Who ever said they were the evil ones? they are just following orders. Henchmen get no respect. ... Okay I get your point, but he as a hero, knock them out, disarm them, he doesn't have to kill them.

No he doesn't. Wolverine is not Superman. Not every hero is the same. You don't like the Wolverine, Punisher, Nightwing style hero, I get that. In fact that is why Nightwing exists. Robin/Nightwing and Batmn disagreed on how to handle the criminals. Batman wanted to keep catching them and locking them up in Arkham. Robin/Nightwing wanted to take them out so they would stop escaping and killing innocent people. Sparing the villian does not always make you the hero. Neither does killing the villian. There are pros and cons to each hero type.
As for you first point, following an unjust order makes you just as if not more culpable as the person giving the order. I have friends in the military. If their C.O. tells them to assault a school and they are dumb enough to do it. They are going to court marshalled and sent to Leavenworth.
