In "The Thematic Paradigm", Robert Ray explains how there are two very different heroes: the outlaw hero and the official hero. The official hero has common values and traditional beliefs. The outlaw hero has a clear view of right and wrong but, unlike the official hero, works above the law. Ray explains how the role of an outlaw hero has many traits. The morals of these heroes can be clearly compared. Movies that contain official heroes and outlaw heroes are effective because they promise strength, power, intelligence, and authority to the viewer whether you are above or below the law. Society favors the outlaw hero because we relate to that character more. We see ourselves more in the outlaw hero than in the official hero. The outlaw hero has talents in the child that most of us wish we had as adults. To civilians it may seem like the outlaw hero is living more of a fantasy life that we all wish we had. Superman's image has remained unchanged over the years. A blue suit accompanied by boots, belt and cape have always been Superman's style, along with the Superman crest on the chest. Superman's real name is Kal-El, a descendant of the Kryptonian family of the House of El, with his father known as Jor-El and mother Lara. Kal-El's father discovered that Krypton was in its last seconds of life due to its sun's impending supernova. The other members of Krypton did not believe that Jor-El could not tell others about his answers and tests. Jor-El promised that neither he nor his wife would leave, and with every last possible option eliminated, Jor-El would send his newborn son to planet Earth. Kal-El then fell into the care of Jonathan and Martha Kent, two farmers from Kansas. He then adopted the Kent family name,......the center of the card......of the true meaning of "hero" in our world. In conclusion, my expectations were met because we all want to be a certain hero in everyday life, but sometimes we don't know which one is actually the best and most positive. Strength, power, intelligence and authority are the most important things that the outlaw hero and official hero will bring even if they are above a certain rule or truly below it. Outlaws aren't always the bad guys, but they aren't always the good guys either. In this case Batman is the good guy disguised as the bad guy. The official heroes are always the good guys, regardless of the circumstances. Superman in this case is the good guy disguised as a real good guy. Being above the law or against it, official heroes and outlaw heroes will always paint the picture that you can be strong, powerful, intelligent and have the authority you deserve.
