Yeah, I used to think that Superman was the dumbest idea for a superhero ever. Then I sort of realised that he was the only superhero - the only one who was intrinsically the embodyment of 'super' - whose alter-ego was Clark Kent, and not the other way around. Then I realised that he was the template for all superheroes that followed him. And then I realised he was one of, if not THE most conceptually rich characters around, for myriad reasons which I have probably gone over before.
