Personally, I prefer it when these people show that they're still human—if they are outnumbered ten to one, they can still win, but will take hits, and those hits will have consequences.
I also like the focus on visual storytelling that Jones does; I actually think a lot of superhero comics ends up cluttered and hard to follow. And her way of presenting Creel's backstory was just genius, something that one really only can do in comics.
