I'm a Marvel... and I'm a DC/Awesome: Difference between revisions

'''Lex:''' Because the Marvel Universe has corrupted everything you stand for, all in the name of high drama. Think about it, Kal-El! [[The Paragon|Your job is to be an inspiration for people]]. [[The Cape (trope)|Someone they can look up to]], someone they can aspire to be like. In steadfastness, in character, in ideals, and what did Marvel offer? They said "Don't worry, you don't have to aspire to anyone in our books. [[Humans Are Flawed|You just have to relate to them]]." And now we have an entire culture that thinks that who they are is just fine, and how dare anyone suggest that they could improve themselves! Why aspire to be Superman when it's so much easier to relate to Spider-Man? No one wants to look up to you anymore, Superman. They don't want to strain their necks. Instead, they look straight ahead at the compromised heroes in front of them and say that'll do just fine. Don't you see? We have the power to put it all back the way it was! The way it should be! You can still be the inspiration you once were! You can still make a difference. Isn't that why you became a hero in the first place?<br />
