Never had ic books captured the media like they did sixteen years ago in 1992. One of the greatest fictional icons in modern day America died, and the nation took notice.

This was at the height of the speculator market, and quite possibly the final nail in the coffin that would see the ic industry spiral downwards for a number of years afterward.

But all things aside, The Death of Superman was something to behold. In the story, the villain Doomsday and Superman fight to the bitter end. Neither one of them will give an inch, and Doomsday doesn't seem like he can be beaten. At the close of their battle, both are left dead and laying in the middle of the street in downtown Metropolis.

3. 關(guān)于superman的英文文章

不知你想寫(xiě)**還是別的，我把我理解的都寫(xiě)上，你挑一個(gè)你想要的吧：1Superman has been around for a long time. He's been here through a World War. He's lasted seven decades and counting. So it's safe to say he's been through his share of monumental stories. But the most defining and central Superman ic had to be The Death of Superman in Superman #75 in 1992.Never had ic books captured the media like they did sixteen years ago in 1992. One of the greatest fictional icons in modern day America died, and the nation took notice. It became a media circus and QVC was doing specials hosted by Dan Jurgens selling copies left and right. This was at the height of the speculator market, and quite possibly the final nail in the coffin that would see the ic industry spiral downwards for a number of years afterward.But all things aside, The Death of Superman was something to behold. In the story, the villain Doomsday and Superman fight to the bitter end. Neither one of them will give an inch, and Doomsday doesn't seem like he can be beaten. At the close of their battle, both are left dead and laying in the middle of the street in downtown Metropolis.The powerful imagery of Superman laying battered, bloody and defeated in the arms of Lois Lane, who his holding his head up is phenomenal. Then, as the page is unfolded, Superman's head drops and the tears begin to flow. It had a very spiritual connotation relating it somewhat to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ on the cross in the way the death was depicted.Many praised the story, while many saw it as a cheap promotional ploy. It was actually both, and for a while it succeeded as both. And, as everyone knows, Superman sales hadn't been great and people were bored with the character. So mixing it up like this did something special for the Man of Steel - it got people interested.Following the death of Superman ic was a story line called Reign of the Supermen in which four new Supermen came on the scene, each claiming to be the real Superman. One was Superboy, who we would later discover was a clone of both Superman and Lex Luthor. Another was John Henry Irons, who later became known as Steel. One was thought to be the true Superman, but turned out to be a Cyb. And the last was The Eradicator, who ended up being a part of the original Superman's soul, but without the balance humanity had given him.Later, as planned and expected, the true Superman rose from the grave sporting a new hairdo and donning a new black costume for a while.Whether the story is viewed as a cheap ploy or a history changing mega story, the fact is that The Death of Superman ic was one hot ic.2We all know the story. A traveler from another pla crash lands on earth, is raised by a farmer and his wife, then grows up to be the greatest hero that ever lived. He possesses powers the likes the world has never seen, and because of his modest, honest upbringing, he possesses the traits we all strive for. He's nearly perfect in every way.The most proliferate of all DC Comic Heros, Superman stands for all the good things in life: truth, justice, freedom, kindness, wisdom, strength, etc. And yet, it's because of these very traits that his popularity has waned from time to time, and the readership of his books, for a long time, steadily declined. People couldn't relate to him in the least, and could certainly never live up to him. And that turned people off.Sure, Clark Kent, the alter ego of the Man of Steel, is supposed to be the one people can relate to. He is the mild-mannered, polite, bumbling everyman that provides the perfect disguise for the Kryptonian superhero. Except that Clark Kent is a boy scout, whose values and morals are every bit as stout as Superman's himself. And thus, it makes it hard to relate to and live up to even being Clark Kent!The core of every Superman story used to be Superman swooping in to save the day from immoral villains and ruffians. Even Lex Luthor was the epitome of evil incarnate throughout the Superman mythos. But now, and for a while, Luthor has bee more than just evil. He has bee a villain with a purpose, and a purpose that makes sense! His isted views and outlook on things gained him the presidency of the United States in the DC Universe for a time, which caused a great deal of conflict for Superman, who knew how evil Lex truly was.In recent years, Superman has evolved somewhat, and has shown his weaknesses, and I'm not talking about vulnerability. In an attempt to make Superman more vulnerable and relatable, DC took a chance by challenging his thinking when 。

5. 以“超人”為話(huà)題的作文

假如我是一位令人羨慕的超人，我會(huì )怎么做呢？我會(huì )保衛地球，消滅壞人。

記得有一次晚上，爸爸幫我買(mǎi)了一盤(pán)超人碟片，我高興得喜出望外，一手接過(guò)爸爸手中的碟片，津津有味地看了起來(lái)。直到傍晚時(shí)分，要睡覺(jué)的時(shí)候都依依難舍。睡覺(jué)時(shí)我怎么都睡不著(zhù)，于是我開(kāi)始數起羊來(lái)：一，二，三，四，五……很快，我在迷迷糊糊中睡著(zhù)了。當我醒來(lái)時(shí)，我發(fā)現自己成為超人了。

我飛快地跑下樓梯，發(fā)現爸爸媽媽已經(jīng)在那里等我了。我對爸爸說(shuō)：“你看，我成為超人了?！薄皠e胡鬧了，孩子，快下來(lái)吃早飯吧！”爸爸說(shuō)，我說(shuō)：“真的，我真的成為超人了，不信，你可以考考我?！卑职终f(shuō)：“好啊，有本事的話(huà)，你就把我們隔壁的一輛汽車(chē)抬起來(lái)，怎么樣？”我自信地說(shuō)：“好！沒(méi)問(wèn)題，我這就讓你看看我的本領(lǐng)有多大！”話(huà)音剛落，我就一個(gè)箭步?jīng)_出門(mén)外，把爸爸剛才指的那輛汽車(chē)舉了起來(lái)，邊舉邊說(shuō)：“你看，我的力氣有多大！”爸爸見(jiàn)了大吃一驚：“孩子，你真的成為超人了，我真為你感到自豪?！蔽衣?tīng)了，心里樂(lè )滋滋的，急忙跑向花園想再來(lái)炫耀一番。

突然，我聽(tīng)見(jiàn)一個(gè)可怕的聲音：“小鬼，不要亂動(dòng)，不然我一**斃了你！”為了弄清事情的經(jīng)過(guò)，我打算過(guò)去看一看。于是，我朝著(zhù)聲音的地方走去。??！原來(lái)是一個(gè)強盜在偷東西，卻被一個(gè)小孩看見(jiàn)了這一幕，想去報警，沒(méi)料到卻被強盜發(fā)現了，想把他除掉。我一看事情緊急，我呼地一聲飛了過(guò)去，對強盜大聲說(shuō)：“你竟然敢以大欺小，看我怎么教訓你?！庇谑俏沂褂昧硕ㄉ硇g(shù)把他們都定住了，再用繩子把他們捆住，這樣即使定身術(shù)失效后他們也逃不了了。我將強盜扔到警局門(mén)口，立刻帶著(zhù)這個(gè)小孩離開(kāi)了。

7. 用“what if you were superman"作一篇英文作文

A man who believes he is Superman but cannot use his powers because of a bit of Kryptonite in his head may sound like a great premise for a edy. But in the hands of the Koreans, you can be sure that there will be a fair bit of drama thrown into the mix. And in many cases, this often means an overly maudlin and sentimental affair. For this latest Gianna Jun starrer however, it is surprisingly for the better. Because contrary to what you would expect, If I Were Superman really takes off more as a drama, than as a edy. After a o-year hiatus, the breakout star of “My Sassy Girl” returns as a frustrated television producer at a *** all production pany. Gianna Jun, or Jun Ji-hyun as she is more popularly known in Korea, plays Song Soo-jung, who finds herself churning out trivial human interest stories with little depth. What's more, her pany owes her three months worth of wages. Little wonder why she struts around with a scowl on her face.To make it worse, she is robbed one day while waiting for the subway. As fate would have it, her almost futile attempt at chasing the robber is rescued by a stranger dressed in a Hawaiian shirt. This stranger calls himself Superman, and immediately her news instincts prompt her to investigate the origins of this person. Superman turns out to be quite the good Samaritan, going around the city helping anyone in need, from old ladies with a heavy load to schoolgirls harassed by a flasher. Of course, this off-kilter gentleman with his range of quirky to downright baffling habits is not as simple as he seems. And it is in learning about “Superman” that the film really begins to find its footing, eventually also impressing with a strong social message that will stay with you long after the credits roll. But the trouble is, the film takes an hour to get there, and indeed it is quite a drawn out hour. The antics of “Superman” are amusing to behold at the start, what if him standing on his hands because he claims that he is pushing the earth away from the sun as the polar caps are melting. But Jung gets carried away and inserts many such instances of his idiosyncrasies which can get annoying to watch after some time. Luckily, Hwang Jung-min's portrayal of Superman is a delight to watch. He puts in a convincing performance as a man transformed by the events of his life to so adamantly believe that he is the hero in the red cape. Unfortunately, Gianna Jun isn't given much to do here. Most of the time, she is left watching in bewilderment as Superman goes about his antics. Though her detachment arguably fits her role as a reporter, one wishes that it were more developed in the movie.What is perhaps the most interesting aspect of this movie is how writer-director Jung Yoon-chul uses this movie as an examination of social milieu and our perennial fascination with superheroes. This he does so from the perspective of a person who regresses to his childhood to assume the identity of a superhero and do what superheroes do best- lend a helping hand to those in need- something as mortals we find so hard to do these days. Though it may bill itself as a edy, If I Were Superman is only occasionally so. Instead, it is much more adept at being a social mentary and is best appreciated as such. Be warned: you gotta have patience to sit through some rather unfunny bits before you get to the meatier parts. Pity though, because this movie actually has worth, but it ends up being just a middling affair.。

Tom And Jerry（湯姆和杰瑞，及貓和老鼠）Tom and Jerry is a series of animated theatrical shorts created by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer that centered on a never-ending rivalry beeen a housecat (Tom) and a mouse (Jerry) whose chases and battles often involved ic violence. Hanna and Barbera ultimately wrote and directed one hundred and fourteen Tom and Jerry cartoons at the MGM cartoon studio in Hollywood, California beeen 1940 and 1957, when the animation unit was closed. The original series is notable for having won the Academy Awards for Best Short Subject (Cartoons) seven times, tying it with Walt Disney's Silly Symphonies as the most-awarded theatrical animated series.

Beginning in 1960, in addition to the originals MGM had new shorts produced by Rembrandt Films, led by Gene Deitch in Eastern Europe. Production of Tom and Jerry shorts returned to Hollywood under Chuck Jones's Sib-Tower 12 Productions in 1963; this series lasted until 1967, making it a total of 161 shorts. The cat and mouse stars later resurfaced in television cartoons produced by Hanna-Barbera and Filmation Studios during the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s, a feature film, Tom and Jerry: The Movie, in 1992 and released domestically in 1993 and in 2000, their first TV special, Tom and Jerry in: The Mansion Cat for Cartoon Neork.

Today, Time Warner (via its Turner Entertainment division) owns the rights to Tom and Jerry, and also produced the series, Tom and Jerry Tales for The CW's Saturday morning "The CW4Kids" lineup, as well as the recent Tom and Jerry short, The KarateGuard, in 2005 and a string of Tom and Jerry direct-to-video films.
