    Just toss Darwin into the T-cloud, he adapts and Beast makes a vaccine based on his antibodies.

    In the good old days, that might have happen.

    Now it will have to involve a character marketing is trying to push.

    Maybe the T-Mists will be conquered by the power of Cap/Bucky's true love

    Better not. He would turn into an Inhuman in order to survive, Mr. Sinister would go on another rant "the mutants are outdated, Inhumans are superior", and the X-fans would burn the issue...

    Some skepticism is healthy, but the problem is that we've gone into a virtual moral vacuum where almost anything and anyone is treated as ultimately justified or justifiable so long as it or they can be interpreted to have been "necessary" to achieve a (perceived) positive outcome. The idea that there are no absolute moral standards that should be upheld, that just about anything can be or is justified under the right confluence of circumstances and needs, is just as dangerous in its own right as the moral absolutism you speak of. That's how you get people who can and will do anything, no matter how heinous or repugnant, just because they see it as necessary for their goals and morality as an inconvenient obstacle to achieving said goals.[/QUOTE]

    When I read this part it made me think of those drones that drop bombs in the Middle-East, and the closed-off borders in our Schengen area to keep out moochers.

    Maybe this has become part of comics because this is the reality we live in now. Ethics & standards are dead, anything is justifiable.

    The basic superhero came from a simpler time where simple ideals were still believed in. Through the internet and the information-age we now find ourselves in a world where every politician is a liar, every corporation is screwing the masses any way it can, and all immigrants are (apparently) free-loaders. It's not like these things did not happen in previous decades, people simply had less access to information. The world was ethically brighter for the man of the previous century, mostly due to his blessed ignorance.

    People are informed, and have access to more (and more diverse) sources of information. We know what happens outside of the West.

    Nowadays we know better than to believe in thrust and ethics. How can you trust when companies lie, cheat, avoid taxes, buy politicians and believe that lives are less important than profit. When every minister outside of the West is corrupt to his bones. When a recession hits and all people turn to themselves. Simply said, people know better than to believe in trust and honesty. How can Superman be an icon when everything he believes in is being discredited monthly?

    [rant-off]

    It's a bit depressing, but I fear that this is the source of the dark-comics of the 21st century.
