A Valued Hero

Mr. Watson gave us for homework the task to write about a superhero that is someone whose characteristics you value. The superhero that I think has great values is Spider-Man, a wall crawling, and web-slinging guy, but also a hero with high morals.
Spider-Man's true identity is Peter Parker, and he is close to the exact opposite of his alter ego. He isn't always a superhero, but is there when someone is in trouble. His ability to be both a superhero and a normal person is something I value, because it shows that although Spider-Man is a super hero, he is a normal person at heart and he knows that. This value of his I also value because it is a reminder to be humble, and no matter what you do, you are also the same as everyone else.
Another quality that Spider-Man does unconsciously is helping people that are in need of it. Even when he's fighting his super-villains, if he sees someone in danger, he doesn't give a second thought. Usually for me if someone is in need of help I try my best to give him or her assistance.
Spider-Man is a great person, even though he isn't real. He was created to be an entertaining character, but ends up like many super heroes by showing values and morals on how to be a good guy, not one of the villains.

I agree on what you said about Spiderman and how superheroes should use their powers on "the forces of evil." -This is Korea. Hi
