What’s the difference between a hero and a villain? Do just superpowers make you a superhero? Why isn’t there “superhero insurance” in comic books?
After reading the Irredeemable comic series, Sue and I were inspired to have a long philosophical chat about good versus evil and whether superheroes should be responsible for property damage. Though neither of us grew up comic book readers, we discuss the influence of superheroes like Batman, Superman, the Avengers, the X-Men, Spiderman and so on; we also bring up superhero-inspired projects like The Incredibles, Hulu’s The Awesomes, and Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog.
Brief warning: While some of the spoilers we mention are a few decades old, there are spoilers for newer properties like Irredeemable.
