It’s a good thing that geeks have outgrown their love of right wing revenge fantasies since the 80s. Excuse me now, I’m going to watch Boondock Saints.

What I want to know was exactly who it was at DC management that thought that this guy and Alan Moore were a good fit…

Just like Captain Atom, another character who had a long running title yet has since gone off the fan radar (apart from that sad effort to restore the original ARMAGEDDON 2001 ending)!

(I like Captain Atom, and I’m amazed his series lasted as long as it did.)

And yet one of the most recent assortments of mass-market “DC Universe Classics” action figures includes Vigilante! Must be *someone’s* favorite.

I remember reading that, way back when.

I rather liked it, even though I thought to costume was ridiculous, even when measured against superhero tropes.

What I think is neat/funny is how Nightwing’s costume of the 90s/2000s is basically a more aesthetically pleasing reinterpretation of Vig’s threads.
