All language subtitles for Ancient Aliens S08E09 Aliens And Superheroes

Super strength.

He's a normal guy, he
becomes incredibly powerful.

Super speed.

He had very advanced capabilities.

And supernatural abilities.

Suddenly he's a god with godlike powers.

Throughout history, humans have told
tales of beings with incredible powers.

But could these ancient stories

that continue to be retold today

have extraterrestrial origins?

There's an intuitive knowing
that these stories are true,

that beings did come from
other planets to save humankind.

Millions of people around the world

believe we have been visited in
the past by extraterrestrial beings.

What if it were true?

Did ancient aliens really
help to shape our history?

And if so,

could there be a connection between aliens

and today's superheroes?

X-ray vision.

Incredible strength.

The power of flight.

These are just a few of
the superhuman abilities

of modern day comic book heroes.

But stories of beings
with extraordinary powers

have been told throughout history,

dating all the way back to ancient times.

The most famous are those involving
the Greek gods known as the Olympians.

These powerful beings
could create earthquakes,

become invisible,

and even harness lightning.

But there is an important
difference between the Olympians

and the fictional superheroes of today.

The ancient Greeks believed
that the Olympians were real.

A huge difference between the
ancient world and the modern world

is we have developed this... this
very strict sense of real and not real,

which really didn't
matter so much back then.

The ancients believed that these heroes

had been there, that they were real people.

We're always looking at mythology

as a basis for our storytelling.

A character like Wonder Woman

is immediately established
in Greek mythology.

She's built on the story of the Amazons;

there's Hercules, there's
Zeus; the Olympian gods play

every aspect of who she is.

Could it be that today's superheroes

trace their origins
back to the ancient gods?

And if the people who worshipped these gods

believed them to be real,

is it possible they actually were?

Perhaps the answer can be found

by more closely examining
the stories of gods and heroes

in the ancient world.

The Dikteon Cave on the
Greek island of Crete

is believed by some scholars

to fit the location and description given

by the eighth century BC poet Hesiod

for the childhood home of Zeus,

the leader of the Olympians.

Archaeologists have found remains
of religious offerings here

that date back 4,000 years...

to the exact period when the
stories of the Olympians took place.

But could the ancient Greeks

have left these offerings
to a powerful being

they actually witnessed
with their own eyes?

We have these stories of these
gods that had these supernatural,

magical powers.

Let's be honest...

magical, supernatural
powers don't really exist.

So what was it that was described?

In my opinion, it was people who had access

to advanced technology.

There's an old saying... one man's
magic is another man's engineering.

Magic is just some knowledge
we don't understand.

It is, therefore, super
or above our understanding.

It is transcendent, that's
what "super" implies.

Ancient astronaut
theorists believe the notion

that our ancestors actually
witnessed advanced technology

is supported by the fact that similar stories of
godlike beings can be found on every continent.

Historian and author Joseph Campbell

found that even cultures that had
never had contact with the outside world

developed similar hero stories.

So the fact that we have all
these similar hero stories

from all around the world, from
different types of ancient cultures,

to me suggests that they were
visited by the same teachers.

The myths came from ancient oral culture.

We don't know when, but you can see almost
identical gods showing up in ancient India,

ancient Greece, and ancient Norway,

so it was a long time ago before
these people started to spread out.

The power of flight,

magical objects, which allow the
superhero to always be victorious.

Talismans that allow the superhero

to change from an ordinary human being to
somebody who can access those magical powers.

Those are part of a number of different stories
of superheroes that really span time and culture.

But what ancient astronaut
theorists find most intriguing

is how remarkably similar the
tales of ancient heroes are

to the superhero stories of today.

It's fascinating to me when
you look at the Superman stories

and how Superman has come
from this other planet,

one that exploded.

He comes here with superpowers.

He can fly through the air,

and it's very much like
the ancient Sumerian stories

and Hindu stories of these extraterrestrial
gods coming from other planets to Earth

in order to help us and
move our planet forward.

Even the iconic "S" on Superman's chest

seems to have been adapted from
legends told thousands of years ago.

Heroes and gods from ancient Greek,
Buddhist, and Christian religions

are portrayed with
symbols near their heart.

In Christian art, you will see Jesus
wearing a glowing robe with a glowing heart.

So, we see this correspondence here of

this imagery of an archetypal
figure or a savior figure.

Today, almost every superhero
has an icon on his chest.

Could this be inspired by
some piece of technology

our ancestors witnessed
on an alien being...

like the arc reactor on Iron
Man's chest that powers his suit?

And might these similarities
mean the stories of Superman,

Batman, and Spider-Man

are based on our ancestors'
experiences with extraterrestrials?

These are things that are common and
symbolic throughout these stories,

and they, to me, imply
that we're talking about

similar figures or figures that
are here for the same reason.

And that is to advance us forward.

What we may be seeing is the
reason why Superman may resonate

so much with us is not just because we've
heard the story before in other forms.

But because our ancient ancestors
actually experienced this story

in a very, very real way.

In a very, very ancient time.

Is it possible that the reason we continue
to be fascinated by superheroes today

is that we're trying to reconnect with similar
beings that lived among us thousands of years ago?

It is possible some deep part of us,
perhaps in our DNA or genetic memory,

is remembering that there was a time in
which the gods, the extraterrestrials,

did interact with us.

And that may be because, in the past,

there were beings who were more
advanced than we here on Earth were,

who were protecting us from others
who were very dangerous and harmful.

There's an intuitive knowing
that these stories are true;

that these events actually happened;

that beings did come from other
planets, other worlds to save humankind.

Could our modern stories of superheroes

really be inspired by
encounters that early humans had

with extraterrestrial beings?

Perhaps further clues can be found

by examining mankind's earliest stories,

in which super beings waged war...

not against humans,

but against supervillains.

May 4, 2012.

The Avengers opens in
theaters across America.

This blockbuster film

chronicles six superheroes
who band together

to battle extraterrestrial forces of evil.

Powerful superheroes

have been popular in comic books and movies

for over half a century...

and nearly all have one very dark
and forbidding feature in common:

supervillains.

The arch-nemesis really defines the hero.

You can see how whatever is most
interesting or powerful about the hero,

the best villains are the opposite.

The archvillain is
psychologically very powerful,

because there's an echo of that archetype

that's not just "me
versus danger and chaos,"

but sort of "us versus them."

Stories of superheroes
fighting supervillains,

with the fate of the world at stake

are common across many different
cultures and time periods.

In the modern Avengers pantheon,

Thor does battle with his
evil adoptive brother, Loki,

to prevent Loki from
taking over the universe.

The story is inspired by
ancient Norse mythology,

where Thor engages in a
similar battle with Loki

and his children at Ragnarok.

The Greeks had their own
epic battle of the gods,

which they believed created
the world as we know it.

The Titanomachy was a conflict between
the Titans, who ruled the world,

and an upstart group of
gods called the Olympians.

Psychologists say these tales
of good facing off against evil

have always been popular

because they allow people to
project their hopes and fears

onto fictional characters
in make-believe worlds.

But could there be another reason

that these stories are told
again and again around the world?

Joseph Campbell concluded

that somehow these hero myths
had pervaded all cultures.

And you have to wonder if this
isn't because extraterrestrials

came here to our planet

and were heroes all over the world,

and so the same story was
repeated over and over again.

Is it possible that some
of our ancient hero myths

recount specific events involving
extraterrestrial visitors

in the distant past?

Ancient astronaut theorists say yes...

and, as evidence, cite a Sanskrit epic

that describes an enormous war between gods

that came from the stars.

In old India,

we have a clear description
in the Mahabharata...

which is the fifth book, the
so-called Mausala Parva...

a clear description of a war in Heaven.

I mean, it reads like
modern-day science fiction,

this incredible battle between the gods.

Gigantic cities were said
to have orbited the earth.

And when they came together at the
firmament, they were battling each other.

The city Dvaraka was right at
the edge of the Arabian Sea.

Some of the explosion split the city

and then half of the city fell in the sea.

And it is described how two
of these cities were destroyed,

cities on Heaven.

And for the people on Earth,

it looked as if ten thousands
of little stars would fall down.

They are describing

what are extraterrestrial
gods with superpowers,

with airships, with weapons,

and it would seem that
these ancient epic stories

are the same as these superhero
stories that we're hearing today.

Could it be that modern stories, in
which superheroes battle archvillains

for dominance over the earth,

are actually based on ancient wars
between extraterrestrial forces?

Perhaps further clues can be found

in the Babylonian and
Sumerian origin myths.

According to modern interpretations
of the cuneiform writing,

the Enuma Elish describes a
celestial battle some 5,000 years ago

between two groups of gods
that may have actually resulted

in the destruction of a
planet in our solar system.

Sumerian texts make mysterious references

to these other planets
called Marduk and Tiamat.

And within our solar system,

there was some destruction here,

where one of them blew up,

and this would be the theoretical
planet that was between Mars and Jupiter.

Astronomers have often said that
there should be a planet there,

but instead, we have the asteroid belt.

Could the asteroid belt
that circles the sun

between Mars and Jupiter really
be the remnants of a planet

that existed in the distant past...

a planet that was
destroyed in an alien war?

And if so,

are these ancient events echoed today

in the plots of modern superhero stories?

In many ways, these stories,
which are so familiar to us in

TV and movies and comic books,

are really coming to us from these
ancient Sumerian and Hindu texts

that are thousands of years old.

Good versus evil is a longstanding theme
that we see in many ancient cultures,

in which supernatural or
extraterrestrial beings

are coming to our aid

and helping us against the greatest
evil the world has ever known.

Modern stories of superheroes
fighting supervillains,

based on real extraterrestrial battles

that took place above the
earth thousands of years ago.

Could it be true?

Ancient astronaut theorists
believe the answer may be found

not with the stories
of the gods themselves,

but with their technology.

Lemnos, Greece.

3000 BC.

This island in the Aegean Sea

is said to be the home of Hephaestus,

the Greek god of technology.

The son of Zeus and Hera,

king and queen of the gods,

Hephaestus grew up on Mount Olympus,

but he was a small and
physically deformed child.

Unhappy with her son's physical problems,

one Greek legend says Hera
threw him off the mountain.

He fell for nine days and nine nights

and landed in the ocean.

There he was rescued by sea nymphs
who took him to the island of Lemnos.

Hephaestus became the
blacksmith of the gods

and he set up his forge
on the island of Lemnos,

and volcanoes were said to
be entrances to his forge.

Working underneath an active volcano,

Hephaestus is said to have
forged magical objects.

He eventually created the armor,

weapons and other technology
used by the Greek gods and heroes.

Hephaestus is the god of the
great forge and he is the builder.

He creates the armor that
is impenetrable for Achilles.

He creates chariots.

Magical spears, magical
breastplates and so forth,

which gave the gods all
sorts of miraculous powers.

He's even said to have made the chariot

that the god Helios,

the god of the sun, rode across the skies.

Some myths describe Hephaestus

creating even more fantastic devices,

including a bronze bull that breathed fire

and is said to have had voices
coming out of its nostrils

and a powerful robot named Talus

that defended the island of Crete.

He made all these wondrous creations.

And when we look back at those stories,

we have to ask, "Is it possible

that Hephaestus was an
extraterrestrial being

who brought some advanced
extraterrestrial technology to Earth?"

Our ancestors had no experience
with advanced technology,

so they would have described alien
visitors as having superhuman powers

because of their frame of reference.

If they saw an extraterrestrial
with access to incredible "powers,"

which are due to advanced science,

they interpreted that as witnessing God.

And that was never the case.

Magical weapons have been a
key feature of heroic myths

for thousands of years,

but they play an even larger role
in the stories of modern superheroes.

1939.

With new Superman comic
books flying off the shelves,

publishers rush to develop more
heroes to satisfy the public's demand.

The one that makes the biggest impression

is a hero of modern technology...

Batman.

Created by Bob Kane and Bill Finger,

the Caped Crusader leaps
onto the comic book page

and immediately into the
pantheon of pop culture gods.

The idea of Batman is
that he is a normal person.

Nothing has given him super strength.

But he's a normal person who
depends on his technology.

He has a utility belt with
all kinds of modern gadgets.

And he has a Batmobile,
and he has a Batcopter.

So he is a technological
superhero in that sense.

Batman, for us, is probably one
of the most identifiable characters

we have with all of our fans,
with all of our audience.

Because he's a human.

He doesn't do something that pushes
the imagination beyond something that

we don't believe people can actually do.

In 1963,

the comics gave birth to
another iconic character

that is completely dependent on
science for his superpowers...

Iron Man.

In the Iron Man story,
there's this incredible suit

that can make him virtually into a
superman even though he's, he's a mortal.

This is a... a great melding
of the human-machine interface.

This is how we use technology
to do extraordinary things.

Are Batman and Iron Man

modern representations of what
ancient astronaut theorists believe

the ancient gods really were...

mortal beings with advanced technology?

We see a similarity with
modern-day superheroes

in some of the ancient texts of a god who

wears a special ring or
holds a certain staff and can

magically become a creature of flight or

can fly a magic carpet.

Many of the superheroes that we have
today are just normal human beings.

But when they strap on their technology,

like Batman in his super suit or
Iron Man in his flying capabilities,

well, these are just normal mortals

that are using advanced technology

and become superhuman or godlike.

Could modern-day superheroes
like Batman and Iron Man

be the true realization of what
our ancestors were describing

when they wrote about
powerful gods and heroes?

Was Hercules' great strength the
result of a robotic exoskeleton?

Could Hermes' power of flight

have been inspired by
something like a modern jet pack

or gliding suit?

And could Zeus' lightning bolts

have used electrical coils to generate
extraordinarily large voltages?

The ancient people simply
used the vernacular of the time

to express what they were seeing,
and as far as they were concerned,

this could only be the
work of a supreme being.

Superhumans using advanced technology.

Gods at war.

And extraterrestrials
coming from the heavens.

Could these ancient tales really be evidence
of an otherworldly presence on Earth?

Perhaps further clues can be found

in the stories of superheroes hiding

in plain sight.

July 3, 2007.

After spending decades
as larger-than-life toys

and animated television characters,

the Transformers hit the big screen

with the American premiere
of their first feature film.

The extraterrestrial
storyline is a familiar one.

The Transformers, in a way, are
m... mechanical versions of Superman.

They come from another planet.

They can adapt to being here.

And then, as in a lot of Superman stories,

the enemy is from that planet.

There's some evil that follows
them, that chases them down.

So, they're having this ancient
battle from their homeland,

but they're having it here.

Unlike Batman or Iron Man,

the Transformers aren't
humanoids that use technology.

They actually are technology.

But the most remarkable power the
Transformers use against their foes

is one of the most important
in all of heroic myth.

The ability to change from ordinary beings

into superheroes when evil threatens.

It's the archetype of
metamorphosis or transformation.

Shape-shifting, if you will.

This comes down to us from
the ancient mythologies.

Shape-shifting allows gods
to interact with humans

in a way that they would
not otherwise be recognized.

In fact, often times

the god or goddess cannot appear
to the mortal in their full splendor

because such a thing would
actually kill the mortal.

Ancient astronaut theorists

suggest that stories of gods
living anonymously among us

are common because they describe a time
when extraterrestrials did just that.

As evidence, they cite an
ancient story they believe

bears an uncanny resemblance to the
Transformers' shape-shifting myth.

A story about the Mayan god Kukulkan

who is portrayed both as a flying serpent

and a man.

We have descriptions of a winged serpent
that flew over our ancestors' heads.

But at the same time, we also know that Kukulkan
was also someone that gave instructions to the people

in pretty much humanoid form.

So does that mean that Kukulkan
was, in fact, a shape-shifter?

Ancient astronaut theorists
propose another possibility.

They contend that perhaps
the ancient people,

being unfamiliar with advanced technology,

witnessed an alien being in a spacecraft.

Imagine for a moment a craft lands,

a hatch opens and then the pilot
walks out and gives instruction.

There isn't really a
differentiation between

the machine and the
person coming out of it,

because they didn't understand the
technological concept behind it.

The instructor then went back
into the craft and took off.

All of a sudden, Kukulkan
becomes this winged serpent

that flies across the sky.

Is it possible that this scenario
may have actually played out

in the distant past?

And if so,

did it inspire the shape-shifting myths

that humans have told for millennia?

We have the same stories,

the core of the stories, worldwide
in most of the mythologies.

They are all linked together.

They had different names,
were different heroes,

different personalities, but at the end,

it was all the same extraterrestrials

having contact with the humans some
thousands and thousands of years ago.

But could there be an even deeper meaning

behind the tales of otherworldly heroes...

like the Transformers and Kukulkan...

hiding among us?

Perhaps further clues can be found

by examining the stories of godlike beings

disguising themselves as ordinary humans.

Superman hides his identity by

pretending to be mild-mannered
newspaper reporter Clark Kent.

Wonder Wan disguises herself
as a nurse named Diana Prince.

And Spider-Man's alter ego is Peter Parker.

Virtually every really popular
superhero has a clear and recognizable

ordinary human identity.

It's an essential part
of the superhero archetype

that they be able to look like us and

feel like us and live like us, but then

be able to explode into
their super-powered self.

We have a deep inner longing

to have that story retold,

perhaps through some sort of genetic
memory written right into our DNA.

We seem to be remembering,
on some deep level,

a part of us that can come in contact

with extraterrestrial
capabilities and actualize them

as we ourselves reach the
next level of human evolution

or what may have been a
level that we had long ago

and was deliberately turned
off in our DNA for some reason.

Is it really possible that we tell
stories of superheroes disguised as humans

because it is written in our genetic memory

that we have special abilities
hidden within ourselves?

And if so,

what could be the source
of those abilities?

We may not have originated on Earth.

We may have been seeded
on Earth by other humans

who are far older than we are and who are
far more genetically advanced than we are.

Perhaps some part of us remembers

that there is a way in which we could
be exposed to certain technologies

that activate this dormant DNA within us,

that propel us to the next level of what
it means to be a live, evolved human being.

Could it be that stories of
superheroes hiding among us

are so popular because extraterrestrials
have manipulated our DNA,

hiding extraordinary powers
deep inside all of us?

Perhaps the answer can be found

by exploring the stories of heroes

whose powers are the
result of genetic mutation.

New York City.

1962.

Marvel Comics editor Stan Lee,

wants to create a new breed of superhero.

One of the masterminds behind the
Fantastic Four and the Avengers,

Lee invents a character literally
born out of modern science:

Spider-Man.

Radiation was very much
in the news at the time.

And I figured, well, let's let him
get his power through radiation.

And I figured the spider would
bite Peter Parker on the hand.

Since the spider was radioactive, I
assumed that his little spider sting

would insert some radioactivity
into Peter's bloodstream.

Now, having radioactivity in your blood,
especially if it was spidery radioactivity,

that should give you some
of the qualities of a spider.

Spider-Man's just a normal teenager
until he's bitten by a radioactive spider.

Suddenly, he's a
combination of normal person,

but also a god with godlike powers.

I thought, "He'll have the
proportionate strength of a spider."

In other words, if a spider
were as large as a human being,

that's how strong the spider would be...

which made Peter Parker very strong.

I also figured he could stick to walls

like a spider or any insect.

Although exposure to radiation

scrambles Spider-Man's genetic material,

there's a precedent for
it in ancient mythology:

genetic manipulation through the
mixing of mortal and immortal blood.

Anjaneri, India.

Two miles outside this small village,

in a cave surrounded by
forests and mountains,

is where many believe one of Hindu
mythology's greatest heroes was born:

Hanuman.

Hanuman was part god because his father

was the god of wind

and his mother is a mortal human being.

So, then, obviously,

uh, he has the qualities,
the power of wind god

and he's able to fly

and he is able to multiply in his size.

So because of that, he's
definitely a demigod.

Hanuman

is often depicted as
half-man and half-monkey,

which underlines his mixed bloodline.

Is it possible that this
is a non-scientific way

of describing genetically
engineered super beings,

as ancient astronaut theorists contend?

One of the common themes
in ancient texts is

ancient gods or extraterrestrials
coming here and then manipulating our DNA

and changing us

into more superior beings.

As evidence of the genetic experiments

they believe took place
in the prehistoric past,

ancient astronaut theorists cite
depictions of hybrid creatures

found in cultures around the world:

winged horses in Assyrian
and Sumerian myths,

the elephant-headed deity
Ganea in the Hindu pantheon,

and Khepri, the ancient
Egyptian god of the morning sun.

The Egyptian deity,
Khepri, is shown as either

a beetle, or as a human
with the head of a beetle.

And you have to ask, what are they
trying to tell us here about Khepri?

Could he have been half human, half insect?

Some ancient astronaut theorists

believe the hybrids
depicted by the ancients

may have actually been the result of
extraterrestrial genetic experiments

in the distant past.

These things aren't very far off from what
we have in our ancient tales of creation.

In the Sumerian epic of creation,

we hear about the Anunnaki literally
putting their genetic marker on us

and creating us in their
image and after their likeness.

Could genetic experiments long ago

have been part of an ancient alien
effort to create the human race?

Some very strange things happened
in the course of human evolution.

We go from Neanderthals

with no apparent "missing link" whatsoever,

and all of a sudden,
our brain size doubles,

our thumbs becomes more usable,

we can walk erect more easily.

There's a large number of changes
that take place in a very short time.

Might the entire human species

have been created by extraterrestrial
genetic experiments in the past?

And could our genetic
memory of this be the reason

we create genetically
altered superheroes today,

including mutants like the X-Men

and the Incredible Hulk

and hybrids like Hawkman,
Animal Man, and Spider-Man?

Is it possible that when we
are seeing superhero movies,

that on some level we are remembering

having been changed before?

That perhaps we were like
the Neanderthals before,

and this already happened,

we already had some sort of genetic upgrade

that brought us to the next
level of human evolution?

Are modern comic books
of hybrids and mutants

actually inspired by an
ancient alien intervention

thousands of years ago?

And might we create these stories
because we are subconsciously aware

of something greater within ourselves?

Ancient astronaut theorists say yes,

and believe that our own
recent technological advances

may be bringing us closer

to a reconnection with our alien past.

Livingston, New Jersey.

May 2001.

Scientists at the Institute
for Reproductive Medicine

made headlines when they revealed
they had created the world's first

genetically modified baby.

Using a process called
cytoplasmic transfer,

they implanted mitochondrial DNA
from a second mother into an egg

to make it easier for it to bond
with sperm and form a viable fetus.

When scientists performed genetic tests
on the babies born out of this process,

they detected genetic
material from a third parent.

The reason the cytoplasmic transfer
is controversial is because it's

human manipulation of the human
germ cell line, in other words

the, um, cell line that is
passed from parent to offspring.

We typically just inherit our genetic
material from both of our parents,

so there's a direct line of descent.

With the introduction
of cytoplasmic transfer,

suddenly you have, um, humans
manipulating that germ line,

that cell line, or DNA line
passed on from parent to offspring.

If perfected,

genetic manipulation could
could allow scientists

to introduce DNA from an unlimited
number of people into a fetus.

This would allow them to rid
babies of genetic disease.

But it could also, theoretically,
let them tinker with natural traits

to create superhumans that are
much faster, stronger, and smarter

than those that have come before.

You are altering the genetic
future of the human race

based on your sort of current, um,
preferences, let's say, for a person's traits.

It's sort of into perpetuity affecting
the genetic line of descent in humans.

And so, that's something very different
than had ever been performed before,

and that's certainly controversial.

The concept of altering genes...

whether these genes are in
food, animals, or humans...

has always created a firestorm of protest.

In this case, the controversy forced an
American moratorium on cytoplasmic transfer.

Even so, scientists say the technology

may eventually be developed that
will allow us to give superpowers...

including amazing strength,
eyesight, and intelligence...

to our children while
they're still in the womb.

Today more than ever, we're
capable of playing god.

We have incredible superpowers at
our fingertips with genetic technology

and you have to ask, "Are
we trying to duplicate

what we saw the gods
possessing in the ancient world?

Are we hardwired or programmed
to develop these technologies

so that we can equal our makers?"

Do we yearn to become
like the advanced beings

that ancient astronaut
theorists believe created us

thousands of years ago,

and might this be why superhero
stories continue to fascinate us?

I think the reason why people
like these superhero stories that

literally go back thousands of years is because
they're possibly explaining our actual human origins.

Every culture around the world
talks about an intervention event

where beings from the heavens
came down and gave us knowledge.

If we really are the product
of alien genetic experimentation

as ancient astronaut theorists believe,

might our own DNA resemble
that of otherworldly beings?

And if so,

are we becoming more
and more like our makers,

through our own technological
breakthroughs and genetic advances?

In many ways, our society
has come full circle

where in ancient times we had
extraterrestrials here manipulating our DNA,

and now we're the ones who
are manipulating our own DNA

to also create a more
advanced human species.

Who knows what's possible?
It's a brave new world.

Everything changes

and we have abilities that are so different that
it's as if a quantum shift in human evolution

has taken place.

Are ancient stories of heroes
and gods with mythological powers

really based on encounters
with extraterrestrials?

And might modern-day superheroes

be inspired by our desire to
reconnect with these powerful beings?

Could characters like Batman...

Spider-Man... and Superman

be the humans of tomorrow?

Perhaps as our technology
continues to advance,

we are drawing closer
to coming face-to-face

with our alien ancestors.
