Good article. Yeah things need to be changed and updated otherwise iron man would be an anti Russian propaganda movie like the comic was for a while. Also Superman's truth justice and the American way is ridiculous in this day and age. Even Americans now realize there are other ways. I actually think comics nowadays have never been better and the more they update the old characters the better. As in dcs new 52. They should do a shared DC universe based exclusively on that.

Superman has one of the worst comic book origins ever and it shows in how the character has been handled on both tv and in the movies. Do we ever get to see him taken to the orphanage where baby Clark lifts a big chair over his head and waves it around? Of course not, it would ruin the story since no orphanage would just hand over such a child to anybody. They would most likely contact some government agency and he would become an experiment. Writers have been trying to alter the Superman origin story for decades and whenever it was adapted to tv or as a movie the origin would be largely ignored other than being shipped to Earth from an exploding planet.

Smallville is the only attempt to give Superman an acceptable origin and it took 10 years to straighten out everything. Spider-Man, Batman, they are pretty straightforward as far as origins go. It's not too difficult to say so and so became such because someone important to them was killed and they feel obligated to do something. Just throw in some insanity (in the case of Batman) or selfishly used super abilities (yes, Spiderman) and you got yourself a superhero.

From different runs anf stuff. But I would love to.see an article from you on thor or any other character.

Thank you everyone for reading! I'm glad this article was both enjoyable and informative. I plan on doin some more in the future, starting with Thor. If not tonight, tomorrow.
