To each his own.
That’s my take on it as well.
There seems to be a lot of interest lately in taking popular fictional characters and subverting them into the antithesis of what they were originally.
Vicious cycles are a real thing, but arbitrarily turning pop heroes into the “real bullies!” can easily play into psychological manipulation and projectionism.
Then there’s this; personally, I’m not even remotely interested in what happened to ‘Danny Russo’ and his high school nemesis, ‘Johnny,’ 30 years after the fact. There comes a point when it’s time to grow up and move on.
