what is the first impression of oedipus

Oedipus speaks of tracks and traces, and the oracle gives little clue as to the events that will unfold. What Oedipus does as the tragic hero, however, is to speed up this revelation of events.Oedipus seems like a hero-figure but is much too eash and impulsive. He has no real second thoughts about who he might be after or how his quest might affect his life.
