...is Marvel gonna bring Janet back?
I mean, let's think about this:
-Janet is now one of the protagonists of the heavily-sucessful Marvel TV show "Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes". It would be very bad bussiness for Marvel to have all the fans of the current cartoon show pick up the comics only to find out that Janet is dead.
-What better way to generate hype for the upcoming movie "The Avengers" than by bring back Janet?
-Janet is a major superhero. She has history, going back to the 60s incarnation of the Avengers. She is one of the oldest (in real world timing) and most famous superheroines in the Marvel Universe.
Those kind of heroes NEVER stay dead. Remember when Captain America died? When Superman died? Or Batman, Donna Troy, Barry Allen, Mockingbird, Bucky or the Doom Patrol? Hell, every single X-Men major player has died at least once.
Janet is a major player, and major players don't stay dead. Good superheroes never die.
But no, Batman is the "cool" hero, so we are willing to overlook HIS character flaws.
DC just want to keep all Kryptonians as sterile for some reason. Sure, they could do as they say, but DC still balks at the idea of Superman actually conceiveing a child for some reason.
By the way, since parodies/movies/cartoon shows don't count, that also makes your original point moot. Superman was NEVER abusive or neglectful to his only canonical son, Christopher Kent.
And this also deviates from my main point. I was talking about the relation between Batman and his partners in terms of husband/wife (or uke/seme when it comes to Robin, Nightwing and Red Robin), NOT father/son or father/daughter.
The comparison should be be between Batman and an abusive husband, not an abusive parent, since that was my original point (that Batman is as much of an abusive husband as Hank Pym but no one calls out Batman on that).
Wait, Supes had a cannon son?
