Rainbow Scratch On Lcd

What makes a hero as it is?

E' una cosa su cui mi lambicco da tempo, anche perché ho un conto aperto con la figura dell'eroe, visto che faccio una gran fatica a scriverne.
Per carità, gli anti-eroi e i cinici bastardi mi vengono benino e sono ampiamente soddisfatto dei mie pazzi pscicotici... ma gli eroi, quelli veri, ancora devo capirli a fondo.

Il primo meccanismo che mi viene in mind is that the hero is defined by the actions he makes.
The hero rarely works right and wrong.
A good example of this aspect is given to us by Tex and the many heroes of Western movies.

But this is enough? Just the fact that a hero takes bold action, fighting for the right and little wrong?
I am not convinced.
If it were all here, people "are weak and fallible" would not be heroes. Yet a Dylan Dog is a hero in full.

The reasons then.
Superman wants to "lead by example, show that humans can aspire to a better world if everyone does their part. It is not driven by personal purposes and does not indulge in the most barbarous instincts of our be.
Even Dylan is a boy scout and acting on the best grounds in the world (and one hundred pounds per day, plus expenses).
So according to this principle, Batman is a hero, because it leads its own private war against crime for purely personal reasons.

reflecting on for good, for me it is such a hero for those who surrendered.
A hero accepts the price of "doing the right thing" and pay the consequences.
The Double Life of Superman, Batman's loneliness, dysfunctional life of Jack Bauer, the great difficulty of Peter Parker, the expectations that Captain America is forced to carry on their shoulders and so on.

It 'the key hero in the round, most of the reasons for his actions, most of these actions and of their success.

The key is the sacrifice.
Sacrificing something personal for a greater good that you maybe do not have any beneficial effects and staff about the hero himself.

Better than me just this concept so simple. Typically this is the kind of thing that escapes me.
