Yesterday night I watched the history of comic book superheroes. You can find the link to youtube (HERE)
It was pretty interesting regarding the fact that I as a child do love cartoons and I guess everybody does in their lifetime even in their adulthood.
Of course my favourite characters were Barbie, Ariel the mermaid and Nemo. Maybe because I am a girl so I don't really like superheros that mainly features men.
But, I did have a lingering crush on Superman and later the Superboy in Smallville.
Knowing much about the history of the superheroes in the comic books did of course do wonder to my preconceived belief. The reason why it existed in the first place made me understand why it became popular and why so many people able to relate and cheered for the superheroes.
I loved the fact, it did boost the moral support of some people in the past who did need it at the time when oppression was very much going on in the society.
Nowadays we can see alot of the comic book superheroes turning into a characters that comes alive on big screen. Fantastic four and X-Men were two of comic superheroes who had been on screen lately. Coming up are Captain America and probably the second sequel of GI Joe. I can see why the movies on superheroes did well on cinema. It is because people grew up loving the comic characters on television. For example I remember myself growing up watching GI Joe and so I do wanted to see how it would be adapted on movies.
In Malaysia, The comic book that I often browsed through when I was a little girl were Gila-gila and Ujang. I loved the Characters of Joyah and Ujang. They were not superheroes but a funny comic characters who could make some people laugh.I remember how my older brother burst out in laughter reading it while I was clueless but nevertheless restless to find the source that tickled his funny bone. No, I could not understand it and never did...LOL..:) Maybe that explained why I dropped the comic book once it was not within my sight anymore.
On a second thought maybe just to reminisce yesterday, I would buy or go look for it at the bookstores one of these days. That is if it still exist...:)
Have a fun time watching superheroes!!! I am waiting for Captain America to be aired...Cant hardly wait...^_^
