Welcome to /c/Tumblr
All the chaos of Tumblr, without actually going to Tumblr.
Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Cursed
This isn’t your personal call-out post.
- No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
- No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
- Keep it fun and weird, not mean-spirited
Rule 2: No Forbidden Posts
Some things belong in the drafts forever. That means:
- No spam or scams
- No porn or sexually explicit content
- No illegal content (don’t make this a federal case)
- NSFW screenshots must be properly tagged
If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can handle it. Otherwise just reblog and relax.

I think you really misunderstood what Superman is about. It's not about the power or the fight. That's just visual candy. He's a character about making the right choice because he has the power to do so.
And yet those choices make no sense. An all-powerful being doesn't have to make decisions. He literally has the power to rewind time in some comics, he can fly so fast as to make every decision completely meaningless.
This is like saying you're going to make a comic about God and then say it's about the choices God has to make. No it's not, God doesn't have to make choices, God does what God wants. Saying Superman comics are about making the right choice is a cop out for a terrible superhero.
