So, it's sort of Jesse James in Outer Space?
More of Wyatt Earp in outer space. Now admittedly his brother fought with the Union but didn't fit in to the post Civil War US. Family farm sold at auction by the government after his father was caught bootlegging. Moved west to get away from their problems. Tried to be a buffalo hunter, a shop owner, a saloon keeper, and gambler. Sometimes legal, some times in the gray area between. Never wanted to be a law man, but crooks protected by politicians kept messing up his business. So he and some friends fought back. The Earps weren't trying to be heroes and weren't looking for trouble. But trouble just kept finding them. And being a hero was simply an alternative to being dead or crawling before criminals.

I like your analogy. Do you read ‘Castle’ as having a similar vibe or has Nathan grown in the part, as we sometimes say about people in the public eye?
