Topic: How come there are never any larger than life heroes?

How come nobody has ever desired to
go the distance and do something greater than themselves and life itself? We've all have heroes in history, but even during their time, they were merely just regular people. Even villains such as Adolf Hitler was merely just a world leader who committed atrocities. No different than people of today voicing their concerns over Joseph Kony. Who will be today's Hitler in decades to come? How come larger than life heroes only exists within the pages of fiction and not real life? I presume this is due to our natural instinct to avoid dangers and challenges that threaten our individual survival. Yet nowadays we still have thrill seekers who like to challenge death itself by engaging in activities that could go wrong and cost them their lives. It makes me wonder how come heroes like the ones from comic books, mythology, and other fictitious tales don't exist in real life. I suppose Jesus Christ could be considered such a hero, but even he was merely a regular person on Earth. He was a simple carpenter according to the writings of the bible. Yet larger than life heroes are no in void in reality.

Because comic book superheroes are for cucks with their bullshit "no killing" mantras that were specifically designed for children so that they got used to
a. Not delivering natural justice which is to kill wrongdoers and remove them from the genepool and
b. Get them used to the idea that justice could only be dished out by some SUPERhero(i.e. someone other than themselves like the state)
It's basically a dependency mechanism that the state put in place a long time ago. Superman is the prime example. Watchmen basically called out all comic books on this.
In any case the fact that cucks love their strong men in spandex worked out for hollyjew and the nwo as it fits perfectly in with the modern day agenda to turn men homosexual to cull the rapidly increasing populations but thats abother story.
To sum up, you ask why there are no heroes even with our supposed love affair with comics welk the reason is that comic books were made to brainwash kids into thinking justice is done by something that is much larger than them(i.e. superheroes that represented the state)

@OP
> even he was just a regular person on the earth
So are any other larger than life 'heroes', the point is their ability
seems supernatural... which ofc doesn't mean it is.
Not sure what you're asking beyond why isn't there anyone who impresses you. Dunno, m8. Maybe you're jaded.

@512,125 (B)
I was asking about more than just comic books. This is seen in action movies a lot. This could even be seen in religion a lot too even though they seem to go about it more modestly.
Also, the U.S. government really has the time or the tax dollars to spend on making comic books, really?
@previous (C)
I'm not too sure myself to be quite honest. I guess I'm mostly interested in why we tend to create these characters with motives and responsibilities that are greater than ourselves. Most of our religions involve beings that are quite well above us. It seems like this habit makes us neglect real life heroes such as doctors, lawyers, police officers, firefighters, and to some extent those serving in the military. Good point about superheroes being regular people with abilities seen as supernatural, by the way.
