Analysis:
***“One guy chatted away, a little too loudly if you ask me, to what sounded like a broker on his cell phone.”(102) This is an example of a metaphor, because Thom compares the way a hero try-out candidate talks on his phone like the loudness of a broker.
***“She sopped reading the magazine and looked straight ahead, like maybe a mosquito was buzzing in her ear.”(104) This is also an instance of a metaphor because Thom is again comparing another candidate. Thom compares Scarlette’s abrupt reading stop to as if a mosquito was bugging her.
***“Psst.”(105) This is obviously an example of onomatopoeia. This is true because when you pronounce this word, you produce the exact definition.
Quote:
“Why can’t I keep my locker upstairs with you guys?” "Look, Kevin, Justice was very clear. This way it needs to be for now.”(150) This quote is significant because it pushes into a new theme and it shows the tendencies of the League. This quote shows how the League takes every action of its heroes very seriously. So when Kevin, Golden Boy, made a mistake in Thom’s discovery mission, he was immediately demoted. This caption also shows a theme that even small mistakes can have enormous consequences.
Theme:
An emerging theme is that even small mistakes can have enormous consequences.
