WhO iS yOuR bAtMaN?
One person in my life that epitomizes Batman would be Leo Roth in a way, but not to the extent of Batman's extreme actions. I believe they share similar thoughts and behaviors in some ways. I consider this 12-foot tall giant a Batman-like figure because Leo stays true to his morals, even in the toughest situations. In all my life that I have known Leo, not once has he tried to hurt me intentionally. This relates to Batman when he confronted the Joker, he was about to kill him but decided that he would be the same scum as Joker, and he would lose his morality which was ultimately Joker's goal. Both of these guys are able to follow their morals as a citizen of the world even when life gives them the hardest decisions. One similar characteristic that they both show is grit. In the graphic novel, no matter the danger, Batman shows his determination and grit in his action scenes, whether it be criminals or death. This kinda reminds me of Leo because whenever he faces a challenging opponent, like in tennis he pushes through his disadvantages, zealous all the way. And that type of mindset is what I believe both people have, being able to pursue an objective despite any disadvantages or problems that arise.

From your description of Leo's ability to maintain morality, it does seem that he is very similar to Batman in that facet. Also, their levels of determination and grit seem to be very comparable as well. I liked your articulation in your blog post, especially when you described Leo as zealous and as a "12-foot tall giant." It seems Leo and Batman had a lot more in common than I ever would have thought.
ReplyDeleteYour post was hilarious, since I can tell you have a special admiration for both the Batman and Leo. There's a unique yet inconspicuous correlation between the two, as their similar moral compasses and determination connects them together. The perseverance from Batman and Leo that you mentioned only makes the connection between the two that more apparent.
ReplyDeleteI love this, I believe it is great you see Batman like characteristics in your best friend. In high school it is pretty difficult to find a good friend, so having someone by your side who has strong morals and determination is pretty great. You and Leo are the definition of friendship goals (lol), but seriously I admire the fact that you see Leo as a Batman in your life. Also, to be honest, it would be pretty cool to have Batman as a friend.
