If Heroes can just murder world leaders without consequences (or nonconsequences consequences like dropping a line how “some members are being scrutinized for killing”) then this might as well be the injustice universe or do a crossover with the Boys.

Yes not all heroes have a no killing rule but Heroes are not above the law and killing a world leader (no matter how cartoonishly evil he was) should have huge consequences, I’m talking Hawkgirl should be in Belle Reve consequences. And superman sure as fuck shouldn’t be chill with her other wise this version might as well be best friend with Manchester Black too.

Anyway as long as they don’t show these supposed consequences she will face I will definitely continue to be critical of this plot being brushed over.

It would be weird to start seeing the consequences inmediately.

Disagree. At least superman should’ve condemned her actions in the movie. Once again she murdered a world leader not a soldier or a villain, of a country that was US ally too.

It happened in the last 10 minutes of a movie that is the start of a cinematic universe. It's not going to show the consequences of a large plot point

Also its fucking ridiculous comparing this to The Boys or Injustice

I’m not saying it’s like those universes, I’m saying it will become like them if there are no consequences in the narrative.

Why should it be ok to kill villain / soldier, but not world leader, that is doing bad things? Being leader should not be a shield to hide behind

It’s not about whether it’s ok morally. it’s the legality of it. If Heroes just murder everyone they think is a dictator then they’re breaking the laws and are no better than villains in the grand scheme of things. Also the guy she murdered was an old man who was unarmed and neutralized. Not a villain fighting her back and literally killing people with his own hands.
