[quote=@Dnafein] Actually one of the biggest things that bug me about Superman is the fact that its pretty common knowledge in the DCU that he is an alien. Especially after the various invasions by other of his species (Brainiac, Zod, and Doomsday for example) as well as other aliens who have publicly identified him as a kryptonian. The reason it bugs me is the lack of realism to it. The world knows he's an extra terrestrial, they even know his partially at fault for some of those invasions. Yet the majority worship him, while those who publicly state a mistrust of his alien nature (Luthor for example) are publicly ostracized. Marvel does it better; Take mutants for example, the majority of them caused no harm to the masses, they were simply different. Yet the masses feared and hated them for those differences. Its a more realistic, and sadly human, response. You are mistaken. Clark Kent has the memeworthy honor of no one knowing he's superman and thus an alien. Superman however has had his origin sited in news reports. There is technically a difference.
