There seriously needs to be more stories about homeless or struggling heroes. It seems ripe with potential but never truly sticks.

>>33541 No. Science Fiction required you to suspend your disbelief in that "we haven't done it yet, but we might be able to". Not "it's complete capeshit garbage". Gay superheroes aren't Science Fiction no matter how hard you masturbate to them.
>>33554 You might be able to do anything. There are plenty of science fiction explanations for telekinesis that just involve things like energy/particle fields that we haven't learned to detect or manipulate yet. It makes just as much sense as a warp drive in Star Trek, because it's all bullshit anyway. Yes, some sci-fi is "harder" than others, but it's all bullshit on the level you're complaining about. Again, it's about how far down the suspension of disbelief is. Would you be happier with the original explanation that Kryptonians were just plain more evolved, and there was no autism about sunlight or telekinesis to explain their powers? It's less masked in pseudoscience, but in a way, simplicity can make it more believable just because it doesn't ask you to think about it very much.

The thing I've always loved about Superman is the same thing I've always loved about Captain America: they never give up, they stand up for the defenseless, and their values and morals are from a better time. Superman has been depowered many times, but he's never stopped doing what was right. When the writers decide to "deconstruct" him or nerf his powers, he somehow manages to overturn their bullshit and ends up as powerful as ever. He's a good egg.

>>33347 Lightheartedness wasn't the problem. It was the political soapboxing & quirky writing. Which Waid Daredevil & Hawkeye definitely pushed in different ways. Really Marvel comics were on the decline since Civil War.
>>33339 >>33348 Disney will be just a bad memory well before they elect Spread Eagle as president.
>>33348 Just rest easy knowing that they're redpilling more and more people with every piece of propaganda they produce.
