Kelly: When I was flying in combat over Iraq during the first Gulf War, I didn’t expect that there was a 10-year-old kid sitting in South Africa who would one day become the richest guy in the world and call me a traitor for doing my job. Now, he kind of acts like a 12-year-old kid

There's a more interesting story to tell about Javert. Or Gavroche. Basically anyone in the story except him, whether it goes back to the source or not.

Les Misérables' Jean Valjean is basically a superhero already and now he’s getting the requisite origin story to boot.

the latest in my one-and-done series might have been a more serious contender for the Hall if his first full major league season happened before age 28, but Ben Zobrist nonetheless became an unlikely star and changed the way the industry thought about roster construction.
