When a group of players click and the posts keep roling in, that's what GM dreams are made of.

We're roleplayers, of course we're going to make a third option the GM didn't present.

The GM should know exactly why each character was or wasn't accepted and be willing to state such. But the reality is that sometimes other characters/players just synergize better

Limited slots and character applications exist as a way for the GM to manage their cast, maintain consistency and try to achieve mutual enjoyment for those involved.

Episode 1 is currently waiting on @Simple Unicycle for our collab. Otherwise I'm waiting for a few of the others in Training Day (Episode 3) to post before moving it along.
@Lord Wraith To be fair, unless a hero comes around that can basically cream Superman with him having almost no hope of winning WITHOUT using kryptonite, AND said hero becomes as mainstream as Batman/Superman/WW/Cyborg/ext while also being countered by one or two of those heroes as hard as they counter Superman, Superman is just a better villain than a hero. Hes just too strong otherwise.
Marvel is way better at hero balance than DC. You could lose Superman from DC and not lose much, and infact everything would be better as heroes would counter heroes and such and no hero would feel so super domineering in-universe as it does now. Sure Batman would still be top billing, but people are ok with him since lots of heroes can beat him 1v1.
I completely disagree with this entire sentiment. Superman is one of the most compelling heroes out there and the fact that he isn't challenged often is the fault of lazy and uninspired writers. For years Superman has faced off against Lex in a battle of wits and people loved it. The thing people always forget is that they look at Superman and see his impressive array of powers and assume that nothing can challenge him.
But Superman beneath the suit is one of us, he's human. And the best Superman stories are written when the writer remembers that.
Everybody hurts sometimes. And pain doesn't have to be physical. The best stories for Superman are the ones that push his mind and heart to the limit, the ones that make you feel for him. Likewise, Superman has to show amazing restraint in his life, he could easily reach out and snap most of his foes' neck but he doesn't. He doesn't because he's better than that, because he stands for something. Even in a world made of cardboard, Superman takes care not to cause unnecessary harm. He's spent an entire life managing strength that's strong than a locomotive, blending into a world that moves at a snail's pace next to him and all because why? Because he knows the responsible that comes with such power, he cares for the world and truly wants to do better for it. He knows he can't just muscle his way through saving the world because guess what? Humanity is screwed up, you solve world hunger, we'll cause a world drought, you cure cancer, I'm sure we'll create a new super disease. But you can protect humanity and that's what Superman is, he's a protector, a watchful guardian. But he is not a despot, he's not a dictator and he's not an enforcer. A well written Superman shares no traits with that of a villain.
You want a way to make a decent Batman vs Superman formula?
Look up Injustice and Injustice 2...
Played them both, and while they're great as one shots, there's no coming back from that story line. I can't see Superman being redeemed, Wonder Woman is basically a despot, at least Flash and GL got some redemption in 2. But if that's the path they took for the cinematic universe they'd basically be permenantly cementing Superman's place as a villain. Unless a cinematic universe took more time to play Superman as sympathetic, something I don't find the games too. Haven't tried the comics mind you, but yeah, after the Joker is killed, I don't feel sympathy for Superman anymore. Anything beyond that was extremism making him a terrorist.
