Comic Book Heroes

Safety is never more than a glance away

It’s a bird; it’s a plane, it’s superhero posters. Since the beginning of time man has struggled to thwart the powers of evil. The battle is never an easy one and from time to time we have been forced to seek the abilities of those more extraordinary than ourselves. Known for intense battles against their arch enemies; superheroes and posters depicting them have long been a part of our culture. Posters showing: Superman blasting off into space, and Batman posters (one of the more Goth superheroes we know and love) that show our champion tracking down and preventing the sinister plans of the likes of Joker, and the Riddler from reaching fruition are encased in the annals of our imagination.

Childhood champions still with us today

From a young age we sought the solace found in the stories of these superheros. We dreamt endlessly about the speed with which they would travel to our aide if they were needed. Spiderman posters depicting the web slinger flying at breakneck speed through downtown on the end of a large web, or fantastic four posters portraying the four locked in near deadly combat with their arch nemesis Victor Van Damme (otherwise known as Dr. Doom). Now these icons can grace the walls of any home. One look can give us the strength, courage and conviction needed to take on the pressures of our everyday lives. With items such as:

• Wolverine posters
• Captain america posters
• Hulk posters
• X-men posters
• Avengers posters
• Daredevil posters

we are able to not only remember the landmark encounters they go through to protect all of mankind, but we are also given a glimpse into the personal struggles that they themselves deal with everyday. Loss of senses, the beast within, a proud nation in need of a moral boost in a time of great sorrow; all are motivation behind the creation of these legendary characters. Hold the torch high and take on the mantle of bravery. Be a beacon of goodness to others in your everyday life. Before you leave everyday, look at your poster knowing “you too can help to save the world.”
