Good Cop Bad Cop Once Removed

Two of my favorite comics of the last 10 years are both police procedurals set in a super hero world:

Powers by Bendis and Oeming and
Top Ten (and spin-off Smax) by Moore, Ha, and Cannon.

I just recently notice a major parallel between the two. Take a look at two sets of detective partners.

Deena Pilgrim and Christian Walker from Powers

Robyn Slinger and Jeff Smax of Top Ten and Smax


S may be the only person that finds this interesting.
