Kids And Violence In Today's Comics. Literally, Today's Comics.
Last night I had a talk with my daughter about not hitting people. "Spider-Man does it" she replied. I explained that Spider-Man was just a fun story, that it isn't real and that, anyway, Spider-Man was fighting bad guys like thieves and robbers. "But Sally stole my sweets." I can see the conversations continuing long and hard…

Wonder Woman #0
Princess Amethyst #0
Nightwing #0
Batwoman #0
Justice League #0 – hey, that's a kid under all that muscle.
