>>82782100>Fuck all that not a character but a symbol>shit like that only works for mini-series or short else-worlds.I'm inclined to agree with this. You can't sustain a long-form story on that kind of thing. You have to make Superman/Clark a person, defined by who he is and where he's from.
He's a Kansas Farm boy. He's an alien refugee aware of his heritage, but never having truly been raised in it, except for scraps. He's a bit of a dork. He's a guy who loves a girl.
Trying to make him God is all well and good, as long as you have some specific story to tell about that thematically, but you can't maintain a reader's interest for an ongoing series about an ideal God.
