Its a bird, no its a plane, no its... (what i think about tristan heads blog)

       I decided to talk about Tristan Head's blog about Superman, first because he is my all time favorite superhero; second because if you think about it superman is very mythological.
      
       In Myth and Reality it says the myth "supplies models for human behavior and, by that very fact, gives meaning and value to life".  Superman has been doin this since 1938; countless of comics, radio shows, and episodes have been teaching millions about moral values and the good in people, little kids act like superman and value what he represents. In other words people all across the world love superman and what he is.
      Myths talk about the beginning of things usually about a supernatural being(s). Now even though kryptonians didnt create the earth or anything like that superman is the beginning; he comes from krypton known as Kal- El but then comes to earth and is found by the Kents and soon is known as Clark Kent this is his beginning and basically the worlds beginning since he was sent to earth to help humans. He is also a supernatural being with abilities (x-ray vision, speed, super hearing, flying) that help him through his journey of becoming Superman.
      Knowledge and the repeating of a mythological event are very important to myths. Superman carries knowledge not only from the world he lived in but also from his father Jor-El creating the fortress of solitude a sanctuary of kryptonian heritage where he gaines an infinite amount of knowledge so he may teach to humans on earth. The repeating of a mythlogical event, well Tristan and countless of other kids pretend and act out stories of supermans heroic adventures and moral stories. So kids everyday act out a ceremonial event based on the myths of Superman.
      Last but not least mythology has a beginning, middle, and an end. Supermans beginning is living in Krypton (paradise) having to leave the planet before its destroyed. He than is sent to earth and is raised by the Kents; when he gets older over time he learns that the world is chaos and destructive and that humans need his help, this would be the middle of supermans mythology. The end is him finally saving the world which hasnt happend yet in the comic nor television world but is said to happen in a prophecy.
      So thus coming to the conclusion of superman, i apologize for being a nerd but he is a myth to me that is. Tristan probably didnt know he was reciting or acting in a ceremonial recreation of superman so i would like to leave off with nice blog Tristan Head and thanks for giving me a topic to blog about.
