Kent is Protestant Man and Wayne is Catholic. The analogies aren't perfect, but that's the way I've always perceived the two characters, even as a youngster. Kent (the earthbound Kent) has rural roots; he's all mom and apple pie. Wayne is urban to the core; his fidelity is to principle rather than sweet Norman Rockwell images. - James the Least Fri, 07 Nov 2008 07:52:30 +0100
