    The Superman problem. Main sources of conflict tend to involve depowering, fighting another godlike, or threatening people they care about. Over and over again.

      The problem is that even Superman deconstructions get shat on. Snyder tried to do something different but everyone wanted a hokey silver age comic supes

        Snyder’s films were crap tho, and he didn’t understand the characters - you can’t deconstruct Superman and Batman if you don’t understand Superman and Batman. Plus the lighting and pacing were awful. That’s why they got shat on
