    No he is not, what year are y'all living in man?

    The two most popular superheroes in the world in the past 25 years have been Batman and Spider-Man, everyone else is far below them

    Superman has been getting the "boring" tag for more than a decade at this point i dont know why people think superman as a character is as popular as Spiderman or batman. Sure he's as iconic as them but that doesnt translate to sales, even comic sale wise superman is far behind batman and Spiderman

    Exactly.

    He's just as iconic as them, but nowhere near as popular as them anymore

    This is iconography, not popularity

    Batman and Spider-Man have had countless films, shows, games, and comic runs that were massively popular in the 21st Century. What has Superman had since 2000? Smallville?

    And yet niggas still think of him first when making their rap songs because he is what most niggas born before 2005 think of when you even hear the word superhero lol

    WB fumbling his media properties for 30 years not changing that is again more of a testament to how solidified he is or at least was in that spot before the 2010’s

    its becaue he is op. How do you relate an op character to people. I think the movie overall would be better with no justice gang and focus on superman for me. I dont think the "he inspired other heroes" story was done that well when the heroes still kill the prime minister after killing the monster in the city.

    That doesn't make him more popular than Spider-Man and Batman in the 21st Century

    To take it back to the original thing lol it absolutely isn’t crazy for them to want a Superman movie run that is as beloved as McGuire/Holland/Bale/Battinson

    They inspire the JG to get involved in the conflict not inspired them to be exactly like. For them to completely change their character in 1 day would of been lazy compared to the incremental change

    You’re arguing how well Warner Bros and DC has handled Superman since 2000 and I’m arguing how people who don’t give a f*** about comics, comic book movies, Bruce Timm etc view Superman lol

    Which is ironically the point

    Isn't that the consequences that was supposed to play out in MOT ?

    "superman inspired them to save a nation they just kill a prime minister in the process"

    brother they were inspired enough to kill a monster in the city already

    they know the value of saving people and earlier in the movie he shakes his head at them killing a monster and they are fighting eyeball monster for them

    is it really that inspiring that they are willing to step up when humans are being monsters to one another?What is the poitn of the justice gang if they dont want to do that

    Consequences in man of tomorrow yes likely but then hawkgirl likely gets more consequences than lex who is forgiven for a team up to fight braniac. a lantern forgives a cop for murdering someone.

    you see how consequence and justice in this universe is kind of handled oddly. S***trafficker killed at least but then supergirl leaves space and the problem fully solved ?

    So you're saying they recognize the character but don't know anything about him?

    Absolute Superman was outsold by both Absolute Batman and Ultimate Spider-Man in the year all three debuted
