Superman is a burly asshole in a red cape with big muscles.
MAN. Why they gotta harsh on Batman's boyfriend like that?

I'm in Brentwood eavesdropping on a two women who are talking about their children doing something in Ojai and a sweatlodge and then an audition at Berklee and burning sage.

I always figured their differring power levels explained it. So what if Batman takes out some crooked pols? It's not like if he takes out a corrupt city pol his next step would be grabbing the Capital Building during the next State of the Union address, throwing the White House on top, and throwing the whole thing into the sun. But if Superman could took out a city pol, well, once you start thinking in that direction, why not the next step.

EtA: And that have stop/kill the other supers before they start following in each other's footsteps.

Emily, your mouse story is cute and kinda touching. I could see it in an indie comic like Wet Moon or Optic Nerve.

Powers dealt with this too. Of course I can't remember which TPB it was in. (Wikipedia tells me it was The Sellouts.)
