Part 4/9:
Harry Callahan stands as the archetype of Siegel's heroes – a character taken to extreme lengths in defense of societal norms. His disdain for bureaucracy and a "soft" legal system set him at odds with authority, securing his place as a controversial heroic figure. Opposite him, the character of Scorpio, loosely based on the notorious Zodiac Killer, served as a chilling embodiment of the fear that was gripping the nation – a capable yet unpredictable villain who wreaked havoc in the city, thus transforming cops and robbers into a complex ethical debate.
