He’s consistently an “old lefty” sometimes more “sustainable-first capitalist” sometimes more “anarchist”, but his views on things like pollution are well established.
Come on, man. You are portraying a scenario when I opened all comics starting now and stopped when I reached a first one with environmental theme? Is this arguing in good faith?
The image is old because it’s an important part of his worldview for a long time. One of his enemy from this year is named “Fresh Water Killer”.
I’m not doubting he’s pro-environment, but my original comment referred to characters defined by their environmentalism, and the fact that you’re pushing him so hard as a candidate off something that’s very much a secondary characteristic proves how thin the field is overall.
Put it this way, none of the writers of the Wikipedia article on him have included mentions of environmentalism anywhere close to the opening paragraphs.
Though ironically enough, given what the thread was originally about, the only reference to a environmental activism I can see in there is one where he infiltrates a gang of eco-terrorists to take them down…

Well, Green Arrow. But you have a point.
…because he wears green?
Because of his views.

Sure, but we’re really in “exception proving the rule” territory where you have to reach back to 1972 for an environmental plotline.

What his primary characteristic in your mind?
I agree how the filed is overall. He’s a very small represnetiarion. But I stand by that he’s a valid one.

I ment Swamp Thing! Swamp Thing!
Albo, I think Poison Ivey is anti-hero now. So… progress?
Also, Also super heros are by defintion rectionary - it’s a whole thing, there is a book about it. So you may hava a point.
Green arrow has a decent and relatively new series.
