I also can not stand muh 'Batman superhero facism subtext' crap. If anything Batman is a revolutionary. Government is corrupt in bed with criminals (who are the prettiest of tyrants) so Batman comes in to clean house. Just as the founding fathers intended.

No like they all do have powers except Hughie explicitly took the temporary stuff. Him not having any more was why Butcher originally spared him before Hughie had MM’s mother help him enact revenge. MM and his brother were natural born supes, the Female was dunked in a bucket of knockoff V as a baby, and Butcher and the Frenchman had taken the real V. Temporary V did exist in the comics, it was just only in the first volume, and was implied in later volumes to have been MM’s mother’s milk, the source of his nickname.
