The Spandex costume means that the cartoon images can display the muscles etc and therefore imply the character's strength. This isn't an animated media, remember (at least not at first).
If you get into your Spider-Man (hyphen pls ppl), for example, then you'll realise he's got a difficult and convoluted life. One min he's fighting the Green Goblin, the NEXT, he's battling to sell photos to make rent, dealing with his Aunt who'd had a heart attack, or overcoming his grief as his girlfriend is murdered. The stories, Spider-Man at least, were NOT just about him web-slinging his way around New York. Many had a meaningful undertone that, for me as a child, taught me many 'right from wrong' issues. He could have turned to crime to pay his rent, but chose morals over ease. 'With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility'. A line from Spider-Man, but surely one that many figures in positions of power should listen to.
Many people don't realise that much of Charles Dickens work was actually written as serialised 'eposides' for newspapers and compiled into books later. Books that we, nowadays, consider to be literary classics.
Other than the 'underpants', is there any difference?
Your Worry Factor is 36% You worry a little, but you usually don't go overboard. You know it's good to recognize your fears, as long as you let go of them. So whenever you start to worry too much, just take a deep breath and relax. You're not the worrying kind - and there's no reason to start.
An operation about 6 years back went VERY wrong when they overdid the anesthesia. I was 5 hours in recovery and they called my then GF to come and say 'goodbye'. All night things were bad and, because it was a private hospital and I'd only paid up front for the 1 day, I was turfed out the following morning. Even tho I went into anaphylactic shock in the elevator, I was bundled into the back of my car.
Being driven home, I was convinced I was going to die..
My thoughts were actually this: I was worried about my GF, because we were in a strange city, about 2 hrs from home, so I didn't want her to know I 'was dying'. I felt she'd cope better with the situation when she arrived home. At least she'd be in familiar surroundings and with people she knew nearby, rather than stuck in a layby somewhere scared to death. I closed my eyes and 'waited'...
It certainly changed my life along with my perception of people and my time on this earth.
