I was looking into some of the older batman comics and I wanted to know more about the personal politics of the writers. Frank miller, moore, etc, and needless to say I didn’t really find much in that regard.
I posted an article above; just as an example to what kind of info I could find about that subject. I’m not satisfied.
Like are superheroes just a right wing ideal? That issues in the world need (a few) very powerful people in order to solve instead of just systematically solving them?
Or is that the superheroes we do have are made by people with rightwing leanings?
Zamn.
I haven’t had the time to watch movies but is that really what that was about?
Yes, but the lack of acknowledgement from Batman and Riddler just committing random acts of violence at the end just made the movie dumb as hell to me. They built up this grand narrative then just… liberalism.
With Joker, at least they didn’t try to make Joker into some underdog with an agenda trying to fight the rich. He just had a personal grievance due to the same factors as Riddler (abuse, poverty, mental illness) that spiraled out of control and accidentally made him a symbol of resistance.
