It is like DC is trying real hard to get me to hate Superman.

New reports on the reboot saying that both Ma and Pa Kent are going to be dead, and Superman is going to be more "alien" and less "Clark Kent"/human. Hence why he takes to wearing the "Kryptonian battle armor". More focus on him being "alienated" and "isolated" rather than "human".

Pretty sure all of that is the opposite of what Superman should be. The point of Superman, a point that we just had some massive storylines about, is that he isn't just an alien. He think and feels like a human. Clark Kent is Superman. Not Superman is Clark Kent.

Then there is Supergirl, who they seem to have reset to just arriving to Earth again, and thus are going to also be doing the whole "alienated"/"isolated"/"not sure if she wants to be a hero" thing. In recent years they finally moved past all of that and actually made Supergirl enjoyable. Now it is back to square one with a bad costume.

Then Superboy, I don't even know what the hell is going on with.
