As much to help myself keep track of this in one place as anything else, and in case you haven’t caught all of the thought process and happen to be interested, here are the posts I’ve written over the course of the last year to categorize what I’ve been calling “the nature of a hero:”
The Nature of a Hero: Epilogue?
I hope you find the books, comics, shows, movies, and theology that drove my thought process forward interesting. Also, I tried to place all of the Avengers cinematic canon into these categories here:
The Nature of a Hero in Iron Man
The Nature of a Hero in the Incredible Hulk
The Nature of a Hero in Iron Man 2
The Nature of a Hero in Captain America
I may even continue adding to this as the thought process evolves, who knows. But there you have how I’ve gotten to where I am with this. Feel free to comment or contact me and give me your thoughts!
