Folk Hero Question

If I were to take a hero from Folklore, such as John Henry for example, but play them with my own spin to it to make them more my character with own spin on it, would anyone have a problem with it? Please answer honestly.

I dont believe that I would

Me neither.

Nah

Nope.

Absolutely. How dare you.

(I don't actually care haha)

Wouldn't care at all

I absolutely love the idea, it just sparks new creativity!

Smack those train tracks >:D
