And yes, Don't-Be-That-Guy Guy, that includes real life. Likewise "Sweet Christmas!" works if and only if Luke Cage is saying it. Any other work around is just going to be universally silly sounding.

What parent is going to be upset by the swearing of all things in that book? Didn't Batman get his swerve on with Black Canary on a dock, five minutes after they met?

I'm guessing the Initiative? I'm happier with the black bars than the Beetle Bailey method, even if I think Frank Miller and ASBAR are pretty childish to begin with - and I mean childish for superhero comics, mind you.

It's probably less annoying for me to see them inventing fictional slang than using authentic slang incorrectly, especially if it's old slang.
