Yay, Killraven! Killraven ROCKS! And personally, I always figured Killraven as quite the other way. For one thing, because he, uh, had several girlfriends, or at least flirtations, and for another, anyone who can wear an outfit like THAT and still come off as macho as he does has to be pretty damn confident in his masculinity. There's a moment in 'the Spirit' that kind of supports what I'm saying. The Spirit is in a tough dive in Damascus - he's just come across what looks to be an abrupt dead end in his latest case, and needs to clear his head and think things through. So he summons a waiter, and asks for his preferred drink 'a nice tall glass of cool milk'. Well, this is a tough place frequented by tough men, so the waiter is at first startled then amused by this most unmanly-sounding order. He goes over to a neighboring table to jeer over it with a regular, which lasts about two seconds, until the Spirit grabs his throat and jerks him forward so they're face to face. "I said MILK!" he growls through gritted teeth. The waiter meekly squeaks assent, and hurries off. It's one of the character's more defining moments in my opinion, and more or less defines a central tenet of being a badass. That is to say, ANYONE can act badass when they look and act the part - the people you really want to look out for are the ones who are badass DESPITE the fact that they have markedly un-badass habits and modes of dress.
