I could be wrong, one of the people who made Powder was a pedo. There was a thread on FR.
Nevertheless, considering much of CW has a fascination with perversity, sex, violence, and pedophilia, it's no surprise that they can't bring htemselves to criticize the Toon.
He was a convicted sex offender. I just don't think he's a role model to anyone much less filmmakers. He's a non-entity.
