Charles had wished he could have done more with his abilities, but the fight had finished almost quickly as it began. This made him annoyed and his eyes began to flash a bright red and the electricity in the base began to flicker from the influince of his magic powers. He hoped that they would eventually get a real challenge so that he could use his powers to their true capabilities. He soon came across Guardian Angel and the dark powers within him seemed to shiver in disgust at the feeling of the good positive energy. She looked to be looking for someone and Charles wondered whop. "Where are you going?" he asked and his powers were making his body fee weird as it felt restless from being in close vicinity of the angel like girl.
Can I join?
Are ocs allowed?
Sorry about the wait for a response, can I still make a character?
If everyone is confused then I say we time skip so that things can get back on track
I find superman is very relatable, he grew with an honest background, his parents weren't rich, he was adopted and he works an average job. It's funny because superman could work almost any job if he chose to but he chose an more average job as a reporter. In a sense Superman is going against the norm that we all have to be over achievers which in my opinion is a serious problem that society has. Superman is symbol that we don't need to be billionaires or over achievers to do good.
Oh, yeah, definitely. My emphasis on how different he is one reason why he's so easy to relate to. He seems like a run-of-the-mill average Joe, but what makes him great is the stuff he hides from others (and from himself early on). And I think a LOT of people are like that. I like to think I'm like that. He's just relatable all around, even in his difference.
He also an allegory for the immigrants who came to America and made the country better
Exactly! That's why I think he's so important as a character. The importance of his diversity is lost in American culture, and it's a great allegory for immigrants and outsiders who struggle to fit in when they (and the rest of the society) need to learn how valuable different can be. There is strength in diversity and everyone has something to offer no matter their origins--or rather because of their origins.
You're totally right, that's the problem with American culture today, we're so snobby and stuck up about what is valuable and are always trying to follow the crowd because someone else tells us what's cool and not cool.
You're such a troll. Well screw you and your bias and incorrect facts
You say this so often that I'm starting to think you're actually a chatbot.
Nope just taking out the trash
I love, love, loooooove Superman. I'm not surprised by the general dislike of him, though, haha. He is relatively dull and generic to many of the superheroes who have the spotlight today. In fact, in addition to what's already been said, Captain American is another favorite of mine who's similar in a lot of ways, but just done better. And, to be honest, my love for Superman is more of a nostalgia thing for me since my father really liked the superhero. As for my answer, I'm not even sure how I would go about the actual story itself, but ever since getting into anthropology, I've headcanoned Superman as dark skinned. I mean, he's all about the sun and using the sun's energy and, evolutionary speaking, dark skin is a result of really sunny conditions. Plus I like the contrast it adds to the pale, brooding, under-the-moon superhero Batman. I do know that anything I would write about him would emphasize his struggles to accept himself as Kryptonian / not human. I'm more interested in what's going on in a character's head than how many bad guys he's beating up.

This one scene is incredibly powerful and really shows how great of a person superman is, even though he's an alien he's more human than most of us.

I won't be able to post until tonight
Charles was surprised by the speed of which his ghouls where taken down and he was annoyed by the scumbags for doing that. he chanted a dark spell and horrifying specters materialized out of the ground and fly towards the bad guys giving wails and shrieks giving off intense waves of sheer terror. "I will see that you criminals feel true fear!" he shouted as his eyes glowed a bright red as his magic began to go out of control and the ground began to shake from his chaos magic.
