What a hero is-response paper#5

Superheroes are the coolest thing since sliced bread. I don’t really care for superman or captain America or any hero like that. He has to have special attributes, special powers really. I’m going to compare my hero to Odysseus. To see which one is better, just read on.
I think for a hero to truly be a hero, he has to have a few Specific attributes. One attribute he should definitely have is to be able to get rid of pollution. That could really come in handy if he’s fighting in a sewer. Another attribute is that he should be able to fly. I really just think flying is cool because your up in the air and your kind of defying gravity…so it would be way cool if he could fly. The last attribute he should have (but which I don’t really care about) is…he should have green hair. You might know who I just described. If you guessed Captain Planet, then you’re right. Captain Planet is my idea of a hero.
Odysseus is definitely a hero, but not the type I described earlier. Odysseus is a strong, courageous man who would do anything so save his comrades, even if it means putting his life in danger. The bad things about him are: He doesn’t think about most things, he’s very curious, he can be reckless at times, and he’s willing to sacrifice some men to get back home alive. The bad things about Odysseus outnumber the good things about him. With Captain Planet, on the other hand, the good things outnumber the bad by quite a few. The good things about him are: He has green hair, he can fly, he cleans up pollution, and his name is totally awesome. The bad things about him are: He has blue skin, he has no one to help him except for five kids that use rings to summon him, and he doesn’t really have any enemies. I think Captain Planet won this fight.
Captain Planets life is…odd. He lives in five kids’ heads and only they can hear him. He can only be summoned to help by the five kids’ rings. Once he’s free, he stops any pollution and fixes anything that’s going wrong. I’m not really sure if he dyed his hair, or it’s just natural. All I know is, it’s freaking sweet though. His blue skin isn’t my favorite attribute of him, but it’s still pretty cool. He looks like that guy that was on the news a couple weeks ago that had blue skin because he drank too much colloidal silver.
That is what I think a hero should look like and do because having green hair, blue skin, the power to clean up pollution, and the power to fly is just awesome. And also, those are just appearances I would like to see. What a real hero is: Someone who is strong, the hero can possibly use magic, and they could have the power to clean up pollution.
