"Up-up and away !!"

The creation of super hero's have been around for awhile now. Even more popular then ever today. There big business and everyone young and old has there favorite's and can relate to him or her somehow.  Whether a interesting back story/origin. Or a special power/ability we admire or dream we could duplicate. Super hero's created by marvel, DC comics or whom ever else have been and made a huge impact on regular real life people for a very long time now. The idea and design of these character are simply amazing. The look of them are that of regular people. And the designers have made a strive to create hero's of color now. Back then only white characters were created but times have changed and people of color need hero's they can physically relate to aswell. The origins and background stories created by the designers are a big part of Why average people love super hero's also. Real life stories of struggle and rough beginnings. Absuse or bullying. Or doubt and adversity are the real life things we all face as real life people. So seeing someone of super abilities go through these problem's helps the audience build a connection to the hero. Comic book to the big screen to everything in between shows the evolution of the super hero. Paper, ink, pencil, and paint have been transfer into actors, screen plays, and wardrobe. So I guess you can say the materials have changed. Yet the original meaning of the super hero has not changed. Good vs evil, cool powers we all wish we had. And a hero we can admire and depend on. A play on emotions that we can all relate to. Elaborate designs of costumes, great special abilities, and implementation of emotions and real life struggles that average everyday people endure through out life is what made and continues to make the creation  and concept of super heros a good design.
