Still, no commitment. There's an expected level of sacrifice. How many has Lois Lane or Linda Park been in danger? How many dates have Bruce Wayne or Hal Jordan stood up? Heck Billy gave up a great relationship just to keep his secret identity FROM THE HEROES. Queen, Holt, lost their companies, their public image, their entire life outside the hero life. Aquaman and Wonder Woman have given up Their entire nation, their people, their nobility.

Take Adam Strange, he gave up his entire planet for the Hero life and a family. Only absolute loss as in planet (that allows him to be a true her)o's destruction, family's death, friends gone since he chose Rann, entire life on Earth having it's loose ends tied up so he can fully remove himself to Rann, only all that stops him from putting on the red and turning to the bottle. And that was only temporary! {finally got hands on Rann-Thanagar War:AWESOME}
