right and wrong are subjective unless you are talking about math, and even then math is still subject to the particular math system (binary math can't have an answer of "2" for instance). so if you are trying to teach your kid YOUR version of right and wrong, than that is YOUR responsibility to do that. you could have me teach your kid about right and wrong, but you would probably disagree with a lot of my beliefs on such things.
I mean, Superman was created by a couple of guys named Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. And Captain America was created by a couple of guys named Jacob Kurtzberg and Joe Simon. Decades before the 60s.
Though it does say a lot that my first thought was "surely there's a decent Lord of the Rings comic adaptation". But I also would recommend Naruto, which is pretty violent, and the loving authority figures had a habit of not sticking around.
Harry Potter series is always a good start. The Dinotopia series is pretty amazing for kids. The Discworld series is pretty good as well.
As far as comics, I'm thinking maybe Elf Quest? If the classics like Spider Man and She-Hulk are no bueno. I got into graphic novels pretty young but they were horror, mainly, so I'm not a big help there.
I'm not very well read nor do I know what I'm talking about, but In my eyes it seems that sci-fi in general, specifically well-researched (well thought out? well informed? intelligent? not sure what to call it) science fiction by the likes of Douglas Adams tends to advocate a logic/reason based view that would serve anyone well.
It's not comic books, but the "Frog and Toad" illustrated book series "Mouse Soup" by Arnold Lobel were books I liked as a kid. Also the Stuart Little book series for kids. Those are from like 1990 but they are wholesome and nice.

Harry Potter is rife with SJW bullshit though

First off, this is for kids. You're reading into it as a grown up.
Second, it's make believe.
Third, where?

This is rich, coming from @HenryCorp.

The Secret Journey series was a big part of my life growing up. Huge.
This comic may possibly be nsfw. But the sun is already down where I'm at, so I'm willing to roll the dice.
