The question is, do you want him to stay the same way and continue to be unsuccessful? Some readers might prefer that, but I bet the management at DC Comics doesn't. There's no money for them in an unsuccessful character.
I think he needs a different name and a different costume, and that he should lose about 12,000 of his powers. But if anyone has another idea to make him more popular besides "hire John Ostrander to write him," I'll certainly give it a fair hearing.
