Flash, also known as Barry Allen, cares for and protects his fiancé, Iris West, and his city, Central City. Barry will do anything to protect Iris and Central City. At the end of season three, a giant speed force threatens to suck up Central City. Barry realizes if he lets the speed force suck him up instead of the city, he will save the city. Barry lets the speed force take him away and he saves the city and, more specifically Iris. At the beginning of the first episode in season four of “The Flash Reborn,” the speed forces secures Barry in its clutches. Ever since Barry sacrificed himself to save the city and her, Iris stays in deep dismay. She reminds herself of the words Barry told her before he left, stay

To be a hero doesn't mean to wear a cape and a mask and have supernatural powers. Real heroes don't have to be superheroes. Most heroes are just average people looking to do right in the world. A hero also has many qualities among other things that help and let them be heroes.

The Flash is a Netflix Original series that stars Grant Gustin, who plays Barry Allen, aka The Flash. This series would fall under the classification of action/drama given that practically every episode has a different obstacle that The Flash has to defeat or overcome. Barry Allen plays a normal, CSI forensic scientist at the Central City Police Department. Although he appears as a normal person to almost everyone, there are few people who see the hero side of him. Heros come in many shapes and sizes, and Barry Allen is certainly not the person you would think to be a superhero. Barry appears and acts like a regular human who lives a normal life going through the motions every day, and continues that even after his gift of super speed is acquired. A hero is someone who is courageous, humble, patient, selfless; all of which are characteristics of the inner hero of Barry Allen.

The fans of the CW series The Flash are still undoubtedly disappointed that Grant Gustin did not appear as the Scarlet Speedster in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. However, BvS executive producer Charles Roven has just offered an explanation why the DC Extended Universe chose Ezra Miller to portray Barry Allen in the two Justice League films as well as The Flash solo flick!

''Barry?'' He tried again, jumping on his feet, barely stopping one second to make sure Caitlin was really out for the count before closing the remaining distance with the Flash. Despite all of his anger toward the hero, he didn’t wished for his death, especially after all the things he said to him. How could he just ignored Barry, moved pass him without checking if he was ok? Now, the Flash had no visual sign he was even breathing. Unless it was just because of the darkness playing mind tricks.

The origin story of a superhero can also tell us why they became a superhero. The Flash, Barry Allen, was a forensic scientist who was working late in his lab, which was the same night that a particle accelerator went off and exploded. The combination of the particle accelerator explosion, chemicals in the lab, and the bolt of lightning that struck Barry Allen; He was able to travel at amazing speeds. This only describes the process of how he got his powers but his drive to use these powers for good was something that happened to him as a child. When Barry was nine years old he witnesses the

What does make a hero a hero? Is it there looks? Alternatively, maybe is it their personality? However, the question is what are those essential qualities that make one a hero? Different people require different heroes to look up to or try to emulate. However, whoever it may be, they all possess certain qualities. My hero is my mother, for the reason that she is selfless, compassion, and courage. That kind of selflessness can often be premeditated, since concentrating on others' needs often winds up helping one accomplish one’s own goals. However, a heroic leader does so without any anticipation of a return. The display and concern show the care one has for others. This can often apparent itself in strong but gentle actions planned to increase the lives of others. Courage and bravery come to mind first when we think of heroism. However, it is difficult to achieve anything truly heroic unless one is up against overwhelming chances. As Nelson Mandela put it, "Courage is not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it." These minor acts of heroism rarely attract any notice. A true hero is always sympathetic, benevolent and shows a great deal of compassion and sympathy to those poorly or in agony. He or she keeps away judgements; that are oriented to the self and embraces an attitude that serves others.

Has there ever been a point in your life that you wished you could be a superhero or superhuman? Most, if not all, people’s answer to that question would be a resounding “yes,” including mine. Over the years, more TV shows and movies have begun to incorporate what we would consider to be our “heroes” into them. These shows, or movies, consist of a hero, or heroes, that are typically aided by friends and a team that help them fight evil; two examples of this are Arrow and The Flash. Hero shows, or movies, can be a quite broad category, but it can be broken into smaller categories like superhuman heroes, mortal heroes, dark heroes, or otherworldly heroes. The Flash is a superhuman hero while Green Arrow is a mortal, but dark hero. The two

What is heroism? Things preformed Superman, Batman, or The Flash? This is what most people think about when they hear the word hero or heroism. Although these characters show heroism, the definition of heroism does not have to be narrowed to the stereotypical hero. Many people have different concepts on heroism. A hero can be a ordinary person like a firefighter or cop. Heroism is a attribute that a person can obtain but they have to choose actions that help others like a fearless firefighter or cop helping others. Heroism also does not call for a reward for being heroic. Heroism is a quality or an act in all of us that a person uses to benefit for the good of other people even if there is a risk.
