Outlish [1] says that Ian Alleyne (the TV host suspended for airing footage of a child being sexually assaulted) “thinks he's Batman” but that “his story has more parallels with Booster Gold’s”, explaining: “Any champion for the people, super hero or non-super hero, can never let his cause be about him. The very nature of his mission requires that he strip personal pride, and not seek praises…a champion for the people goes about conducting missions, with humility, compassion, and grace.”
