I was looking into some of the older batman comics and I wanted to know more about the personal politics of the writers. Frank miller, moore, etc, and needless to say I didn't really find much in that regard.

I posted an article above; just as an example to what kind of info I could find about that subject. I'm not satisfied.

Like are superheroes just a right wing ideal? That issues in the world need (a few) very powerful people in order to solve instead of just systematically solving them?

Or is that the superheroes we do have are made by people with rightwing leanings?

    Conservative or not, I just find the entire idea silly.

    A community finds out that they have someone with supernatural powers living next to them. Their powers can uplift poverty and eliminate hunger or eliminate fascist wars. But coincidentally, the earth just so happens to be attacked by some Mega Aliens from the Zeboid dimension. That, or some mad scientist just so happens to inject himself with Evil Serum and also gain super powers. Thus humanity’s problems become more grandiose or individualized.
