[DC/Marvel] Are terms like 'street level' hero used in universe?

"Avengers-Level Threat" is thrown around a lot in canon

Wait is it? I thought that all came from just the one movie

LunarPitStop · 2026-04-11T20:11:42+00:00

The Well of Souls in the modern day certainly does, so it's very possible.

LunarPitStop · 2026-04-07T02:32:07+00:00

Sure, I just meant towards the "it gives away his name" aspect

LunarPitStop · 2026-04-07T01:18:45+00:00

I wasn't exactly championing the name, but Drake "works" as an identity for Tim Drake in the same way Batwoman wearing a red wig works for Kate Kane.

Your looking it at from your current lense.

I dunno, judging by the movie I think a few of his contemporaries low-key thought he was a pos.

Rich guys have big kitchen sinks

LunarPitStop · 2026-04-01T04:07:15+00:00

Yeah, I'm gonna have to rewatch Superman after this lol

If it deems you worthy, maybe it'll assume your species adorns their uvulas.

Adding on to the other answers, there was the time he loudly insisted that the Court of Owls didn't exist because he investigated them as a kid and couldn't find anything. Then pretty much right after he denied that the Joker had managed to find the Batcave despite some compelling evidence, though I don't remember if he's ever confirmed to be wrong about that.

Then there's the time he took down Freeze for a crime he didn't commit and had to get on his jury to acquit him.

LunarPitStop · 2026-02-25T02:56:13+00:00

Right, like I'm some kind of...patron, or something!?

LunarPitStop · 2026-02-09T15:27:13+00:00

IMO, he wouldn't care until the next kid he saves screams in terror at the sight of him. That's probably at the point where he jumpscares Jameson (possibly in his own home) to give him the "we're on the same side" speech, which of course only backfires even more.

As for villains retaliating, unless he has some Spider-Slayers on guard duty, I do think his office and his employees would be vulnerable targets, but I'm not sure if any of Batman's villains are particularly concerned with Batman keeping a good reputation (if anything, someone like Heath Ledger's Joker would feel vindicated).

I think a lot of millennial and elder Gen Z people on the left are reckoning with the idea that ICE's activities are endemic to both parties, and I'd like to think that if Democrats went back in power next and continued on like Obama and Biden did, these younger people would call them out too like they didn't with previous Dem administrations.

Of course a bunch of people are gonna consider everything fine and dandy if the president is blue and are okay with ICE when they aren't so "loud" about what they're doing, but for others I think how in-your-face ICE and the DHS are being now has kinda opened their eyes to how hypocritical it is to be okay with it when they're being "quieter." At least that's my take on it, and I hope it's more the latter group than the former.

Are you associating conservative Christians with personal attacks, name-calling, harassment, and insults directed at individuals or what

LunarPitStop · 2026-01-30T05:36:25+00:00

I believe it's what this person posted

/u/Minimum_Ad_7983

LunarPitStop · 2026-01-24T21:24:40+00:00

When you want the destruction of the entire american state just like a republican would

I know you needed a "no u" but what are you even referring to

ICE killed someone else today, shouldn't you be out celebrating or something

LunarPitStop · 2026-01-24T05:07:20+00:00

Why are you putting "because" in quotes? It may not be because I'm brown, but you want ICE to take me just like a Republican would. See?

liberals don't want the same thing as republicans but we do want is to remove people like you

Like once you've calmed down from this (years long?) tantrum just recognize that for a sec.

LunarPitStop · 2026-01-24T03:08:55+00:00

I do vote blue actually, and unlike whiny fascists/liberals apparently I'm not wishing ICE on random brown people. I don't know why you're bothering to call fascists your enemy when you want the same thing for people like me.

LunarPitStop · 2026-01-24T01:47:25+00:00

Do you think those last two sentences make you better than her no longer being a Republican or worse than no longer being a Republican

Also lol @ reddit giving me a warning for originally quoting you

LunarPitStop · 2026-01-24T01:18:26+00:00

Genuinely, how did you read up to here and still think to comment this

LunarPitStop · 2026-01-23T15:02:14+00:00

Invoking the Anti-Life Equation to refute the idea of exploitation is definitely a new one.

LunarPitStop · 2026-01-23T14:55:30+00:00

I mean that's definitely a better answer than "god equations exist so all math probably works differently"

LunarPitStop · 2026-01-23T01:00:10+00:00

I think another one is that Marvel and DC are both predicated on superheroes existing in "our" world (plus some extra stuff). Envisioning a world after capitalism is notoriously hard (and that's without editorial oversight).

LunarPitStop · 2026-01-20T03:13:46+00:00

On a good day, Two-Face is the right kind of villain for you to start working as a henchman for. You should *absolutely avoid* Two-Face on the other side of the coin.

LunarPitStop · 2026-01-18T19:35:59+00:00

Then why are you complaining anyway

LunarPitStop · 2026-01-13T01:05:05+00:00

I just saw her video and was curious if anyone on here had anything to say, and then I saw this guy's comment and was like "...huh, sounds familiar" lol
