Read each textbook excerpt and then answer the questions that follow.
Comic books have spawned several of the most well-known fictional characters ever developed. Superman, Batman, and Spiderman are perhaps the strongest characters of this genre. They have been developed into television shows, movies, books, video games, and other forms that survive each generation. Why do they last? There may be several reasons for their continuing popularity: First, they always encounter obstacles, yet always catch the bad guy or right the wrong, reinforcing to us that success is possible although never easy (even with super powers or gadgets) . Second, they are all incorruptible, never yielding to temptations for money or power-helping us see an ideal often lost in daily news stories of human greed and corruption. Third, they give us hope that crime can be stopped if everyone had the vigilance and perseverance of these superheroes. Fourth, the line between good and evil is sharply drawn in fiction, while in the real world the lines are often fuzzy at best, making comic book heroes a way to help clearly distinguish between the two. Fifth, they succeed despite the odds being stacked against them in the crime-ridden Metropolis, Gotham, and New York depicted in the comics, movies, and games.
