Lehet, hogy ezzel most nem mondok újat, de az Irredeemable baromi jó. Aki nem ismerné: Mark Waid idei sorozata, azzal indul, hogy egy volt szuperhős egyszer csak gyilkolni kezdi a volt csapattársait és az emberek millióit. A sorozat azt mutatja be, min megy keresztül egy szuperhős, ha korábbi önmagával ellentétessé, teljesen gonosszá válik, milyen okok válthatják ezt ki.
Azt hiszem, az író mutatta így be a sorozatot:
"The beauty of Superman is that he can deal with that level of adulation without it going to his head, without it warping him, but he's a very special individual. We presume, whenever we write superheros and we come up with superhero origins, that anybody who gets the powers of a superhero — even if they are like Spider-Man and they've got things they've got to work out that issue and responsibility and power and responsibility — we assume that they eventually have the emotional makeup it takes to overcome these things. Well, what if you gave that level of power to someone who, at heart, didn't have that emotional capability?"
