Epic hero: someone like superman or spiderman
A story of grand scale.
It can mean huge or gigantic.
In the slang term (ie "that beard is epic", "what an epic show", etc), yes. But if you look at the actual definition, no. Try heroic or bold.
In these times, epic is very blurry definition. When we think of something epic, we mean something from middle ages, or further, and some sort of long and hard adventure. That's about the real definition. But now, it can also be something like the scene from the movie "300", what is now called, as the "THIS IS SPARTA!!!!!"-SCENE. Everything in that scene represents what todays definition for epic stands for.
to good to be real and/or true
The great epic poem of Virgil, of which the hero is Aeneas.
