- Manga (Shonen/Seinen): One Piece, My Hero, Dandadan, Jujutsu Kaisen, Kaiju No. 8, Reincarnation of The Veteran Soldier, Oblivion Rouge, ORDEAL, The Breaker: Eternal Force
"power does not corrupt, power always reveals."

Superman's Triangle Era, especially stories that focus on his relationship with his parents
Wonder Woman by George Perez, especially "Chalk Drawings"
