See, my issue with this is that if you *really* consider comics, the healer and debuffer classes are nigh-nonexistent, and the mezzing types are universally

I'm not sure if the mez types are of a higher power level so much as melee types (and many squishies) do not all automatically have mez resistance; indeed
it's a time-honored tradition in comics to mez the powerhouse who cannot be stopped any other way.
If you include debuffers for whom it is a secondary effect or minor ability rather than a focus power (say, Iceman using cold to weaken armor, or Batman using
a flashbang) I think you'll find more debuffers than buffers or healers, but I agree with the point: I can't think of a single character whose
signature power is a debuff off the top of my head.
