android hailing from Colu.

various Superman stories; but they almost always begin on the planet
Colu. Many recent versions of his story, however, have given him an

REFLECTIONS
Yatindra: A very fun superhero. Almost
everyone should know this Man
Man. THE
GREAT SUPERMAN. Superman was part of
my growing
i up age. I LOVE HIM!
Doing
g this project
p j
was kind of easy
y for me,
because I read comics and I watch
superheroes a lot and I can give points and
details to make this project better.
REFLECTIONS
Grace: First of all, this project was
somewhat difficult for me.
me I do not like
fictitious type of things. Realistic types of
movies
i is
i what
h t I prefer,
f
b
butt th
then I need
d tto
do this project.
j
Also, by doing this project,
j
I learned how superman works, though I’m
not that interested,
nterested, what h
hiss strengths
and weaknesses are, and a lot more.
REFLECTIONS
Jessica: This guy is just the best Superhero.
It reminded me of my childhood life.
life I
used to watch his movies, shows in TV, I
even thought
th
ht he
h was real!
l! This
Thi project
j t was
fun as well. It reminds us what we may
have forgotten. All those times that we
spent on these people, admiring
adm r ng them. But
superheroes shouldn’t be all very fictional,
I remember my first superhero was my
dad. He’s just awesome!
