This just reminds me of a quote something like "the stories we tell says a lot about our values. The marvel movies are about superheroes who show up to save the world, then go back to their day jobs"

Ironman is at the top of society, and he sometimes uses his enormous influence to change it. Batman works from the outside in parallel to the police

Both of them primarily support the status quo. They aren't the rebellion, they're the guardians of the system. They appear when they are needed and do what they need to do before sliding back into their daily life
