In this blog I will be illustrating the difference between summary and
analyzing. I will begin by summarizing the new American mythology
surrounding DC Comic book's character Superman. I will give evidence
that this character is an icon that stand for truth, justice and the
American way. I will then go on to proof that he is an example of the
American dream were and illegal alien is welcome in the United States of
America with open arm and respect.
The story of Super man begins when he escape his home planet's
destruction. He was send to earth in a spaceship that was build by his
father Jor el. The spaceship lands in Kansas were he is discovered by
his adopted parents Jonathan and Martha Kent. They raise him to be a
respectful, hardworking American boy that leads his life by code of moral
conduct emphasizing truthfulness and obedience to the law. That little
boy, Clark Kent, grows up to be a great reporter that struggles to balance
his human life and his alien destiny. He Saves the world from utter
destruction on several actions even after giving his life in defending the
planet earth was resurrected in order to save it a second time earning
the label of savior to humanity.
After analyzing the American mythology of the icon superman i
stumbled across some disturbing facts about im. I was shocked to find
that he is still to this day an alien who entered this country illegally.
Committed identity fraud by having a forged birth certificate and other i
dentity documents. Given that he has never admitted or received any
punishment for these actions, one can argue that he in fact does
not stand for truth or justice. However, he does in fact in-body the
American dream despite the aforementioned transgressions he is still
one of a very few illegals to migrate to this country that has been
welcomed and treated with respect. As is evident by his rating as the
number # 1 Super Hero in America by a 2011 poll of most liked Super
hero.
