Place the setting in 1930s-1950s America, tell stories that lean heavy towards the optimism of the American Dream and "freedom for all," and use villains whose primary motivators are petty revenge (Penguin's gonna get Batman this time!), megalomaniacal desire for power (Hydra wants to win WW3), or vast amounts of non-liquid wealth (aka, Lex Luthor stealing all the gold from Fort Knox, brainwashing all the rare animals in a jungle sanctuary, etc).

Limit sci-fi tech and related concepts to that era's understanding (radiation doesn't make you sick, it gives you superpowers; a society of ice-men lives around the frozen core beneath the waves of Neptune) and take things at face value, with a positive spin, as if shaking a man's hand is just as good as a legally binding contract. Heroes always maintain moral high grounds within the eyes of the law and society, villains are all cowards at heart.

Do not think deeply about anything. Pretend as if the stories you tell are being told for the absolute first time; no one's had enough experience with them to start trying to deconstruct them.
