Is appeared an action verb or an verb?

The verb 'appeared' is both a linking verb and an action verb.The easy way to recognize a linking verb is that a linking verb acts as an equals sign, the object of the verb is a different form of the subject (Mary is my sister. Mary=sister); or the subject becomes the object (My feet got wet. feet->wet); for example:Susan appeared confident during the debate. (Susan->confident)The verb 'appeared' is an action verb because it is a word for the 'actof' appearing. Appeared is not always a linking verb but appeared is always an action verb. Another example:Susan appeared out of nowhere. (appeared is not a linking verb; 'out of nowhere' is not Susan or a form of Susan)
