The problem is that they didn't know their planet was going to explode. They didn't believe Jor-El.

oh! That sucks! Anyway, we can change the story! Hey, they're doing so with spiderman and the avengers and all kinda heroes! That's why Superman 2 was really the best movie out there till spiderman came along though the ending sucked like a water melon when he revealed himself to every Tom, Dick and Harry!

Supes had competition and needed cunning! They should have a nemesis like that for superman who's a bit dumber!

OTHER SUPERMAN WHO COULD CREATE HAVOC ! That'd give supes more hard choices to make and we could see super battles! That's why they killed him off! No competition!
He needs somebody just as strong as him or maybe two or three. That increases the intrigue to make the story more challenging! See what I mean? Like Neo in Matrix when he was outnumbered! oR THE WARRIORS with the guy with the ring in Lord of the rings! When it seemed they'd won the battle, another more challenging obstacle came up (the huge elephants with warriors on them with arrows!) that made the viewer wonder how the heck are the warriors going to win!

But with supes, it's like 'oh we know he's going to win cus it's Supes! It takes the suspense away! Dig?

IT'S ALRIGHT MR 1983, I dont mean anything personal. It's all business not personal. I know it's all published in the USA by Usains but I wish they could be more inventive now as they sell in Ireland and the UK and Europe and Asia and Africa and South America. If they talk about the UN and all, they can have more diverse heros. That;s why I siad Chinesse and they dont have to live in China! I'd love to see a Super Lee comic book about Bruce Lee's grand nephew who becomes blessed with super natural powers and speed to help his kunfu skills and is being hunted by his great grandad's killers from China. He might have adamantum skelenton and loads of weapons and work for the FBI.

Maybe an Irish Punisher like dude from the former IRA who wants to spread peace by taking out hoodlums like DareDevil. So many new ideas that can make it more global! I did an MBA and was just wondering about globalization!

It's not about race! If Superman's people (maybe 4 or 6) survived somehow and were on a space journey when their planet exploded, then we could have more supermen! Come off it, if they were so advanced than us, couldn't they have had space voyages before the planet exploded?

Realistically, if we on Earth knew our planet was gonna blow up, wouldn't we be trying to get people to the moon or Mars?


speaking as an irishman who believes in a republic, the last thing we need is an IRA based hero or villain... stick out tongue

but darkcrawler is right, nobody believed jor-el until it was too late...

but to be honest i'd rather have them make new characters interesting and deep, be they white, black, asian, whatever...

and imo the one thing superman needs is new writers, there's a ton of potential but all the writers do is play it safe...

no offense dami, but reading ur posts SERIOUSLY hurts my head.....some of the jargon and lingo i simply can't get...

IMO, the characters that were created should stay the way they are. C'mon...American writers created their American icons so why are you so surprised they look the way they do? If for instance, they remade Journey of the West with the Monkey King being a white dude, how would you feel about that?
And before judging DC's iconic characters, shouldn't you brush up your knowledge of them first? Find out who Steel is before suggesting "Superman be black or asian or purple or....etc"--you get my point.

nah, CUS I'M BIASED LIKE MANY OF THE FOLKS THAT VISIT THIS SITE! I AM MARVEL AND MARVEL only!. Superman had no equal and nobody could beat him! Just because he was the first superhero to be commercially successful! Big deal, if they hadn't created him in the early 20th century, others would have come along! Whatever race or color or country!

Hence that stuff of him being indestructable! Anyway, how many American films are sold worldwide? Music and all? iF THEY CAN SELL STUFF WORLDWIDE and now have a President that's willing to risk American lives for the sake of DEMOCRACY, then what the heck are you saying bub? I dont have to read this new stuff cos the idealogy is still the same! You dont like my tread? Dont read it! I'm not dissing anybody just asking why! You dont learn if you dont ask!

The world's changing and so should old ancient ideas! America is full of all races and colors as seen in the US Army dude! Go check it out! I still haven't seen a WHITE FEMALE AMERICAN President yet other countries have had them in the pursuit of DEMOCRACY! Even Britain and that Islamic country PAKISTAN! Yet they talk of democracy? Till they have a White female American President (Black or White or Whatever after that) talkless of having a Chinesse or Hispanic or Black or American Indian President, there's something missing in that Democractic image! Get my drift? If you dont like my thread go put yours up and see how it's recieved to.
This is a chat line BUB! Deal with it or go somewhere private and smoke a joint to chill you down! Nothing personal! Get a life!

Comic books are one of the last safe havens for imagination and creativity that are not dominated by political correctness. Please dont take that away.

yeah I get you! Wish I could start my own comic book! Rebels reborn it would be called! God bless the world and not only America!

The world's a beautiful place and all races should unite cus there are aliens out there and one day, they shall invade, and then, there might not be so much fuss about race cos the ruling power wont be human!

dude... having a woman president for the sake of pc'ness is wrong...

if they're the best for the job then fine...

being black or asian or latino does not give you a divine right to have a presidency...

and just so you know...

ireland has had two consecutive female presidents...

read x-men, mutants are the minority in that comic, and they're the heroes...

lol..couldn't have put it better myself.

And Dami, you never commented on my suggestion to revamp Journey to the West and make the characters a different ethnicity. What about Robin Hood? Or any other iconic characters? We're simply talking comics here--I believe they should stay the way they were created, or if they are going to make them different, they should give them a new name. But apparently, you wanna go debate about politics in this world of comics. Wrong forum to do that.....bub. cool
