William "Bill" Overbeck, a Tragic Hero- Brentley Turner

# data[].attributes.body
I'm pretty sure most people have played, Valve's zombie killing multiplayer hit Left 4 Dead, but I'm pretty sure most people aren't big enough nerds to tell you that one of the characters had a tragic canonical death. William Overbeck, more commonly known as Bill, is the Vietnam vet leader of Left 4 Dead's group of survivors. Over the course of the games' campaigns, the survivors become willing to do anything to save each other, but Bill does something questionable at one point in their fight for survival.

A little background. Bill was a Vietnam vet who was living in a nursing home with absolutely nothing to do. That is, until the zombie apocalypse happens. When his nursing home is invaded by zombies, he escapes, dawns a military coat, lights a cigar, loads his gun, and Heads out to fight the hordes of zombies and meet up with the other survivors Zoey, Francis, and Louis.

Here's where my intense case of the nerd shows. When Left 4 Dead's downloadable content "The Passing" came out, there was a line pf comics to go along with it which gave it more of a backstory and explained character origins. In the comics, the survivors are rescued and taken to a military facility where the zombie virus is being studied. A couple zombie explanations a plot twists later, the facility is invaded by hordes of zombies. Two soldiers and a scientist help the survivors escape to a train that they can use to escape. The horde catches up to the group, and Bill, being the leader, commands the survivors to leave them for dead, making Zoey, who he thought of as a daughter, resent him.

Bill decides to escape overseas, seeing how zombies can't swim, and they come upon their final obstacle; a giant draw bridge that makes a lot of noise to bring down. Zombies, being attracted to noise, swarm the survivors as they bring down to bridge. Just when they think they're home free, the generator powering the draw bridge shuts off.

Bill knows what Zoey thought about his decision at the facility. In Francis' words, "Bill doesn't always do the right things, but he does them for the right reasons." He would do anything to keep his friends alive. Bill had to make up for his actions at the facility. He ran to the generator and restarted it. However he was surrounded by zombies and killed. He died so that the other survivors can escape. He finally did what was right, for the right reason.

Hall of Shame: Romeo Montague by Zoe' Drohan

# data[].attributes.body
Romeo Montague was the son of Lord Montague and Lady Montague. This man is probably the most well known "tragic hero". Romeo Montague was all a round a friendly guy. Romeo was in love with the Lord Capulet, Romeo's families enemy.

Even though Romeo was a good and friendly guy, he did have a bit of a temper. When the Montague and Capulet's would fight Romeo would be the one to break up the fights, but when a Capulet killed Romeo's cousin Romeo lost his temper and accidentally killed Juliet's cousin. He was banished from his village because of the 🤬 of a Capulet. Romeo felt really bad about this because he did not intentionally 🤬 him, things just got out of hand.

Despite the fact that Juliet and Romeo couldn't be together because the rivalry between the families, the death of Juliet's cousin didn't help at all. When Romeo was banished from the village Juliet was being forced to marry another man. So she pretends to "🤬 herself" so she could run away with Romeo but Romeo didn't know that this was his plan and found Juliet knocked out and thought she was actually dead. Romeo accepts his fate that him and Juliet will never be together and were not meant to be, but he was so in love he couldn't live without her so he took his dagger and killed himself. Following Juliet to wake up and 🤬 herself as well.

To bad Romeo couldn't have maybe cried for a few minutes before ending it all because maybe, just maybe him and Juliet could have had a chance at happiness. Maybe if he wasn't so fast at making decisions.....

Hall Of Shame: Adolf Hitler(Hear me out) by Travis Benton 

# data[].attributes.body
Adolf Hitler prior to starting the second world war was a pretty popular guy, and most Germans stood behind him, when he came to power in 1933, he promised reform in Germany following world war 1, and the great depression, Hyperinflation and Famine were destroying Germany, people could not find any work at all. Hitler promised to change these things and he did, and at a fast pace too.

Hitler appointed German civilians to work as government officials, He rebuilt the German economy, Infrastructure, and the school system, he also implemented anti smoking laws to keep Germans in good health. With all the change to the country, its no supersize that the German people stood behind him, and they would stand behind him for what was coming to europe.

After world war one, European nations forced Germany to sign the Treaty of Versailles. From 1933 to 1936, Adolf Hitler had ordered to rebuild Germanys military, Surpassing the Treaties limit on 200,000 troops in germany, The germans build up an airforce called the Luftwaffle, They also built tanks that would be used in a new type of warfare called blitzkrieg.

In 1936, Adolf Hitler ordered the invasion of the Rhineland, Not looking to start a war, Winston Churchill and other European leaders used appeasement, they let hitler occupy the Rhinelands if he promised not to invade any other lands. Hitler would later go back on his word,

In 1938, Hitler would seize Austria, Being that most of Austria spoke germany, And the next year, In 1939 he would invade  Czechoslovakia, At this point, Hitler and Stalin of The Soviet Union sign a non-aggression pact, not to invade eachother, This would be apart of the downfall for hitler later

The Europeans fed up with this German aggression, They warned Adolf Hitler that if he invaded Poland, War would be immanent. On September 1st, 1939, Adolf Hitler invaded Poland, kicking off the second world war. Hitler was able to expand germanys borders far west as spain, all the way to the soviet union, in 1941, Adolf Hitler would begin an invasion on the USSR, They made it just a few miles outside of Moscow, But thanks to the resilience of the Red Army, and the grueling winter that the germans were not prepared for. The Soviets were able to push the germans back all the way to Berlin,

Adolf Hitler would Commit 🤬 with his wife Eva Braun before the soviets could capture him. This would be the end of the second world war.

A god or a human no one really thinks about this man when they think about a tragic hero. Perseus was a farmer in Greek mythology he was seen as nothing but a mere mortal. A man with nothing to offer to the except his bare hands. But really Perseus was so much more than just a farmer he was a father and a son of someone very important in ancient Greece.
Perseus is the son of the god of the skies Zeus, a very big figure in Greek mythology. Most people see Perseus as a man that didn't do anything other than the movie clash of the titans when he killed the Krakken. Everyone human who sees person as a man in a movie doesn't understand who he is and what he stood for.
Perseus was a man of honor and courage however he did have many downfalls his downfalls gave him the name of a war hero. Being that Perseus didn't come from a wealthy family he still played a very important role in the Titan war in mythology. This shows that even if you don't have money doesn't mean that you can never do anything in life.
He was also a leading cause for the Titan war angering the gods and Gaia, mother of Earth. Perseus still found himself and came out on top of the competition and saved the world from destruction. So Perseus is a figure everyone should look up to because even though things didn't go his way he still made an impact.

Hall of Shame: Mark Zuckerberg by Mr. Morris

He's the "founder" and CEO of Facebook. And while he's not exactly "royalty," this guy came from money. His mom was a psychiatrist and his dad was a dentist, he went to an exclusive private school and he went to Harvard.

His responsibility over one of the biggest American companies even started out sketchy. He worked with some guys in Harvard on the school's social media website, but soon afterwards took credit and stole the idea. That's how Facebook was born.

Right now he is in the process of falling, and hard at that, from a really bad judgement call. He's accused of selling Facebook users private data to a company called Cambridge Analytica, who used a bunch of that info to fix and tweak elections all over the world. He has been forced to testify in front of Congress twice now.

He seems to accept responsibility by going in front of Congress, but his answers are pretty week. He's had to explain how they'll delete toxic and fake accounts, how they'll weed-out fake news, and especially how they'll watch for apps that act like viruses.

All in all, I'm hoping for an amazing end to this man. Maybe he'll be exiled like Oedipus or 🤬 himself like Romeo, but I can't wait for the tabloids when it happens.

Hall of Shame: Steve Jobs by Aaron Yarborough

Everyone knows who Steve Jobs is since he was the creator of Apple, along with his friend Steve Wozniak. He was born into a mediocre family, and grew up admiring electronics in his early years. One day he and his friend Steve came up with an idea to create a new company. This company was conveniently called Apple Computers.

After the company took off, everyone thought Apple was going to be the next new thing, and it would become a huge tech giant, which is ended up doing. But his power started getting to his head when all that money started rolling in, and he ended up kicking his friend Woz off to the curb. He wanted his way so badly in the company, his own company fired him.

After some time he returned to the company and started to work again. But after some very short time he became very sick and was diagnosed with cancer. He then died from that cancer around 1 year later.

Many people believed that this was the universe punishing him for his past greed and actions. He died at the very young age of 56, which is very uncommon in today's world. What many people have noticed is, Bill Gates who is the founder of Microsoft which is another huge company is still living today. Bill Gates is known for donating countless amounts of money to charities and poorer areas. So the moral of the story is, be grateful and do not be greedy.

I think Chris is the reason Justin Bieber thinks he's black and stuff. Chris did a lot of movies like "This Christmas". That was probably one of the biggest movies he did that everybody like. His music has aged over time from teen pop to adult hip hop. He's changed many peoples lives and he's changed the view of how the people see him. Chris can sing but I think if he changes the way he acts then besides sing he will be like a role model for everyone. I know Chris was involved with a church choir and other things like talent shows. Chris grew up under one of the best pop singers MJ . Chris had a hard life when he was younger. His mom was beaten and violence was always around him. Chris wanted to be able to sing any genre of music and to this day he is accomplishing that goal. Chris stays humble sometimes that's why I think he will get farther in life.

I would've never thought that money would change people but it changed trump. the reason I say money changed him is because he let that get to his head as if he was the richest man on this planet, paying off porn stars to have sex with him. buy a casino and running it off of other people but the only reason I hate him is because he use his dang money for stupid reasons. like the accident that happened before he got president.  nobody cant tell that man nothing. before he changed he was a man who cared for people and into the people who was less fortunate than him, he was in to universities and athletics. helping poor communities...... but he has a major downfall when the 21st century came in

Miley Cyrus was on the show "Hannah Montana" in her early teens as she was the star on there. By thus time she had produced a album I think and later after that show was cut she continued to produce songs. One of her most infamous songs would be "Wreaking Ball". In my opinion think she needs to be on the hall of shame because I think she went from being some sweet little girl to being half naked in a music video.

Why Edgar Allan Poe is a Tragic Hero by Luryce Hughes

# data[].attributes.body
Edgar Allan Poe was a writer, poet and critic. He is very famous for creating the horror or mystery genre. Since Edgar was 3 years old, the only mother figures he ever had past away. There is one main reason why i think he is a tragic hero.

In Edgar's life, there are a lot of twists and turns and misfortune. The reason i think that he is a hero is because he started the mystery and horror genre and personally i think that those are the best genres there are. In my opinion, if there was no horror genre then i would automatically feel like there is something missing. Horror movies now such as, IT or Halloween, are very popular. Horror genre helps make a positive effect on society and it increases economy. Poe is also a tragic hero as well as a regular hero. The reason he is a tragic hero is because he married his 13 year old cousin. Today we consider that as 🤬 because your not supposed
