Oh yeah, I am not comparing their motivations, I get why Miller does what he does and why Moore does it. Just telling my own personal path with comics, what basically killed the idea of a "superhero". I now abhor the idea of a Batman, from either the perspective that vigilantism is stupid and not how we should be solving real world problems, or the absurdity of a billionaire-by-day is the best detective-martial-artist in the world.

I don't know, I guess it just took me ~25 years to realize the silliness of it all. Comics were my escapism growing up, and I guess I used to think of them differently.
