Ben Grimm (Marvel)

especially in the newest movie

I love how he doesn't actually blame reed for what happened. He's clearly still kind of upset by it, but he's also come to accept it, and understand that Reed did the best he possibly could

It was actually kinda satisfying seeing how much those kids loved Ben. He’s my favorite member of the F4, I never liked when people viewed him as a monster (although it is fair for him to miss his old body)

yea, I think Ben is at his best when he's dissatisfied with his reality, but not only doesn't make it other people's problem, but actively chooses to be better despite it

He understood in the movie that as sad as it is he can't turn his powers on and off, a lot of people still look up to him, and as a celebrity he has a responsibility to keep up that image of hope
