Sherman Alexie is a Native American from the Spokane Reservation. He is the author of “Superman and Me.” An essay about how he taught himself to read at an early age and how he advanced very quickly. Alexie learned to read with a Superman comic book. Before he knew how to read he would look at the narrative above the picture and he would pretend to read the words aloud. He would say aloud,” Superman is breaking down the door.“ Alexie learned quickly. While his classmates were reading “Dick and Jane“ Alexie was reading “Grapes of Wrath.” Stereotypically, Indian children were supposed to fail in the classroom. Alexie was one of the few to not live up to those expectations. Alexie did anything but fail. The essay states, “As Indian children, [they] were expected to fail in the non-Indian world.” Alexie told himself, “I refuse to fail. I am smart. I am arrogant. I am lucky.“ Alexie read anything that had words and paragraphs. He read everything everywhere he went. His father bought hundreds of books, Alexie read them all. “If he’d been anything but an Indian boy living on the reservation he might have been called a prodigy.” These were the words Alexie used in his story. In Alexie’s adult life he became a writer and now visits schools and teaches creative writing to the Indian children. Alexie is the author of hundreds of poems, stories, and articles now. Most of the children read his stories and write their own, He is trying to save the Indian children’s lives.…

On the other hand in Batman the dark knight the “Joker” represent evil, chaos and anarchy, the Joker has no purpose in this movie but to create chaos in the city “Joker: Oh, you. You just couldn’t let me go, could you? This is what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object. You are truly incorruptible, aren’t you? Huh? You won’t kill me out of some misplaced sense of self-righteousness. And I won’t kill you because you’re just too much fun. I think you and I are destined to do this forever.” Here the Joker is expressing his feelings towards batman and he says that he does not want to kill batman because he’s having too much fun, meaning that he wishes to continue creating chaos in order for Batman can be there to stop him or interrupt him. This shows that the Joker only seeks chaos and destruction and represents darkness in “Batman the dark knight” such as the witches also represent darkness and chaos in “Macbeth”.…
Batman Begins and the Babylonian Epic of Gilgamesh both feature the story of a culture hero. In both of these works, the heroic quest of the culture hero is significant. Apart from having similar narratives, these two stories also have significant differences in themes. In The Epic of Gilgamesh, Gilgamesh becomes a hero for fame and immortality, while in Batman Begins; Bruce Wayne becomes a hero to avenge the deaths of his parents and at the same time protect the city of Gotham. These two characters also show a difference in the conflicts that they face as they fight against overwhelming circumstances. Gilgamesh is at odds with mortality, while Bruce is at odds with the corruption of human nature. One can say that Bruce is also concerned with mortality, since the death of his parents was the main reason for his doings. But instead of directly facing mortality, he attempts to strike the system that creates it. Therefore, it can be seen that both Gilgamesh and Bruce Wayne are heroes of some kind, because they both have heroic characteristics and because they posses bravery against overwhelming circumstances. Nevertheless, they are very different in the way they plan to fight against the simple threat of physical human and social decay.…
Frank Miller’s Batman: The Dark Knight Returns questions what is right and what is wrong. It makes you wonder if the government is the bad guy, or if it is the criminals, or maybe even Batman himself. Miller uses duality and creates closure to show that there is always another side of the coin and all you have to do is flip it to see it. He also uses art to build context and tension by starting with art that is abstract. The art slowly changes to brighter colors and less abstract art as the tension of the plot builds. With the use of an iconic archetypal vigilante seeking justice, Miller also emphasizes the ever-present question of morality.…
2. Historical and cultural aspects did not affect the film directly; however, it directly affected the original comics, which the film is based from. The comics were conceived in the 1930’s by Bob Kane. Bob Kane drew inspiration for the character of Bruce Wayne/ Batman. Films such as the Mark of Zorro and the Bat Whispers inspired Kane for some of Batman’s characteristics. The aspects of the Mark of Zorro that Kane used was the idea of that the government is insufficient to keep the villains in heck, as a result, the protagonist takes up the responsibility to defend his city. This…
Over spring break I went shopping at the Hanford mall for more clothes, and me and my grandmother went to the movies to watch “Batman v Superman”. The only place that I went besides Hanford was Tulare to visit with my extended family for Easter. On Easter i went over to my aunt and uncle’s house, and arranged an easter egg hunt for my little cousins then later barbecued and told stories.

The Dark Knight was portrayed in many different ways, by an animated series, movies in the 90's, but the best take on the comic book favorite is the dark and twisted version directed by Christopher Nolan.

The superhero that I would like to change places with for a day is Batman. We all love to cheer for our heroes but at the same time we're really intrigued by the villains. There's just something about them that captures our interests , even more so then the heroes. Batman has the personality of a villain but the heart of a hero, so he's the best of both worlds. It's a way for us to have a mythic cake but eat I too. That's what makes batman such an interesting character , he looks,walks,talks and acts like a villain but he's the good guy. He's doing it for a good cause, so it's okay for us to enjoy it. Rather than that cookie cutter mold of a hero that super man fits perfectly, batman breaks that mold. He doesn't act the way that a hero typically…

As mentioned earlier, Batman and Superman eventually start to fight, as Batman calls him a sellout for letting the government abuse of his powers. In the scene batman utters, “And it has to end here on this filthy patch street, where my parents died” (190, 4). Batman is referring to crime alley where he eventually dies of a heart attack, the same place where his origin or initially “birth” began. It was the heart drive and tenacity that made him who he is Batman. However, in this cased his own will and heart has failed to make him achieve another victory. Ironically, on his return to crime alley, he received a loss where he is portrayed as the “criminal” and has been defeated by the national heroic figure of Superman that that the government prefers. All births eventually come to an end, making batman’s physical mortality genuine and the termination of his heroic cycle.…
