Superman Sucks.
http://blog.beerandcomics.com/ 2008/ 04/ 15/ superman-sucks/
I make no secret that I’m not the biggest fan of Superman. I’m a Batman guy, and probably always will be. Bam! Kapow! ran this piece recently - Why Superman Will Always Suck. (Thanks to Ish for the link) That said, I don’t ALWAYS hate him. As this article points out, Superman fits best in stories when Batman is kicking the crap out of him. Basically, Bam! Kapow! makes the following points: Indestructibility is boring. Moral absolutism is only cool when Rorschach does it (and then only because he’s kind of insane) Superman can’t really claim right-wing American values when he’s from another planet.
