Beacuse some christian say that everything that comes from Fantasy is from the devil him self
 
I think you should speak to your Priest and not canvass people on the internet to base your opinion around.

I’m sorry, but I’m confused if you said you were scrupulous or not. If you are, you need to talk to your Priest about your scruples. He is the person best able to help you.

J.R.R. Tolkien was one of the greatest fantasy authors of all time. He was also a devout Catholic. I think for reading fantasy to become sinful it would have to involve sinful material, such as impurity. Otherwise, I don’t see the issue.
 
My love of fantasy was formed by two Christian authors: Tolkien (a devout Catholic) and CS Lewis.
 
I can say from experience that it was spiritually unhealthy to ‘love’ fictional characters and stories.
If let out of hand, it can divert the love that belongs to my family, and the faith that belongs to God.
You can be a ‘fan’ as long as you aren’t a fanatic. The only thing we can really be radical, fanatic, or extreme in is love, especially love of God and his will.

Avoid having more posters or fandom memorabilia than Christian icons. It will affect you psychologically.

Otherwise YEAH HEROES AND ANALOGOUS VIRTUE TO APPLY TO OUR OWN LIVES WOOHOO!!!
