I agree with the writer’s point too, and I’ve always found Batman to be a cynical character who is a questionable “hero” at best.

But it’s an important character to many people, and I think the visceral reaction to this kind of criticism is because these critics have a ton of political power in certain settings and tend to trigger reactions that go over the top.

Right, so the observation you'd next make with respect to Miller is that he probably doesn't see Batman as a questionable hero.

I wouldn’t only because I’m not a “student” of Batman or Miller and honestly don’t know much about it.

No political axe to grind about Batman or Miller, it’s just not a character or style that I personally care for. My wife loves Tim Burton stuff, I do not. I love old school Star Trek, she would rather watch the weather channel lol.
