@sandman_: Clearly isn't ignorant in any way. Expressing views. I've already stated why Superman fans shouldn't be offended, and why the thread itself was made. I know enough about him to ask this question in order to start a discussion. People have agreed with me and I haven't had any comicvine veterans put me in my place despite this being a reasonably popular thread, so no I don't think I'm ignorant. I think you're offended for no good reason. It's the equivalent of pulling the race card when someone talks about race, even if that someone isn't being offensive. I'm not offending Superman fans or insulting the character, I'm making valid points, or allowing their validity to be challenged. So yeah, I think I'll continue.
I think he was referring since you don't like Superman..."why are you here'' type of thing. To be honest this type of question isn't new and we Superman fans are pretty tired of it. We kinda get it on a weekly basis by some ignorant person who clearly doesn't know what he is talking about. The question is the same as :
What is Hulk without his powers?
A scientist.
What is Peter Parker without his powers?
A nerd.
What is Batman without his money and tech?
A crazy man.
and so on and on.
I don't know man. But to answer your question of "what is Superman without his powers?''
Well, he is a man. A good man who wants to help people as it has been showned in many comics through the years. He is a farmer, a reporter and a pretty cool guy. He would basically be the same guy, just without powers :/.
