Harry's like Batman (and other comic book mayhem)

[JHyde]

Well, I just said something similar in a conversation with bertowud, so I might as well say it here. One of the things good comics and Spooks have in common is that the heroes aren't saintly and that the bad guys aren't always straight villains. I like narratives where the characters are more complex, because life and death decisions aren't always so clear cut.

So it's not such a far out comparison, Harry and Batman.
