From Wonder Woman to Spirited Away: what really makes a superhero?

| 0 comments

Our ‘long read’ for Friday is this thought-provoking Guardian article by Australian crime writer, J.M. Green: From Wonder Woman to Spirited Away: what really makes a superhero?  “Hollywood firmly believes in superheroes who fulfil male adolescent fantasies of aggression and violence, but there are other ways to be a hero.”

Do you agree? How would you define heroism in our complex, modern world?
