Well, I think the best way to approach Mitch is that he's perceived as suicidal because he's often trying for a better super power. By the time he has one he likes, Mitch has built up a reputation as bring a crazy guy who doesn't value life; so people shoot first due to fear that his actions may kill them too.

That's a fine approach, but it is not the way it was addressed in the comics. Really, this could have been a great idea if he didn't die every single issue--it took Snyder a year to tell his first Batman arc--no reason why Mitch couldn't last a year before dying.
