Comic Characters <> CoX Archetypes

I really wish people would stop trying to show how comic book character X is CoX Archetype Y, because it's never true.

The CoX Archetypes have qualities and limitations set by the game environment, with things like balance served foremost. Comic book characters are created with no limitations other than imagination and the needs of the story. They are completely and utterly different.

For example, is Wolverine a Scrapper? Explain the Tanker-like survivability then?

Superman a Tanker? Explain the Scrapper-like damage?

Comic characters <> CoX Arcthetypes. Stop trying to make the comparison, there are none to be made.
