Singer was best with the plight of X-MEN because the underdogs and they were fighting for equality. Singer ditched Superman's pro-American spirit for a non-offensive, global hero...look where that got you, WB. Besides, people around the world associate the "S" & the Bat-Signal with America already. So, how could WB have missed this foundation of character? Ah, political correctness...*yawn*. *slaps hand* No! No more PC Superman. Superman is a pro-American character. He was raised on an American farm, by American parents, with traditional American values, and, yes, taught to believe in "Truth, Justice & the American Way!" (NOT "Truth, Justice & all that stuff!") He is a successful being who is a product of America who is charitable in giving back to the country which spawned his values. He gives to the world as well. He is only a global hero when he is fighting an external threat to defend Earth. He is also an example of what America stands for through his actions around the world. That is what made the character work! I'll tell you a little secret..."AMERICANS LOVE A WINNER!"
