Real Life Issues (Infinite Crisis)

One of the real life issues that is apparent in Infinite Crisis is one that happens inside of us. The issue is that whenever we do something that is preposterous, antagonizing, or embarrassing, we as humans have a tendency to dwell in the past. For example, maybe you released feelings of anger in public and then you regret the decision thinking something like "No, I didn't mean to do that! I'm not a bad person! I wish I could go back and change what happened!"

In events prior to Infinite Crisis, Wonder Woman had to kill a man because he was controlling Superman's mind. The man was manipulating Superman into becoming a killer. Wonder Woman regretted the time that she had to kill him. It would always bother her and haunt her in days to come. Later in the story, however, Wonder Woman learns that you must not focus on what has already happened, but what lies ahead. Greg Cox, the author of this book, is saying that you should not dwell in the past.

The Best Thing About My Book (Infinite Crisis)

Reading a book such as Infinite Crisis is great because of the fact that not only it has a good story and shows some of my favorite heroes.  It also is a great read for wild and extreme action sequences. You'll have superheroes brawling with giant figures and causing mass chaos in the area. Also, the action sequences aren't like the ones that you saw on TV as a kid. They won't be afraid to show bloodshed, body parts, and even death. The fight scenes are well thought out and not just superheroes and villains throwing punches all over the place. There's great schemes and strategies. You never know when a massive battle will just jump right out at you. It won't do it literally of course. If a book did that, then the author would be covered in lawsuits. Anyway, you get the point. This book has amazing and spectacular combat. What about your book? What's the best thing about it?

A Symbol for a Character (Infinite Crisis)

For the character known as Brother Eye in my book, a good symbol for it would be a hawk. Brother Eye is a machine programmed by Batman to see where there is trouble and send OMAC soldiers to deal with the criminal. However, Brother Eye is ruthless. It would kill innocent people in order to get to the actual criminal. Also, Wonder Woman had to kill someone in order to free Superman from hypnosis which made him a killer. Because of Wonder Woman killing that man, the OMACs attacked the whole island of Themyscira. Brother Eye is like a hawk because he watches the Earth closely for criminals. A hawk watches the ground closely for its prey. And both Brother Eye and the hawk are ruthless to the criminals/prey.

The Worst Thing About My Book (Infinite Crisis)

My book, Infinite Crisis, is an interesting book. But one thing about it makes me confused as to why the author included this in his book. My book will always switch topics and settings and it seems all over the place and a bit messy. One minute, the story might be in Atlantis talking about Spectre attacking it, while the next moment it goes to a completely unrelated moment in Themyscira where they have to defend it from the OMACs. To those not reading the book, it sounds a bit crazy. It's as if they put multiple stories into one book. I know that in the end it will probably connect it all together, but now, it just seems all over the place. I would like it to explain what's going on and why they are jumping from place to place so often. The book isn't bad. However, I would not prefer the randomness.

Connections (Infinite Crisis)

One thing that be connected in the real world is the security robots. These security robots are used to enforce the law and bring criminals to justice. However, these robots end up using extreme tactics in order to achieve their mission. When finding a criminal, they were searching in an alley. They asked an old man where he was keeping a criminal and the robots beat him. The eventually found the villian and killed him. This can be connected to our world because the government can get paranoid. They can take extreme measures in order to keep security. They put security cameras in houses, they can harm innocent protestors, and they can arrest you for the slightest hint that you may be a criminal.

Reason for Reading (Infinite Crisis)

My independent reading book for this trimester is Infinite Crisis by Greg Cox. I chose this book because it is about the Justice League. It is a 371 page read with great vocabulary that you can find in the story. This book is full of action and some of the best superheroes around. In the book, the Justice League has lost some of its trust from the people on Earth. Wonder Woman had to snap someone's neck because he had control over Superman. This seems like a very interesting plot and something definitely unlike any other superhero movie or comic that I have seen before. I want to see how the book plays out and how this situation is finally resolved. What about a book makes you interested in reading it?

Fahrenheit 451 (Predictions)

In my book, I predict that Guy Montag will try to rebel against the dystopian government that rules over the society that he lives in. The books that he is keeping secret will inspire him to rebel against the government. Judging by the absolute control over the society, they probably have every other citizen convinced that the government is fine how it is. Because of this, Guy lacks support from the other people. Which leads to my prediction that Guy will die in the attempt to overthrow the government. I also believe that Mildred will play a role in Guy's demise. She doesn't show any love or deep feelings for Guy. Also, she is skeptical and a bit scared of the idea of Guy reading. This might cause her to break down and give Guy away to the government. The society will remain unchanged for a long period of time. What about you? What do you think will happen to Guy and the society that he lives in?
