Hero leads people to a deeper life that is beyond the normal needs or "material desire". We can see multifaceted heroes in daily life. They are people idealized for courage, outstanding achievement, and noble qualities. There are many female women who are fierce, strong and full of courage to reach for big dreams. I think through movies, literature or dramas, people can spread out the message of the good behaviors to society. They will inspire and encourage humankind to thrive for a better manner and become a handful person to build the world.

Movies or books play a significant role to shape the society and form the cognition from a generation to the next. They are a good means to lead people not only to enjoy, relax their life but also educate and reinforce people’s personalities; strengthen and enrich their inner strength.

Now Alison is going to college and trying to find ways to help the world while still getting to class on time. It’s impossible to escape the past, however, and everyone has their own idea of what it means to be a hero….”

11. The Super Natural Woman? A Book by Marcus Williams

Super Natural is a superhero character I created to be used as a supporting pivotal character in Anthony Piper’s superhero parody entitled “Trill League“. In the world Anthony created, she sticks out like a sore thumb in comparison to the other character’s personalities. This was intentional as she is designed to be a vehicle of pseudo normality that readers can anchor to when things get too crazy. Her name refers to her moral stance against portraying herself as anything but a natural black woman. This includes her appearance, her diet and her lifestyle. Super Natural is not from earth, yet she has come to make a home here after some quick transitions into city life. She is immensely powerful and nearly invulnerable to all physical damage, but not immune to the everyday stresses of living in american society.

12. Jubilee: Jubilee, once a teenage mutant, became a member of the X-Men who could release colorful explosive plasmoids and detonate matter at a sub-atomic level. Robbed of her powers by M-Day, she has since been transformed into a vampire. After adopting an orphaned baby boy, Shogo, she got a job working for Patsy Walker AKA Hellcat. Most recently, she is in charge of teaching and leading a group of teenage mutants in Generation X.
