Many people consider heroes as someone with superhuman abilities, or as someone who wears a cape with tights and saves people from the most berserk situations. But as award winning author Jodi Picoult once said, “Heroes didn’t leap tall buildings or stop bullets with an outstretched hand; they didn't wear boots and capes.

Heroes: Grappling With Power With the proliferation of supernatural television shows and movies, I expected Heroes to be more of the same. It is not. Heroes offers a unique twist on the classic superhero tale through its wide variety of characters, its concise plot, its special effects, and its wise use of tone. Mohinder Suresh, who functions as the series’ narrator, teaches genetic theory in a small, stuffy classroom to bored college students in India. As the class ends, a colleague pulls Mohinder

Everyday, society misconceives identities. In the eyes of Ralph Waldo Emerson, “A hero is no braver than any ordinary man, but he is braver five minutes longer.” Heroism, in Emerson’s perspective, is the ability to stand out for longer, and to endure hardships for greater durations.
