Superhero Artifacts

Spider man is probably one of my favorites because he saves so many lives. Plus he looks cool and can pretty much do anything.

I like this photo because it shows so many different super-heroes. They all look so strong, confident and powerful with their stances.

"Extraordinary powers and abilities, relevant skills, and/or advanced equipment. Although superhero powers vary widely, superhuman strength, the ability to fly, enhanced senses, and the projection of energy bolts are all common. Some superheroes, such as Batman and the Question possess no superhuman powers but have mastered skills such as martial arts and forensic sciences."

This is an interesting piece of information and pretty awesome that they are all a little different in their own way. I also never knew that Batman didn't have any superhuman powers...




This is simply a video showing some super-hereos, nothing too special, but I gotta say that the music sounds very heroic.

SONG LYRICS
BY BONNIE TYLER
Where have all the good men goneAnd where are all the gods?Where's the street-wise HerculesTo fight the rising odds?Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed?Late at night I toss and turn and dreamof what I need[Chorus]I need a heroI'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the nightHe's gotta be strongAnd he's gotta be fastAnd he's gotta be fresh from the fightI need a heroI'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning lightHe's gotta be sureAnd it's gotta be soonAnd he's gotta be larger than lifeSomewhere after midnightIn my wildest fantasySomewhere just beyond my reachThere's someone reaching back for meRacing on the thunder end rising with the heatIt's gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet[Chorus]Up where the mountains meet the heavens aboveOut where the lightning splits the seaI would swear that there's someone somewhereWatching meThrough the wind end the chill and the rainAnd the storm and the floodI can feel his approachLike the fire in my blood

If you just read these lyrics and don't sing it or go along with the tune, it sounds like the person is relying on the hero and they are waiting for one (hero) to save their life. It is saying that the hero/heroine has to be strong, fast, sure, big and able to fight, and confident.

ARTICLE ABOUT HEROES WITHOUT POWERS
We all know about all those superheroes with magnificent powers. Superman comes from another planet and possesses many powers beyond that of a mortal man. Peter Parker is bitten by a radioactive spider and now has the enhanced abilities of an arachnid. The Incredible Hulk gets dosed with gamma rays and becomes a hulking monster impervious to pain.
There are tons of characters just like this that possess amazing abilities that allow them to do what normal human beings can’t do. But what about those heroes that go out there in costumes every day with no powers? And no, I’m not talking about real life heroes, like policemen, firemen, doctors, the military and the like. I’m talking about fictional characters with nothing more than skills, tools or intelligence that fight crime against powered villains having no powers themselves.
The most obvious example of this is DC Comics’ Batman. Bruce Wayne is a rich boy with nothing but money and intelligence, but through diligence, perseverance and extensive training, he develops the skills and buys the tools necessary to do the job. And because of that ingenuity he has become one of the most iconic heroes today.
Then there’s marvel comics ironman, who is another rich, intelligent guy with a lot of tools. But unlike Bruce Wayne, Tony Stark doesn’t submit himself to years of training. Instead, he builds a powered suit that does all the hard work for him.
What about The Punisher? If you can call him a hero. He has nothing but a lot of guns and explosives and some former police training at his disposal, yet he wipes the city clean of thieving scum night after night.
Then there’s Daredevil, who is blind, but has heightened senses and extensive martial art skills. Even with a disability, the man manages to go out every night to one of the worst areas in the country and fight crime with all his might.
The list goes on and on. While there are far more super powered heroes flying, swimming and running around, there are a good number of heroes with no powers, but a heart and determination to do the right thing.
So who is the greater hero? The man who can lobotomize you just by looking at you all the while bouncing bullets off his chest, or the guy wearing purple tights with nothing but a quiver of arrows to shoot at you? You tell me.

So there are hereos with a heart that are determined to do the right thing and the good thing and then there are some with many super powers that help them save the world. It's hard to say which I would want. No powers or powers? Defiantely powers, but also a heart and wanting to the right thing.





Conclusion:
i think that I have already come to a conclusion about superheroes. Many have powers past the human ability whether it is stamina like the Hulk or stregth like Spider man. There are good superhereos and then not so good ones who could be considered as Villains. Superheroes can have weapons such as shooting pistols from their chest or superb technology yet some can have human abilities such as be able to fight off burglurs with their own hands. Heroes really are amazing and can help so many people and save so many lives. However I believe anyone can be a hero!
