I see people thrown upon Superman saving cats from trees because, I don't know, it's not "cool" enough or something. But to that I say, what's wrong with Superman saving a cat from a tree? Here's a guy with these extraordinary powers, and what does he do? He puts on a pair of long johns, and flies around helping anybody he can in any way he can, no matter how big or small. That's Superman!
See, we're not meant to relate to Superman. We're meant to aspire to be Superman. To help our fellow man when the need arises. To do the right thing at all costs. Superman's a shining example; a beacon of hope, truth and justice mankind will always strive towards. But we are meant to relate to Clark Kent, and I'll be damned if anybody here can say they can't.
... unless we're speaking about this version Clark Kent, because he's barely a character. They've spent all this time developing Superman into this sociopath with a god complex, and none on developing Clark into an actual person. See, they haven't made him relatable. On the contrary, they've done the exact opposite. They've made him alien - and what's frightening is, they don't even realize it.
