all art is related to the era it is created in …

especially if there is a commercial incentive to create it, because it needs to sell … and to sell stuff you need to follow the trends (or create the trends).

which is why we get a comic batman that is super silly in the 60’s and a dark and broody batman in the 90’s era Nolan movies
it’s why we got all those spiderman variants to begin with

yet more reasons why comics get rebooted every so often.
it’s not for the art, it’s for the money

and before all that there was the comic code that enforced censorship (which killed a lot of potential as ‘thought crime’ became an offense), which current companies do without having the law force them to because being seen as ‘clean’ is as important as it was previously.

Good art should cause offense.
