Right? It's a story about an immigrant super hero written and illustrated by the children of the Jewish diaspora.

Edit: to be clear, it should be obvious that it's not supposed to be the story of a fascist ubermensch.

We've been going through decades of Superman mostly just being a super god beyond the king of ultra-super gods while occasionally pining after a lost kingdom and race that he can't retvrn to, so I think a lot of the original concept is functionally lost in pop culture except on the most superficial level, and that's speaking of the comic books. In the movies, there's much less of the original legacy to start with and things sometimes get changed to make the message or at least the emotional logic of the story wildly more fascist (like Thanos getting a nonsensical eco-fash motivation to be more sympathetic, even if he's still supposed to be very evil).

Not just an immigrant, but - gasp - a refugee!

If your civilization collapses on the sight of two man kissing, it deserves to be salted and thrown into the dust bin of history

one lesbian with wings

Does OP mean hawkgirl? Because hawkgirl is canonically in a heterosexual relationship. It's one of the main points of her character that she is destined to be with a dude.

Honestly their souls just need to be reincarnated and fall in love, gender can change in reincarnation in most religions right? Now I want the comics to give us a look at either a same sex Hawks, or the souls in the opposite gender. A woman born with Katar Hol's soul and a man born with Shayera's soul.

Pretty sure Superman didn’t arrive from Krypton with the proper documentation.

I would actually go to those movies if I could get a seat behind the screen, facing the audience.

Nothing is stopping you from taking a seat in the front and turning around
