1. The
costume
which
Stallone
is
wearing
shows
that
he
is
ready
for
combat
and
knows
what
is
about
to
happen.
I
believe
he
is
a
seeker
hero
because
the
suit
he
is
wearing
shows
me
that
he
understands
what
he
has
to
do
and
there
is
surprise
in
what
may
happen
to
him.
There
is
a
gun
in
his
hand
I
can
infer
from
this
that
there
is
about
to
be

or
that
there
has
been
