    Stan Lee's Involvement In Marvel Comics

    In 1961, Lee’s publisher, Martin Goodman, told him to create a series for Marvel Comics to counter DC Comics. Timely Comics had been changed to Atlas Comics and now it’s been changed to Marvel Comics. Lee worked with the illustrator, Jack Kirby and together they created the Fantastic Four. It wasn’t long before the duo created the Hulk, Spider-man, Doctor Strange, Daredevil and the X-Men. Marvel Comics became more and more popular and Lee was promoted to editorial director and publisher. In 1971, he wrote a story for bad-effects on drugs and included it in The Amazing Spider-man.

    Riveting tales of fortune, valor, and heroism he kind of tale where this larger then life characters go off on epic adventures in search of honor and treasure and also fight some amazing foes along the way. These tales can come in many different styles, themes, and ways they are told, but one thing all of these stories have in common is an epic hero. But what is a hero?

    The American dream is a symbol of hope, empowering the characters to endure the tribulationsof life. In Of Mice and Men, protagonists Lennie and George have created an American dreamthat one day they will "have a bigvegetablepatch and a rabbit hutch and chickens. And when itrains in the winter, we'll just say the hell with goin' to work, and we'll build up a fire in the stoveand set around it and listen to the rain comin' down on the roof [SIC]"(Steinbeck 16). The dreamis a stronghold; it allows them to endure the circumstances on the farm where they work. Bothmen dislike working on the farm because the boss's son, Curley is often very cruel and theconditions on the ranch are deplorable. However, they continue to work on the farm because "if we can get jus' a few dollars in the poke we'll shove off and go up the American River and pangold. We can make maybe a couple of dollars a day there, and we might hit a pocket [SIC]" (33).The dream creates an impetus for Lennie and George to stay within the intolerableconfines of farm to earn the money necessary to attain their dream. To them, "the dream of landrepresents independence and dignity; the American Dream" (Magill 4622). Theranchis asanctuary where Lennie and George can evade society and find acceptance despite Lennie'smental disability. Lennie is the beholder of dream, he constantly asks "George, how long's itgoing to be till we get that little place an' live off the fatta the lan'an' rabbits?" (Steinbeck 55).Although Lennie's mental disability hinders him and George from attaining the dream, Lennie'sinnocence allows them to pursue it. Without pursuing the dream, they would "be like all theother ranch hands, wasting money on whiskey and women, drifting aimlessly from one job to thenext" (Magill 4662). Lennie and George's dream provides hope; it keeps them from going astray.In The Great Gatsby, Gatsby hopes to marry Daisy Buchanan, a wealthy girl from the East Eggwho represents his American dream to rekindle the…

    Superman and America

    As you know, l'm quite keen on comic books. Especially the ones about superheroes. I find the whole mythology surrounding superheroes fascinating. Take my favorite superhero, Superman. Not a great comic book. Not particularly well-drawn. But the mythology... The mythology is not only great, it's unique. Now, a staple of the superhero mythology is, there's the superhero and there's the alter ego. Batman is actually Bruce Wayne, Spider-Man is actually Peter Parker. When that character wakes up in the morning, he's Peter Parker. He has to put on a costume to become Spider-Man. And it is in that characteristic Superman stands alone. Superman didn't become Superman.…
