Yes, most likely, but again, I?m talking more about a different trope. Namely, how the hero gets a second wind after a good beating (as it looks in the script) or how numerous injuries only add strength to the protagonist (as it looks on the screen).
I don?t think that this and ?The Invincible Hero? are exactly the opposite thing, at least because for dramatic effect they often tried to emphasize the danger of the last enemy.
