Why does Superman bother working a day job anyway? Wouldn’t he be more effective as Superman if he was helping people 24/7? Every second he’s at work people are dying and suffering around the world. This doesn’t bother him?

hes a human being who has hobbies and passions and craves relationships. youre like that retarded comic about how he should just be a kinetic battery until he dies of old age

That's their problem. If he solves it, they won't learn anything.

Being a superhero doesn't pay the bills.

>>149361901 (OP)
he's a character created before the internet so working at a news organization let him learn about disasters and crime as they were happening so he could go do something about it. now I guess he just likes the job and it pays the bills.

Soup ma nuts.

If a superhero were legitimately willing to flex their abilities on a scale that impacted the world, people would become dependent to the point that their impact was no longer noticed. If they went around preventing accidents, people would become more reckless until the dead toll went back to pre-super levels. If they went around feeding the poor, farmers and charities would dial back until hunger went back up to pre-super levels. If they went around and overthrew despot governments, the very people being ruled would adapt by opposing the new system as harshly as the previous.

Clark Kent is a human being like anyone else. You don't think exceptional people check out after a long day? A man needs romance, and hobbies. Having an incel harp on you 24/7 is not ideal life style for a normal joe.

>>149361901 (OP)
he wants to live the slow life while being OP as fuck working together with Loise-chan and Jimmy-kun

If you want this boring character he's called "The Samaritan" and he's a regular in Astro City.

>>149363228
the samaritans were enemies of israelites, I doubt he would be allowed in the modern israel dicksucking climate.

Why is Superman a Gen Z broccoli head?

It leads to dumb thoughts like this.

someone needs to gather the evidence to keep the villains in prison

The same retarded argument was used against seatbelts in cars.

he enjoys socializing and he is just like us

Superman is a power fantasy, it's not about saving people, it's about being powerful.

The saving people thing is simply something he does for gratification.

The Samaritan's actually got a decent reason to be like that though and addresses the downsides to living like that alongside its benefits.

>Superman is a power fantasy
being super strong and being able to fly is only half the fantasy, otherwise we would be reading bizarro issue number 1000 right now

it is that he has all that power and he chooses to save people
