Ye seems like the 'longbow killer' is just going after people in OQ's circle rather than a general anti-capitalist crusade, while superman does feel more like that even when going against specifically Lazarus because its so pervasive within the world of ASM
Also, really feels like they're trying to have their cake and eat it too by constantly being all judgmental of the folks cheering for the deaths. Like maybe the MC is gonna come around on it all, but I doubt it given it's the second chapter (of 6 , I guess?) and the killer is already taking questionable victims. Really seems like someone thought "ooh, people were cheering for Luigi how do we capitalize on that without actually supporting it?"
Very much so,

ye showing little remorse when accidentally killing the son is setting him up to go the classic comic villain route: has very reasonable point, inexplicably has to commit an atrocity so the hero's a hero for stopping them, hopefully they flip it, which if in any mainline dc series would do that it'd be thislol, yep, totally agree.

The second he showed no remorse, I did a frustrated Jeff GoldBlum "well there it is".I'm just not expecting much at this point.
