Wednesday said: I don't follow. What does physical strength have to do with moral fiber?
I meant it in terms of comparison and relatibility. Living up to fictional standards, and all that. Sorry if it was a bit hazy. I was in a hurry, and paraphrasing an old rant.

I could write several paragraphs telling you why I think comic books (at least certain comic books) COULD and SHOULD be more than just entertainment, but I won't. I'll just say that I think comic books could be held to much higher standards than that, if only we as readers would allow it. Think you make, it could.
I.....don't understand that last sentence. However, I would be all for comics being held to a higher standard. But, only if the content and character parameters were held to the same. Until then, placing a morally two-dimensional being in a "complex" world is a waste of concept and, generally, execution.

Preach it.

I rather like Batman's no killing policy. It works with the character's origin.
And yet, is for me, the hardest one to swallow. The Joker's continued survival just grates the boundaries of logic.

This should apply to WW and CA, methinks.
Totally. If they kill, it means something.
