When they try to darken Superman, it will fail.

When they did right by Wonder Woman with positive messages it works.

Millar's a particular guy, he's not one that's ever been a huge DC writer that guided these characters to my knowledge.

As for your point 2, well, you might want to let the publishing division know that Superman no longer works.

And let The CW know as well as Supergirl, which comes from a similar era, works idealism very well and is a shining spot amid the complicated and cynical.

The films were lead initially by Zack Snyder and they've all been a disaster because he was the absolute worst choice because he didn't understand Superman at all.
