    I do really, really appreciate this trend of showing us iconic superheroes completely burning out and giving up and fucking off and disappearing It really speaks to me

        For me, superheroes represent hope, beings who are more powerful, and, much more importantly, more noble than we are. We want beings who we can look up to and admire. I see "grimdark" and cynicism as basic cowardice, the lack of the courage and imagination needed for hope.

        Looking up to flawless icons is easy, and only sets you up for either suffering from the comparison, or worse, thinking you are also flawless.

        I think it's finally something honest to life. In a poetic kind of way, I feel it shows that even iconic superheroes aren't invincible from #MentalHealth struggles.

        It also reminds me of a verse in one of my favorite @dcfc songs: 'The curtain falls to applause and the Band plays you off, the band plays you off He's a superhero growing bored with no one to save anymore'https://youtu.be/ShXZJoanNw4

        I hate it. When I was younger I was all about *the Darkness*. But as I've gotten older, I feel like, no - actually - we do need heroes, and impossibly idyllic worlds to strive toward *because* of what a shit-hole this world can be when we aren't striving.

        Well my thing is that Fat Thor and Old Luke and Peter B. Parker aren't "gritty '90s antiheroes", who express their negative emotions through rage and violence
