"LALALAaaaaaa, boring." He wasn't an avid reader of Batman, and never would be. So give him a BREAK if he didn't know each villain's full name and address and postcode and, ugh. The first year fake-yawned throughout Oakey's long and boring response to the question.

"Marvel comics are better."

OHYEA. Spiderman was a real hero. Or Thor. Or Black Widow. Hehehe, Theodore liaaaaaaked her.

Batman is NOT lame! Oakey blurted out! Batman is AMAZING, and he has tons more COOLER antagonists than the Joker! Like, BANE, or or Ra's Al Ghul, or Killer Croc, oooor Mr. Freeze and TWO-FACE, oh there was also Deadshot, Clayface, and Poison Ivy! Even Scarecrow and The Riddler! These were all villains ten times as cool as The Joker.

Seeing as he now had to go along with his reply to Professor Cerulean's question, and since the Lame-O Batman hater didn't give a proper summery of Batman aka Detective Comics, Oakey would do so... Taking a breather and taking a stick form the basket as it passed it by Oakey rephrased his response. What I mean is that Batman was character in a comic book called Detective Comics, written by Bob Kane in 1939. The Caped Crusader first came to be when his parents were killed by a mugger late one night. He witnessed their deaths and vowed revenge on the criminals of Gotham City his home town Was that a good enough summery. Batman deserved a better response than what wimpy Theodore gave. He has had thousands of antagonist's since his creation as I mentioned before.

He glared at Theodore for the gruesome insult he payed to the Dark Knight. He was way better than the Avengers anyways.

Good guys... bad guys... Easy peasy.

Theodore knew all about this cos he was an epic comic reader. Maybe he should mention that? But he did kinda feel a bit lame about it. Nobody really read comics these days. Apart from his friend, Alec, which was one of the few reasons that made him COOL, might I add.

So... comics orrrrr movie?

Nah, he'd stick with a movie.

"Like... Batman and the Joker?" Good guy and bad guy. Done. "Batman is this big guy with a silly costume and a silly car, who is a really lame superhero." He wouldn't know much cos he hadn't ACTUALLY seen the movie. Because it was stupid. But he had read a few Batman comics. And was not impressed.

"But the Joker is coooooool, even though he's a bad guy. I dunno if he wears make up, though. Or if that's just his natural face...." He trailed off.

Huh? What was the question?

He picked up a stick from the basket as soon as it reached him.


Gemma wasn't sure what to do with the superhero and villain battle going on in her classroom. On one hand, she was trying to keep herself from laughing at their passion for their opinions. It reminded her of her little brother. His favorite superhero was Iron Man, but that was before he disappeared so many years ago. She put a little smile on her face remembering him playing with his toy Iron Man and then she focused back in on the two fighting. She decided to just try to squash it nicely.

She stepped forward with a smile and held up her hands, "Now boys, we are all allowed to have our own opinions and that means that no one's is wrong....However, since I am the professor in here, that means that whatever I say goes..." she said with a little giggle and a wink at the two boys, "So, that means whichever superhero protagonist and villain antagonist that I choose wins... she said playfully. "And my vote goes for Iron Man and Doomsday..." she said waiting for them to even try to respond but then she figured she'd throw in one more little tid bit, "And yes I realize that one is Marvel and the other is DC, but remember I say which is the best so this should end this argument..." she said the last with a smile but with a little bit harsher tone...not mean but firm...yep she could be feisty and she didn't see a problem with showing her nerdy comic book side.

She glanced back at the class with a smile, "So back to our question...Anyone else want to give more examples of an Antagonist and Protagonist from a movie, book, or story?"

OOC: Okay, the lesson has started so all conversations should be squashed. Do not announce your charrie coming in late or points will be deducted from your house.

Feel free to catch up with the lesson at any point by putting Catching Up in the title of your post.

Please remember to raise your hand and try not to repeat others’ answers. Remember that Gemma is watching.
