So, basically, the stereotrope-ical 70s/80s Superwoman never died; it just fossilized into boringness like classical Superman.

I'm tired of seeing deconstructions of archetypes. Where are the reconstructions? What happened to things like Astro City?

The current light of civilization will be snuffed out, and the survivors, facing challenges not seen in Western societies since the latter half of the 1800s, will be forced to grow up and straight out fast.

That's not the light of civilisation being snuffed out, that's it stalling for a little while. It's hardly the Bronze Age collapse.
