Thanks for that - the visual of batman/supes/aquamuffin etc says what I was trying to say a thousand times better than I could. Outdone by a fucking sock.
And yeah Matt Ryan was great, especially in the later episodes when they finally stopped being so prissy and highlighted the smoking, drinking, naughty/nasty side of him. He and the dude from Lost playing the angel made that show watchable. And now it's cancelled.
