« The superhero is not an exponential hero, but the very opposite of the hero. The hero is a tragic figure. He is a man who has chosen to have a glorious but brief life, rather than a comfortable life of any kind. The hero is a man who knows that one day or another, he will have to give his life. Nothing like Iron Man, Superman, Spiderman and other sad productions from DC or Marvel. They are not heroes because they are invincible, they do not feel the least fear, there is nothing tragic in them. These are supermen only from the angle of testosterone. In the true sense, they are "augmented men", merely representative of "superhumanism". We are miles away from Achilles or Siegfried. »
