Luke Skywalker is an example of an epic hero monomyth because he follows the steps in a hero cycle. For example, he had a normal life on the farm bored with it for almost his entire teenage life (status quo).He then bought two droids which led him of receiving a message from princess asking obi-wan Kenobi for help.

My hero also uses similar hero cycle steps Luke Skywalker uses in the epic hero monomyth. Spiderman wan a normal kid in school, although he was unpopular didn’t have super powers or anything. One day they went on a field trip to a science company where they experiment and do a lot of science stuff. While they were on the trip a spider bit him and everything changed. He got home feeling weird and passed out in bed. The next day he woke up and was feeling energetic, happy, and could see without his glasses. He went to school and could hear what everyone was talking about. Trouble found him, was able to humiliate a football player and was surprised himself. He was able to teach himself how to use his powers and controlled it. He liked a girl but was too shy to ask her out because he had no money and she was dating a kid who was rich and had a super-fast car. So he came up with an idea to buy a car and get the girl, he had no money. He asked his uncle to but he refused. He then signed up for a wresting competition to save up money to buy the car. One day he and his uncle went somewhere, he got out of the car and saw someone torturing his uncle. Instead of helping him he refused to because he didn’t buy the car he wanted. It led to his uncle’s death, he then felt the guilt how he could have help him to avoid his death. He then decided to become a super hero in New York City to save the people and revenge his uncle’s death. Trouble found Spiderman when his professor was doing an experiment; him and a machine he built to control them using his mind. Suddenly it went wrong it turned out to be machine controlling him. It then made him do some criminal things and led to a war between him and Spiderman. Spiderman was able to defeat him and save the people of New York City. It was that, that caught the eye of the people and Spiderman made his name in New York. Spiderman was able to get the girls, but was only in love with the girl he liked in high school.
Both of them are a great examples of an epic hero monomyth because of how it follow the steps in the cycle. Both of them are good role moles but Spiderman would a good role mole because of how he turns into something big to help people. Spiderman didn’t get help from people unlike Luke Skywalker he uses himself to help himself out throughout his journey. Had to do something without anyone telling him what to do right and wrong.

In  Conclusion both of these make a great example of an epic hero monomthy.They may have some differences on how they began their journey and ended it.They share a similar characterizes like how it began fro them from the Status Quo,Call to                                   adventure,assistance,departure,trials,approach,crisis,treasure,result,return,new life, and resolution.
