EP26: The Avenger

Think of all the Comic Book heroes you know.There’s Batman, Superman, Wonderwoman, Storm and Captain Marvel for examples.These’s are all fictional characters.No basis in reality.No fact behind the fiction.They are just stories for children, young adults and those who are lucky enough to hold onto elements of imagination as they grow older and take on the worlds responsibilities.But what if this wasn’t always true.What if one of the hero’s sketched onto cheap paper, who’s face was first crafted on a series of scribbles drawn on the back of a beer mat during a drunken discussion had a story so dramatic, elaborate and shocking that it is easier to dampen the tale by placing it in the fiction isles.Would you believe the stories?Would you prefer the undliuted version of this life?It’s the life of a man from Wexford which answers these questions for us.This is his story.The music for this episode was written, preformed and produced by Ryhan O’Halloran.This story was research and scripted by Oran.We the Irish is an Ireland Loves production.If you want to help to support this podcast, you can buy us a coffee at www.buymeacoffee.com/wetheirish See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
