Why do people never pick on Thor and Hulk?

Mainly because they're trying to find an excuse to hate Superman but they become hypocrites in the process. They say Thor and Hulk can beat Superman, but according to them Superman is overpowered and yet Hulk and Thor, who they claim are more powerful, are somehow not overpowered.

Deadpool is popular and not particularly relatable.

What I don't understand is how you always hear about Supes being over powered, but you never hear the same about Martian Manhunter. From my understanding he's just Superman with some extra powers thrown in.  He must not be popular enough to hate on.

Spider-man has incredible powers, dates hot women and has strong ties in the superhero community, yet people claim he's relatable

@jointron33:
seariously, why nobuddy here knows the answer, I'll just tell you, because when some writers would do stuff like make superman back in pre-crisis snease  galaxy away although he reseaved  hearting punches from people who just can't be imagined in that level,  or boy prime ripping through AM who eats universes, WTF(what does it matter if he was tired),  or shattering reallity itself with a punch( What ever that means) superWTF, all people saw was a broken wall of ice.    there are more stuff, I think you get the point, I mean for instance it would be very worthless to argue using such feats in the battle forum and they were infact ignored everytime someone mentions stuff like that or posts a scan.       well, that's mostly it, I am glad I could help.

maybe they pick on supes(sometimes i do too i admit) because he was the beginning of overpowered superheroes. people also may not pick on Thor or hulk because in marvel Thor and hulk are the only really powerful people on earth(save for maybe the Ghost Riders but they don't fight cosmic beings) while on the other hand DC has almost every big hero except batman be very powerful and/or equal to supes in power also his strength level always varies because of the hate on him sometimes he can move planets and others he needs help move one planet and to be fair im ok with supes i like thor more though because he's mostly on his own on earth with his power level save for hulk but still respect him either way

Actually they're different. The ones that hate him cause he's "overpowered" are usually not the same guys that think Superman could easily be defeated. But they're two sides of the same hatin' coin... "

He's also human. Superman is an alien. That might make a little difference. "

Superman is overpowered.

Preach brother.  Plus Superman is more popular. Nobody likes to like the character they think is popular. That is why more and more series start with knock off characters (like Shadow from Sonic the Hedgehog) "

I hate Superman because he wears red panties over his tights with a belt.

Because of DC's marketing of the character over the years might have something to do with it. You know, like Superfriends! People don't know about the source material or care about it in general love to complain about him as an excuse to never read comics, like annoying manga fans that I normally socialize with in my school. I love Superman, I admit I use to be one of the people who hates his character but after reading a couple of his stories including the 1930's reprint origin changed my perception.

but it's ok for Batman to do the same? "

Something that I've found that's really odd is that there seems to be some kind of schism amongst Superman fans where they have to disparage Bruce Wayne. It's really weird.

Yes because his panties are black. "

What about Wolverine and his bluish-black panties or Taskmaster and his white panties? "

One thing about Superman and relatability. Superman isn't supposed to be relatable. He's supposed to be an ideal person that others want to be like - not some hero who everyone can relate to. And really, being relatable doesn't necessarily always make a character better. A good character is a good character whether or not they are realistic or imaginative.

The idea of an alien wearing blue spandex being 1000x times more powerful than their own favourite hero, can pi** off a lot of people.

" @jointron33:  super man is not overpowered...he is really weak to magic and is basically i dont like him cause hes such a boyscout "

" Why do you like Superman (If you do in fact like him)? "

 The opposite is true too. Many Batman fans have a thing against Superman. That is fading though.

I agree with this I hate boy scouts they just piss me off but yet i love Captain America hmmmm odd "

That's just because you hate DC though. Cap is Marvel so you are willing to like him.

"Supermans struggle is with peoples expectations of him so people can relate to that. Hulk is relatable because of his struggle and the fact that he is an outcast. I guess you could say that Thor is relatable if your struggling to live up to your fathers expectations but i don't relate to Thor I find his series epic and fantastic not relatabel. "

Marvel sucks

@IrishX: Spider-Man being human has nothing to do with it. It's the fact that he is not this 6'2" stud with a career (usually) and he is younger than most heroes (his classic depiction is a high schooler, typical age group of comic readers) that makes him relateable. While he dates hot woman, he has regular dating issues. "
