The return of American super heroes!! 96540346 Andy

　　Films about American super heroes are productive in recent years. Even if you are not interested in watching movie, I think you still can noticed that in recent years, movies about Amierican super heroes are very common to see.

　　I'm a HUGE fan of American super heroe\ comics and cartoons. And it is not that easy to have the chance to glance an American super hero comic or cartoon here in Taiwan. So, every time I know that there is going to release a new American super hero movie in Taiwan, I am SO excisted!

　　There are two major super hero comic companies in the united states, one is MARVEL Comic and the other is DC Comic. Both of them were purchased by huge companies; MARVEL Comic was purchased by Disney in 2009 and DC Comic was purchased by Warner Bros years ago. As you can see, these two buyers are all really big companies around the world, which means American super hero comic and cartoon is a big pie that every one wants a bite.

　　

In MARVEL Comics, their icons are

Spider man

Iron man

Incredible Hulk

Fantastic 4

The Punisher

X-men

　　And in MARVEL Comic, super heroes consist a team "The Avengers"

　　

　　In the DC Comic, their icons are

Superman

Batman

　　It is very intresting that also in DC Comic, super heroes consist a team which is "Justicy League"　These are the films that I think Taiwanese people are more familiar with.

　　Super heroes have became the pronoun of the states, whenever you heard any super hero, I bet the first thought pop out in your mind is America. The reason why super heroes comics and cartoons are so common and popular in the states, first, I think the "heroism" has a lot to do with it. As you can see, in many american films "heroism" existed. For example, Die hard (a series of action movies that Bruce Willis as the main character John McClane) and 007 (a very famous series of spy movies), the main characters in these two movies are so "incredible " that looks like no matter what happen they can always solve the problems alone. And I think there is another reason which is because of the "war". An American hero comic was written in the time of the "cold war" in America, The Watchmen which the movie realised in Taiwan last year. After I watched the Watchmen, I think the reason why created Watchmen is because at that time, people in America were all living under the terrible atmosphere of the "cold war", they don't know when the war will break out, they have no idea what is going to be tomorrow, maybe tomorrow is the doomsday, you can't say.  So, someone created a group of  heroes to fight with bad guy, to maintain the peace of the city. Though these heroes don't have any super power except the Dr. Manhattan (the only one who has super power in the watchmen), they are still the heroes that stand up to fight with the bad.
