Characters should be allowed to move on or retire imo.

The problem with the MC2 is that it highlights how stagnate the current universe is. If MC2 replaced the current universe, I would be fine, but it feels weird to have them together.

The problem is that it makes each individual world smaller.

It doesn't help that being part of a shared universe decourages aging as a whole.

The Dark Knight Returns in a nutshell

Heck, as writers, they can just make new characters for Superman to interact with.

I wouldn't since Superman has a lot of Superman-specific characters that can easily be used instead.

I'm not convinced he could do either tbh.

Aren't people that call Superman boring because he's perfect also from that same denominator?

I'm speaking from a Meta Perspective of course.

Arguably, this was done with Batman by recent interpretations making him a tortured soul or having an unhealthy social life despite being a skilled...

It's Tall Poppy Syndrome. Because Superman has been portrayed as "the best", he's especially susceptible to this trope.

With everyone else, they'll forever be reminded that no matter how good they...

Yeah, we can agree to disagree.

You can only be so cool when you're doing something that everyone expects of you. That's why Superman is often called boring when he's being a good guy or because he succeeds at being a good guy.

They're saying that this isn't an opinion at all.

Strangely, I agree with you. It's just that the relationships are between those in the respective hero's circle.

This is arguably why Superman/Wonder Woman is a bad ship. It makes Wonder Woman...

I would say that Arrow was best when he was just in his own universe.

All characters could benefit from being in their own universe since they'd be allowed to develop their own stories.

I like the TASM movies as well.

I felt like Peter was a bit too much of a pushover, but his personality wasn't that bad.

Does that mean that Boomerang and Gog were terrible additions to Peter's civilian life?

That's pretty much how scientists are treated in fiction.

They're constantly saving the world from problems that they themselves caused in the first place.

Ehh, not really. It's too cliche even if the writers do remember that Peter has martial arts skills.

Yeah, he did feel like a villain sue. They used every other villain sparingly.

2. I don't get the issue here. I guess you want it to be creepier to help emphasize how wrong it is, but nothing is lost by making Doc a kid in this scenario.

3. That's the difference between a...

That's what really annoys me when people talk about a "no-kill rule". It always feels like they miss the point of it. It just becomes moral posturing after a point.

I always find it funny how Superman isn't a good Superman unless he's imperfect. To me, it's just people looking for an excuse to ignore or denounce him.

It's probably the least interesting or cohesive of the modern shows. Yes, even lower than Ultimate Spider-Man.

Honestly they do glorify them by portraying them as normal. It just shows society isn't worth changing.
