Create a post in which you explain what an anti hero is. Then suggest one example of an anti hero, and explain this person's attributes that make him/her an antihero. -100 words
An anti-hero is usually a main character in a narrative or dramatic story, who is characterized by the lack of traditional hero qualities.one example of an anti-hero would be Peter Pan. He is an anti-hero for a couple of reasons. Peter Pan is likable because he helps save the lost boys from destitution, and he never wants to grow up, and we can all relate to that. However Peter Pan is still an anti-hero because he cut off Captain Hook's hand and fed it to a crocodile. Peter tries to lead Hook off the edge and into the crocodile's mouth even though Hook promises to leave Never land forever. He wants Hook dead, which isn't a very heroic thing to do

I agree that Peter Pan as an anti hero. He was a role model for the lost boys. But being so cruel and malicious to Captain Hook was the wrong thing to do.

Pan is definitely a good example. He's in a children's book, so it makes it hard to say he had bad intentions at some points. I'd like to think of him as an innocent but michievious child, but really he did have many non-heroic traits, violence being one.

Pan is a wonderful example!!!~~ I didn't remember his doing all those bad things o.o
But he was a role model(mine when i was a kid), so seeing him do all that stuff is just....this kid is messed up O.o

I do agree that Peter Pan is a good example of an anti-hero, but I do not however, think it is because of Captain Hook and cruelty. What I believe to be a better reason for Peter Pan and being an anti-hero is his selfish nature. I mean, seriously, the dude wants the woman, he wants her to stay at his place, to stay in Never Never Land, and for Wendy to watch after the kids and read him stories. Captain Hook got what he deserved. =]

i agree ila!!!!!!!!!!!! wendy is also a good example of an anti-hero because in ways she is struggling in ways to find herself. she is entirely dependent on others to show her the way, and can't ever seem to function without peter. =P
