Wee Hughie kept having some guy send bloody ejaculatory under his door.

What did the show neuter, aside from apparently a rape scene? Any specific scenes you're thinking of?
Cos Hughie 's girlfriend being turned into red goop was gore, landlord eating out she-wolverine's asshole and then getting his head ass-crushed was gore.
The first issue has a woman becoming a blood stained spot on the ground after a speedster superhero accidentally runs into her, and Butcher's dog rapes another dog.
[SPOILER - highlight to read]: They cut away when she's hit. They show blood going all over the place, but it isn't nearly as grisly as the comic.

Check out "Irredeemable" too. Hell read "Invincible" too if you haven't.

It's funny, for a guy who hates superheroes so much, he wrote one of the best portrayals of Superman ever(Hitman issue #34), and that had a lot to do with the immigrant experience and assimilation as well.
The more I see of it, the more it looks like it's hijacking Ennis's brand to criticize show business.
I mean, the sexual harrassment totally happened, but the "points" haggling for shares, the hypersexual outfits, the engineered public image.. Those are details the comic never went into.
