The Empty Shadow
It had been a very long time since he’d returned, but walking up those seventeen steps he remembered what his old friend had told him those many years ago, “You see, but you do not observe. The distinction is clear.” The deep wry voice echoed like a ghost in the recesses of his mind. Finally reaching the door, his weathered hands brought the key up to the lock, but his hand shook and fumbled; dropping the key to the ground. As he cursed and bent down to pick it up, his wife approached him up the stairs. Placing one strong and yet gentle hand on his shoulder and another on his, she conveyed enough strength to him. She knew how hard a day it has been for him and how hard this was for him. Old memories, that had been put on the shelf so-to-speak, have been picked back up. She rubbed his back comfortingly as he exhaled heavily and gripped the key in momentary frustration with his own emotional turmoil. She held her hand out for the key. Looking her in the eyes, she kissed him on his cheek. “It’s okay.”

More Than the Muscle
Who doesn't find catharsis in watching power creatures exhibit their power? Comic book superheroes have illustrated how much people of all ages love to see strength exemplified. Arguably among the most popular examples is that of the Incredible, the Indestructible, the Big Mean and Big Green, Hulk. Now there's a plethora of Hulk characters. The first was so inspiring to generate a big cast of related heroes and villains. Focusing on the main Hulk, AKA Dr. Bruce Banner, it's a large simplification that he's had quite the long history.

Robert Downey Jr.’s done a brilliant job in bringing this character to life. Now.
