Recently, I watched a superhero movie titled Blue Beetle. It was about a scarab that got to choose a high school graduate, and then it gradually started to take control of him, and he developed a symbiotic relationship with it.
I love the character's personality so much. It's so strong. It has a defensive strategy and is somewhat strong as well. If I were to choose to become a fictional character, then I might choose it.
The reason why I don't want to be like other fictional characters is that most of them are specialized in one aspect or the other. Just like Superman, he has his strength in flying, and he is also strong. Spider-Man has his strength in his webs, Iron Man has his strength in the Iron Man shield, and so many others, too.
They can actually be of great rescue to those in their environment, and the villains they are fighting are just of their kind. I just can't imagine what it would be like if Superman had to fight with some kind of African witch or wizard. 😂.
It's either way. Maybe Superman will beat the hell out of them, as they might appear weak to him, or Superman will find a way to run for his life because he might not even get to understand what his next step should be.
There are no such things as superheroes in Nigeria, and I know it is kind of funny that if there were, then it might just be a local one with less or no sci-fi power.
### An instance where I got kidnapped, who am I calling to the rescue?
Blue Beetle, with its super strength, will surely do well to come to my aid. It has a lot of natural abilities, can fly, fight, and shield, and also has the latest sci-fi update embedded in it, which is Artificial intelligence.
With this AI detection, I am sure it can navigate my whereabouts and actual location, even if in the deepest forest, and then it can come for me. The protective shield is one other factor that will put my mind at peace.
I have watched scenes where the blue beetle could survive shots and even bomb attacks, so it should also be safe around it.
I know this is all imagination, and the world of fiction is surely different from that of the real world. But notwithstanding, there can be superheroes too.
I also like Wakanda Forever, that’s the black panther, this is because it still remains one of the black superheroes that have ever emerged. And as for villains, I don't think there is any villain I will seek help from.
I just hope that there are many of these superheroes in the real world, just the way I felt to become one as a child. The zeal to help and save lives is somewhat emulating.
