I vote lawful Neutral for Ozymandias

SeattleTransAndNonbinary ChoralEnsemble

Imo Spider-Man is neutral good - he doesn’t fight on behalf of society and order, and has been bullied and rejected so doesn’t readily trust, but ambivalence isn’t complete alienation to the point of giving up on fitting in and being a good citizen. Same with the Hulk. Someone who is chaotic good is a renegade, vigilante, or antihero - often hated or pushed out of society for being unconventional, don’t care about what others think of them, anarchistic or even sometimes misanthropic, only grudgingly ally themselves with police or military, and more than willing to break the law if that law is immoral. They stand up for what is morally right and enjoy fighting an unjust society to do so. Unlike chaotic neutral, who will choose their own self interest over helping another person, chaotic good people are willing to sacrifice themselves for the sake of humanity. So, Batman, Hellboy, Wolverine, Robin Hood, Green Arrow, Hawkeye, The Maxx, Spider Jerusalem, Spawn, and (arguably since they could also be considered neutral or evil) The Punisher or Lobo are more what I would think of as Chaotic Good.
