I don't think it's fair to characterise all "comic book" films as being immature, although there's a lot of shallow super-hero films being pumped out of Hollywood these days. Maybe if more people in the U.S. were familiar with "V For Vendetta" (despite Alan Moore's loathing for that film) then their attitude towards government might well be different.

(Trying to think of another good example and the Watchmen series tackled racism head-on, also Persepolis is a great animation covering the Iranian revolution)

The problem with "cape shit" is explicitly Disney. They sacrifice the last vestiges of art and integrity to keep the pipeline full of slop that happens to be easily digestible to those people who read at or below a primary school level.

Yes, although I am currently enjoying Daredevil: Born Again. Also, I thought that Andor was a superb series.
