Since when has 'heroic' become 'dark'?Really?
I never saw the comic book hero as 'dark'.
That is a liberal concept.

He lives in a cave! Hello!
Depending on your age and your degree of interest, it's likely you never read any of the comics I refer to as "dark". And there was little heroic about them, either, although I wouldn't discard that term. And, quite frankly, I think it is possible to understand and use the term "dark" without being a "liberal" and moreover, the term "dark" as I used it predates the present use of the word liberal by centuries.
1986, the year Frank Miller’s Dark Knight Returns (with Batman) and Alan Moore’s Watchmen started. And Frank was really bringing back the truly original Batman, in the early days of the comics he regularly broke spines and even shot bad guys, he was a mean nasty person.
