Arrogant Hero

I actually love reading BEOWULF.  It always drives me crazy to read it because Beowulf drives me insane.  I get that his boasting isn't really boasting in the manner I think of when I think of the term, but Beowulf is supposed to be simply sharing the truth of his exploits.  I just find him cocky, arrogant, and I desperately want him to shut up.

Of course, I love the arrogance of Robert Downey Jr. in IRON MAN!  I LOVE that he tells the world that he IS Iron Man rather than hiding his identity like so many other superheroes do.  I'd much rather have a hero like him than Batman!!!! 

I have a lot more I could say about BEOWULF, but I just don't feel like writing it right at this moment in time.....LOL!
