June 4, 2013: Dan Greenfield's "In Praise of Superman" in the NY Post

On June 1st, the NY Post published an editorial on the "Man of Steel" by Dan Greenfield, which describes in detail the struggle between Hollywood trying to find a way to make Superman relevant and Superman's proclivity to be good for the sake of being good. A sample from the article:

    I've watched Superman TV shows and Superman serials. I own all the Superman movies. I've watched Superman cartoons, played with Superman action figures, worn Superman T-shirts.

    And after taking all that in, I find that the last thing in the world I want is a Superman who thinks being Superman is a burden. I don't want a Superman who mopes.

    Because that is actually the least realistic portrayal I can think of.
