You got that right, because the gunshop owner was clearly terrified by Superman in the scan itself. Not to mention, that was a homage to Golden Age Superman i.e. Superman (1939) Issue #8:

Speaking of Xmen, used to like Jubile in the cartoon. When did they ruin her with the vampire shite?
They "ruined" her first by depowering her and great many other mutants when M-Day happened, as Mungi said.
She joined New Warriors, got herself a power suit w/ superhuman strength and called herself Wondra.
Now that was lame and unoriginal. The vampire shit happened later and was a massive improvement over that.
Also, she's back to normal.
You really need to get anally gangraped, cd.

Yet Batman who everyone knows has rules is?
Imagine your five year old is out of insulin, your insurance lapsed and you're unemployed. You snatch a purse to buy her meds and... BOOM! You wake up two days later with a concussion and snapped femur. Now go mass murder some shit. You'd be perfectly safe from the bat. He'd send you for a psych eval and dip off. **** the Bat.
Compared to Marvel, nobody in DC is actually "intimidating"
Superman Being damn near the most powerful person in existence and a 1950's yokel has always been stupid to me.

Sure, but you coud say the same thing about any other DC superhero or even Marvel ones.Comics and movies often support that very same theory.
Which leads us to the nukes that were used in Kingdom Come. And even that didn't solve the problem, not permanently.
No...In Gotham, even normal criminals proliferated in his presence. In Marvel, regular crooks often make a point to say they're leaving NY cuz of too many heroes. We aren't talking metas. Obviously they aren't intimidated. They're ****ing nuts
Real life New York has become quite safe, according to many sources --- sure, it took a lot of time, but it has.
In Marvel, Punisher tells readers to forget about the "new" New York and shows us it's still crime-infested.
Daredevil is known for guarding just one neighbourhood and it's always trouble there.

😂 The heck does "real life" have to do with this. Nothing. However, Since covid crime has actually skyrocketed and a lot of the richest gentrifiers have left. (350k by last count)
And back to comics, this isn't 1996. Punisher and DD fight more metas than ever. Punisher: War Journal stopped being a thing long ago.
Crimes and threats will always emerge in superhero comics. Because writers need to create conflicts and inevitably more and more villains/threats will be created to challenge the hero as time goes
I dont think "the hero failed because there are too many villains around" is a good argument. Because this is an inevitable problem when you writing a no-ending story.
