Superman: Fact or Fiction



It seems that my distaste for the editors of the Jack Bauer wiki has led me to make a 2nd edit to said article. This one was short buy sweet. The first line of the wiki states:

"Jack Bauer, a character played by actor Kiefer Sutherland, is the main character in the American television series 24."

This is a completely legittimate statement. However, what followed held little weight in the fictional world of 24. Someone had wrote that, "He is generally viewed as a flawed hero." What does that even mean? This man is responsible for saving the lives of millions in this country at least five seperate times! Some of these actions were even made on Jack's own volition. There is a reason why Jack Bauer doesn't kick back with a beer on his couch and watch T.V., and that reason is because he would simply rather be out saving the world.

The edit I made replaced the words, "flawed hero" with "modern day Superman" (pictured above). Any 24 fan that would disagree with this statement needs to take a step back and realize one thing: you're wrong buddy. Don't ever say my Jack Bauer is a flawed hero, ever! The man has 24 hour days that wouldn't even resemble your worst nightmare.

As for whomever made the correlation of Jack Bauer and the word flawed, I pity you and feel that you need to re-evaluate your life. You can view the edit right here at the very top of the article.

Chris, I'm sorry but I disagree with you. I think Jack is immortal and can do whatever he wants to whomever he wants, whenever he wants.

Scott, what you said holds much veracity. As for the "Jack Bauer quotes" which you conveniently put in your comment, my personal favorite would be this one:

"If google can't find something, it asks Jack Bauer..."
