I'm confused, but not being gender specific but isn't she a she, so how's she a guy?

Its way to late for this...sorry!

Meant as a joke but you raise a valid point!

Why is Frank Castle a "Good guy" then?

or Wolverine, or Red Hood, or Ghost Rider, or Moon Knight or The Spectre or Wonder Woman or Jonah Hex or Blade or Deadpool...

Just saying there's a lot of "good guys" who kill quite a bit in the comics

I mean you are right, I should have changed the word, I copied and pasted it from a tweet.

But "Good Guy" and "Bad Guy" does get universally used in comics for both even if it is a gendered term.

The moral quagmire in whom they kill and why. Characters like Deadpool or Logan aren't good guys either, they're anti-heroes so basically the grey area between them.

In the dynamic of comics though anti-heroes may not be heroes they are still deemed "the good guys" though.

I would argue Pamela (especially more modern Pamela) fits into that same bracket.

I was thinking about this the other day while watching Batman and Robin

Freeze and Ivy are just literally trying to save the planet and Freeze’s wife

Their route wasn’t the best way though

I don't think they are deemed as "the good guys"...they are simply the protagonists in those stories so they are portrayed in a more relatable and sympathetic way. If you have watched the new Harley Quinn animated show, poison Ivey is portrayed as a "good guy". You also have someone like deadpool, who in the beginning was a full on psychotic murderous wolverine villain, and had no redeeming qualities...and than in time (when he became more popular) he started to shift in a more antihero persona, eventually getting his own comic book where he became the protagonist and was portrayed in a more sympathetic way for the readers. It's all about the perspective of the story.

I thought they were classed as anti-heroes as they don't follow the norm of the "good guy" code so to speak. I always root for the anti heroes though.. they are more bad ass lol
