Quote: Doctors Without Borders or the Peace Corps don't go into other countries and tell them how to run things. In fact, if a country doesn't want them they don't go in at all. So your analogy doesn't really work, since superheroes are all about doing what's right damn the protocol. We forgive them this because, since they're the good guys, their "right" is right. But looking at the idea of the superhero realistically (always a bad idea) they're really nothing more than unregulated violence prone zealots.I think that's true from a certain perspective for "world's mightiest" teams like the JLA or the Avengers. It doesn't fit so well for adventuring explorers like the FF. Quote: Or to put in another, simpler way:Quote: In the real world, Iron Man would have been right.But only if one could guarantee that the villains wouldn't be able to suborn the system to gain data or control that gave them overwhelming advantages. Does this "real world" also admit hidden political uber-villains like the Red Skull? | |||||||
