[QUOTE="DrunkonDuty, post: 9131143, member: 54364"] I did say it would be unpopular... In hind sight perhaps I should not have said "just don't belong on the same team." :) But I also said: Thor and Hawkeye should do different things. So yes, I agree with you folks who say (and I paraphrase) Batman should sneak around doing sneaky stuff while Superman battles Darkseid. Where it fails for me (and I suspect most people) is situations like Batman easily evading Darkseid's nega beams. Something that, canonically, even Flash can only barely do. Yes, I know we can be meta about it and say "well, you can't kill off Batman so of course he survives." But to me that's a total arse-pull. It's bad writing. You want Batman to survive Darkseid? Don't put them in direct confrontation. Which brings me back to find another way for Batman to be useful, i.e.: do sneaky stuff. So I'll amend my previous unpopular opinion to: Thor and Hawkeye should be on different missions. I mean, would you really want to try to quietly infiltrate a Hydra base with Thor in tow? As for supers and soap. Bring it on, baby. Claremont had it right. Supers is just soap opera with spandex. [/QUOTE]
