In your initial post, compare the character of Gilgamesh with at least one of the heroes from Module 1 (Classical Greek myths) or Module 2 (Star Wars IV). Give three examples that compare the characters how they are alike, or contrast the characters how they are different. You may also choose to compare and contrast. Explain how both of the characters Gilgamesh and your choice of heroes from Module 1 or Module 2 fit the archetype of hero and how the hero has evolved.
