This. Johns made a point to say he's an antagonist, not a villain.

His proportions are off

What difference?

Because when you do the sort of things he did and you are in the DC universe, you're a villain.

It probably means he'll have good intentions for what he's doing

if you make a play about Hitler (let's call it Springtime for Germany?), an historically-accurate Hitler mind you, he is the protagonist, and the Allies are the antagonists.

The protagonist is not always the moral center of the story.

Antagonists are not necessarily bad or evil. They simply oppose the protagonist, even if said protagonist is a good guy.

why did he kill pandora?

>>83662539
Because she's shit

>>83662394
Because Geoff Johns likes to do inappropriate things with untouchable continuity.

>oh yeah, well i'm gonna have a silver age pre-crisis superboy kill golden age pre-crisis superman, and there's nothing you can do about it!
