Kierkegaard once told a story that Pope Benedict XVI recounted in his "Introduction to Christianity": The circus leader in a town found that a mountain fire was about to burn, and he sent A clown who had already dressed up went to notify the people who were watching the theater, but the more anxious the clown told people, the happier they were, laughed and even applauded, thinking that his performance was great. In the end, the fire hit the town and swallowed everything. The status of comics in the United States is similar to that of this dynasty. It has always been regarded as children's stories rather than serious literature. On the surface, adults are serious about telling children about truth, goodness, beauty, and evil, but they don't take it seriously. Politicians are doing the same thing to the people. This work is not only in the image of a comic, but also a traditional heroic comic. Each hero in it, dressed in strange clothes and doing weird things, is also like a group of clowns with Cosoplay's core American values; the loss, anger, and anger of the clowns. Sadness and decadence are only part of their performance. "It must have nothing to do with what they represent." Although its topic is extremely heavy and serious, it is easy to be laughed at. A few sufficiently sensitive adults understand the author's intentions. But I feel a deeper level of powerlessness. Individuals who know how to live always pretend to be deaf about their own sad fate, but make irresponsible remarks about the lives of others. Maybe they are sober in their hearts, but how can they waste their short and meaningless lives without this? The laughter says that everything is a joke; the doctor treats human struggles as a joke; Rosha tells the joke that the clown sees a psychologist because of depression; Laurie says that his life is a joke; the savvy says that a childish hero is a little kid Doctrine is a joke; Daniel said to him at the end: You are the real joke... But when you find that the fire has surrounded the theater and you happen to be sitting in it, can you laugh?
