Comic Book Talk
This is the inherent problem when you try to do a mature readers version of a character that has traditionally been more accessible. If you're going to do it, you can't get cold feet at the first sign of controversy. And there's going to be controversy because this isn't early 90's Vertigo or a new character with no background. It's one of your company's flagship characters. Either commit to the fact that you're going to ruffle feathers with it or don't do it.
