Why is Superman not popular anymore? Most of the Capeshit movies these days are about Batman or Batman villains

>zoomers who have never seen Superman 1978

First post worst post

The thing that absolutely kills em about Superman is that what makes him a mary sue is literally just the fact that he's kryptionian. Like, he's not even special among his own kind,, he just happens to be the one that landed on earth.

And that means Krypton was a planet full of the most overpowered mary sues who ever lived, so...how did they go extinct again? One lone scientist can fire his newborn halfway across the galaxy but no one else on this planet of technologically advanced demigods thought to, you know, go towards the nearest yellow star and become superpowered and immortal? Like, ever? Why the fuck not? Was Jor-El the only one on the planet with half a brain? This drives me insane

Kids nowadays are all about Captain Marvel, and Black Panther

Man of Steel was legit amazing

Fuck no. Man of Steel utilizing Zod was God-tier. Could and should continue with Brainiac, Justice Lords, Syndicate of America

>he is boring
>he is a boy scout
>that mentality died in the 1950s
>he is too strong
>he is a gary stu
>he looks like shit.
>he is written inconsistently

Captain America will always be 1000 times better with no super powers.

Batman is a character for edgy teens with teen tier fantasies. OOoh I want no parents to tell me what to do, but also be RICH but also not have to work for it, and a BUTLER so I don't have to do any boring grown up shit. I don't want a GF or wife I want to date MODELS and shit and drive COOL CAAAARS omg yes but no superpowers cause that's UNREALISTIC instead I want to be the best at EVERYTHING ALL THE TIME, the smartest, most badass, most skilled YEAH heh, maaaaybe I'll joing a team but only if they be my bitches son! I would give eveyrone attitude and be like so dark and cool unlike all the other lame-o superfriends! I'm so mature!

Turns out the world is not made up of angry, edgy, frustrated incels.

>venom
>toe to toe with the juggernaut
bullshit

Because his historical origins are shit. He was literally written for children. Since then he’s been failed to be reinvented well. Unlike Batman who also started out like a fag.

no. Wolverine and then Batman. Superman stopped being number 1 around the 1980s.

Because until the end they all thought everyone was exaggerating and didn't take the crisis seriously, and Jor El was the only one who knew what was going to happen.

Now look at the current state of the world and some of the responses we've had from world leaders and governments and tell me it's exaggerated.

That whole comic is PIS bullshit.

Read and cry faggot

Literally no one cares about Wolverine anymore, as far as anyone is concerned Wolverine died in the last movie cause they are normies. The majority of the world doesn't know who Wolverine is. Yet you can walk to the poorest, most ignorant, shit-incrusted nigger in Africa and he would recognize Superman's symbol.

You answered most of your own questions. Krypton's gravity made space travel difficult, Jor-El was viewed a fringe conspiracy theorist for thinking Krypton's core was unstable, and the general populace likely didn't know their powers wouls expand under a yellow sun.

he got in some good punches and didnt instantly die so I guess thats pretty decent considering the jugs is pretty powerful. Also it was normal juggs not Trion or 8th day or whatever his power ups are called.

Jews hate morality so they shill against him.

true, third worlders are the ones keeping dc alive

I assume this was a retcon, but modern fluff is the gods of the DC universe literally made his planet and people specifically so that all of them would die except him because it was really tragic. They decided it would be extra tragic if all of them were amazing godlike people as well. Actually, I forget the details. But that's the gist of it. Yes, he's just a kryptonian, but kryptonians were created just to die so he could be the last, lonely survivor of an entire people. So he's actually extra super special.

He failed to keep up with the times. He can still be popular on his name like Mickey Mouse or Pikachu, but Batman gets people way more genuinely hyped.

Holding back your true power level is some homosexual ass dragonball shit.

>Everyone look at me, I am here to save the day with a smile and white establishment attitudes from the 1940s!

vs.

>my fucking family died and now I am going to rape the mafia

or

>no one understands me and I've dedicated my life to vengeance.

You can see how a guy from 1938 is not relevant to anything post 1980 right? Also DC wanted to suck supermans dick for years for some reason and make him not only strong but THE strongest, give him stupid ass new powers as he needed them and even went so far as to make him as fast at the Flash who's only power is to be fucking fast. Its bullshit and autistic. Thankfully now Flash is established with the Speed Force and confirmed faster than superman but back in the day Sups won a few races. Truth Justice and the American way no longer draw attention. Honestly the only reason Captain America has enjoyed so much popularity recently is because the John Wicks themselves have gotten stale over the last 35 years.

He's still popular as an icon. Of course they're going to keep more movies about him in the future, the DCEU is just in a weird state right now.

>Superman is a boring Mary Sue
t. someone who has never read a Superman comic

>Captain America
Always found his story pretentious and retarded. They desperately make you want to root for Steve Rogers for his bravery and determination despite his size. But then Steve is only taken seriously when he takes super steroids, he remains a nobody until he's big and good looking. In the end, moral of the story is you gotta be big in the end anyways so all that melodrama in the beginning was pointless.

Post a picture of yourself with timestamp, mr. fedora. I guarantee most teens look even more mature than you are. Batman is a retarded character who I dislike, but you MGTOW faggots are just as cringe.

Superman is too traditional and good for current year consoomer degenerates, they need DEEP manchild characters to latch onto as shows

You have to look at the historical context. He debuted in ‘37? Originally, he didn’t land in Smallville and immediately get adopted by Jonathan and Martha Kent. He was an orphan who grew up in an orphanage. Why? Because in a pre- Roe V Wade world there were a ton of orphans and they needed a hero- not only someone to believe could save them when no one else could but someone from the same humble origin they could aspire to be like. The role of art is to comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable. Now look at the flagship hero of the MCU under that light. Tony Stark is a capitalist war profiteer. Scenes from his movies borrow heavily from Atlas Shrugged (“You want the Iron Man suit- you can’t have it! It’s mine! The good news is I’ve privatized world peace.”) The message to modern audiences is an inversion of that same philosophy; it is comforting the comfortable. Tony Stark is the US military: he alone has the most powerful weapons/technology and acts as the world’s police and we are told by the narrative (and seem to agree) that that’s a good thing. America polices the world and that’s right because we’re the “good guys”. The reality is much more complex and nuanced but these movies purport a binary dichotomy of good and evil to reassure us we have nothing to doubt. Superman isn’t popular anymore because most people don’t need him the same way previous generations of youths did.

Hahahahahahah

All Might is a better Superman than Superman.

He's literally alien Moses and Jews invented the dual identity of superheroes and their alter egos because they identify with hiding their jewishness to infiltrate other people's societies.

my understanding is that GL Corps monitored the planet closely to keep the on world. Also the gravity was strong so leaving the planet was REALLY hard and too more tech than just a rocket. Like everyone who was a governoring galactic power wanted to keep everyone ON kyrpton because they knew how threatening they would be under a different sun. I ever suspect it was genocide but thats just want ive been told, I would never actually read a gay trans trash superman comic.

True

too american for todays foreign market
the only superheroes nowadays that can confidently make a billion per movie without a big team up are spider-man then maybe iron man and batman

Yes but those Jews were actual religious Jews which still exist today but are much rarer. The Jews of modern times are evil 99% of the time.

>so...how did they go extinct again?

Because for some mysterious reason, they evolved to become invincible godlike beings but only in conditions that don't exist on their planet. Which doesn't make any fucking sense.

Batman is a mary sue.

>Yes but those Jews were actual religious Jews
wut

DC is just boring apart from Flash

>A white fucking Junior Billionaire with privileged mommy and daddy issues exerting violence on poor folks instead of putting his money to help the poor is anymore less "white establishment" than Superman.

Pathetic.

>Why is Superman not popular anymore?
He just got voted as the most popular American Superhero yesterday,Retard

I’d say Kal-El is more like Michael or as his name was pronounced by Shuster and Siegel’s parents Mikhail “Mee-kai-el”, the angel sent to protect the Jews

> No superhuman abilities
> PTSD from losing his parents.
> No kill rule.
> Brooding loner with only few close friends.

Batman is far from Mary Sue.

go read the knight fall arc and come back when you grow up.

Money, a batman film only requires a few explosions maximum for vfx beyond his gadgets/armor and the car most of time . A superman film needs enough budget for him to toss a monster through 5 skyscrapers and still look good, and be profitable.

Sounds gay

Superman is literally created by jews The industry that made him popular are ran by jews. Stop being good goys, you're not being cool or masculine by liking a jewish fictional character. Oy vey!

>A scene where Luthor protects Clark from thugs but hes unaware that Superman is the one protecting him
Too wholesome for Hollywood

here is the analogy Ive been given.

>Superman arrests a dude for drugs
>Batman tries to help the dude turn his life around.

Jews solelt in name/ethnicity are different from ones who actually believe.

nah man its like when an elephant licks some toad's eyeball and the elephant's entire insides turn to pizza sauce instantly
not cuz the toad evolved to obliterate elephants but because it evolved to kill some shit that then evolved resistance to its poison so it had to get stronger poison and so on until its poison instakills anything EXCEPT the one thing it evolved to protect against

he's too perfect and boring...

THIS

and you're just discovering this now? nearly every superhero was created by a Jew, this has been a very widely understood thing ever since comics were a popular platform
fucking 15 year old Yas Forumsfaggot

I always thought it was

>Superman saves people during the day
>Batman beats the shit out of mobsters at night

Who gives a fuck what people in a village know?

Ask 1000 random cunts on the street "Who's your favourite superhero?" hardly anyone will say Superman. Batman, Spider-man, Iron man and probably a bunch of other marvel heroes are more popular especially with each passing younger generation.

>>Batman tries to help the dude turn his life around.

By breaking his legs and putting him in the cell next to the Joker.

As opposed to Superman grew up on humble farm in Kansas of all places. Most powerful being in the universe went to public rural school, then came home to help his pa with them bales of hay. He was an unpopular geek in school and was bullied. Girls wouldn't give him the time of day. Then he moved and got a JOB. The most powerful man ever works an 8-5. He pays bills. He has an apartment. He sends money back home to his parents which he keeps up with and he loves. He likes only one (1) working class girl, who initially doesn't give a fuck about him.

And in this life of work and toiling, when people need him he rips that shirt open and reveals the Superman.

Superman is the fantasy for the grown fucking man. Batman is the fantasy for the manchild. People who enjoy a Superman story will always have a higher IQ than batfags who are infamous throughout all fandom because of how shit whiny babies they are.

if you knew about superman's inspiration this isn't news

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zishe_Breitbart
superman was based on jewish strongman

He just won a contest, can't any of you fucking retards READ?

Why the fuck don't they just make Man of Steel 2 with Snyder and Cavill? Does it NEED to make a billion dollars in profit instead of two or three hundred million?

>according to a single survey session in a theme park
newsarama.com/49393-superman-is-the-most-popular-superhero-in-america-but-marvel-beats-dc.html

That's a retarded thing to cite, but of course Supes will always be the most popular superhero. You don't need a poll taken by literal whos that don't even represent the majority of the population determine that.

I always try to remain objective and not generalize a group of people, but damn if the batman-lovin' superman-hatin´ camp make it really difficult to not label them as "edgy faggots".

You've never read a comic book in your life. More like

>Batman kidnaps a kid, likely rapes him, then endangers his life irresponsibly eventually getting one of his pets killed, then rinses and repeats, all the while leaving muggers hospitalized and disable for life while letting the Joker free to kill thousands.

I'm a zoomer, I work with zoomers, all my friends my zoomers. Trust me, younger people just don't give a fuck about Superman.

superman is better off batting for the villain's side since he has like a gorillion superpowers

KEK

Man of Steel sucked though.

>Awful filter, lighting and color
>Dull, depressing and no humor at all
>Bad acting (apart from Zod), bad writing
>Boring af action, they knock each other through 50 skysrapers and not a scratch? Where's the tension?

>leaving muggers hospitalized and disable for life
baaaaawwwwwwww

Batman, while having no powers, is immediately, through the power of shitty writing, capable of beating anyone and anything ever no matter how powerful they are, because "I'M BATMAN"

Yes, he's more of a mary sue than fucking Rey.

The first rule about dealing with zoomers is, don't ever believe what a zoomer says.

>>Awful filter, lighting and color
How can anyone take this seriously? You niggers don't know shit about color.
