good amount of people bringing up DCEU Polka Dot Man 1. It bums me out how many people read the word “comics” and immediately go to movie 2. Yes they made him powerful but the larger point here is they can’t be genuine with it. Have to have characters point out he’s stupid first

I remember not long ago Mark Waid said some sentiment like “Kent’s being alive infantilizes Clark” and I was like “that’s dramatic dude” and then the discourse like two weeks later was if Clark really believed in Santa wrapped his gifts.

This is a huge part of Superman’s appeal to me. Not just because it’s wholesome or whatever but because I think there’s so much value in a perspective that micro and macro are connected and everything and everybody matters.

Thinking about Superman’s no lying rule. May seem sillier than the no kill rule but both are based self awareness he is Superman and therefore he has to be held at an absolute higher standard. He ties into the interesting thing not being fights but what you do with power.
