Os heróis míticos não morrem: reciclam-se através das eras. Nesta comunicação, pretendo demonstrar que o Super-Homem possui qualidades e fragilidades como os protagonistas da mitologia grega. Examino os seguintes aspetos: linhagem, sabedoria, superpoderes, guerra, amor e vulnerabilidade. Como exemplos, recorro a mitos, lendas, revistas da banda desenhada, filmes e séries. Substancio a minha investigação com ensaios de diversos mitólogos, antropólogos e guionistas de bandas desenhadas.
