I was at a party a few months ago and all of the attendees were asked if they sided with Batman or Superman. Out of over 100 people, I was the only one who sided with Supes. 

Why can't we seem to understand what makes Superman a good character? What's changed in the most recent adaptions to make him so...unrelatable? 

Check out my video essay on the subject:
