Big Hero 6 comes from the deep dark vaults of Marvel. It is the first time since Disney bought Marvel in 2009 that the company has delved beyond popular superheroes like Spider-Man, Hulk, and Iron Man. Though only the characters' names and their superpowers remain true to the comic, it doesn't take long to see that Baymax and Hiro are not anything like Batman and Robin. For one thing, the duo's relationship is more akin to Pumbaa and Timon (from The Lion King) than traditional superhero friendships. They hug (a lot!), they're young (Hiro is 14), they create the technology for themselves, and they show their emotions on their sleeves. Though there is significant tragedy in their lives to propel them into greatness (much like Spider-Man, Batman, and every other superhero before them), these characters don't follow your typical plotlines.
