Kinda crazy that we have memes like this to remind people to not be an absolute menace to society
Memes really do have an effect on people outside of just haha funny
That's kinda shows the importants of memes and why we shouldn't just make mindless jokes because "its just meme". Memes are the culture right now.

The amount of catharsis I feel seeing Superman finally be recognized as a great character after years of people saying he's boring is undescribable
Maturing is realizing that goodness and kindness aren't ''boring'' and that edginess and pessimism aren't necessarily ''enlightened/complex''

And there’s nothing wrong with shows like invincible and the boys because their still great on their own right, it’s just that we can’t forget who those shows and characters where inspired by, and even Superman was evil in injustice but never let other versions or interpretations distract you from the real deal.
There’s always a Man in Superman
it's good to see people paint Superman as a good guy again and not some potentially evil tyrant
injustice moment
Because he IS a good guy
He is like the icon of justice and good guy after all
You’re just stupid.
Fuck Injustice that shit ruined super mans image besides kingdom come is a better super hero civil war story
Superman saying I love you to the entire earth is the core of who superman is and it goes unbelievably hard.

I hope it stays like this for awhile
Circle of life.
the cycle continues
Best superhero, not because he is the most powerful, but rather despite being so powerful he doesn't stop being a real hero. The best person isn't human and he inspires us to be better versions of ourselves.
But despite not being biologically human, he’s 100% human. How he acts, how he feels, how he interacts with people is all extremely human, which makes him incredible.
He's the best superhero not because he's the strongest or because he can shoot lasers out of his eyes. It's because no matter what, you can always depend on him to make the right call. And you can always trust him like that not because he's superman, but because he's Clark Kent, country boy with a heart of gold. His greatest strength, the one he is truly respected for, is his humanity.
Basically Jesus but nobody wants to be religious so they look up to Superman (better than nothing)
@@slappyjo1046i mean tbf there are non-religious ppl who genuinely think Jesus is (or rather "was" for them) a real historical person and was a good dude with good teachings. most of them just hate what religion has become, opposite of what Jesus taught

Seeing Superman get some respect online as someone who unironically enjoys his character is cathartic.

Same bro I love superman. And it's so intriguing to see him get some love after shit like Injustice and Snyder's superman.
Superman reminds me of my dad ❤ I love my dad.
Real
I love superman he's always been great him and Batman especially justice league unlimited one
There's an oversaturation of Edge in media these days that someone with honest and genuinely good intentions is refreshing.
Wouldn't be surprised if there would be a wave of "optimism posting" that would happen. Would love to see that though
I remember watching Nostalgia Critic's review of Wonder Woman, and he really liked it simply for the fact that she just wanted to help people because it's the right thing to do.
There's no traumatic backstory, there's no quest for vengeance, she just wants to help.
Hopefully (no pun intended), the new Superman movie keeps this up. Clark Kent, beyond his Kryptonian might, is nothing more but a farmboy raised right. He'd still help people even if he wasn't Superman.
@@jocosesonataSay, that second sentence of the final paragraph rhymed!
It’s like the opposite of Jack Horner. People wanted to see a pure evil villain, now they want to see a pure hearted hero.
@@abuckarooboyo7104sometimes it’s good to have some characters without the gray. Not every character should be pure good or pure evil but it’s nice to have something like it sometimes

That movie was so fire. I need to rewatch it.
Man what so funny about truth justice *get it*
@@AgentLando whats the movie?
@jeandrewvanrooyen8863 The movie is called Superman vs. The Elite
That's the beauty of Superman. He's not the government. He's not the police. He's not a ruler, a tyrant, a king or a despot. He to remain a humble guy from Rural America. For all of his alien heritage, all of his immense power, the core of who he is. . . is the lovingly-raised son of the Kents. He's Clark. Superman is the persona, Clark is the man behind it. Clark is the driving force, not the power.
He represents hope and some faith in the notion of justice. He's represented in each of us when we choose to do good despite it all. Every little thing you do to help someone else, when you hold yourself to honesty, integrity, and principles, you embody Superman. He's humanity at our best, and never does he forget his humble farmboy roots. He's an honest and earnest person. He's old-school values.
Even if he has the power to end a lot of our issues he realizes and lets us know that he can't be there always solving everything, that the change is within us. We need to be better, not be babysit by an all powerful being, because he believes humanity has the potential to be better by their own.
Superman is pure distilled inspiration and faith in the best traits of humanity. It's a beacon and a symbol.
Through that lens, Clark is one of the best representation of faith as a concept. Not just faith in our lord and the figure we might look up to, but also faith in the people around us. Faith in humanity. Faith that we can be the best person that is within ourselves.
Superman dares us to be someone that can inspire others for the better.
That's why it pisses me off when Wonder Woman calls him Kal-El in the films, it's so cringe
"If The Word 'Super' Is To Be Applied To Anyone, It Should Be Applied To All Of You, To All Mankind.". ~ Superman
He believes in us more than anyone
This right here is one of the truest things ever typed
The fact that “Superman” is a “breath of fresh air” says more about our society than anything.
Superman was always a reflection of our society. Superman was created in a pretty dark time in the world, but because of his strong moral values and heroism, he was wildly popular and cemented himself as a global icon.
Here in 2024, we have ongoing wars, increasing depression, diseases, etc. it’s no wonder more and more people are looking for Superman to save them again. It shows why he’s such an important character.
@@supremedreams6789 I feel you. It’s almost like “The Reign of Supermen” after The Death of Superman. There’s a lot that are flawed, even horrible and some that are decent but they fail to be the “real” Superman.
Gotta love how an alternate scenario concept got exploited to the point where it just became the norm and people ended up getting sick of it getting forced down their throats, until it all wrapped around, going back to how it originally was.
Life is a pendulum
Funny how things work
Entertainment is just a constant back and forth of people wanting of one thing, people eventually getting tired of that one thing, then people gravitating towards that thing's opposite until they get tired of that and go back to wanting the original thing again.

I remember thinking that Superman was lame when I was a kid because there was no reason a guy this powerful wouldn't take over the world. But as I got older, the idea of this dude who could kill us all but choosing to be good just because is inspiring. He's an open defiance to "absolut power corrupts absolutely" and I love that.
He's basically "power doesn't corrupt, it reveals" the superhero

Kindness is not a weakness.
Superman and Optimus Prime both show this.
Wait. Hold on.
Both of them are an alien from a destroyed planet. (Krypton. Cybertron.)
Both of them have an enemy who is a moral opposed to them (Zod. Megatron.)
Both have red and blue colours.
Bayverse Optimus Prime kinda looks a lot like Superman. If Supes was a transformer, he'd totally look similar to him.
@@marxvargas7697 Imagine a teamup.
Superman being the symbol of hope, goodwill, and justice goes to show how the "evil Supermen" like Homelander, Omni-Man, and Tighten can't underestimate the power of pure good.

Superman was always a symbol of hope. Our own pessimism twisted him into these hopeless scenarios that only further cemented that ire.
He is the hero we do not deserve. It’s nice to see people recognize Superman for being who he is at heart.
Funny thing is how badly out of character they make Clark or his friends to create these "evil Superman AUs", not counting the literal opposite ver. from The Crime Syndicate.
Injustice (comics) has Bruce be an ass & downright turn on Clark when Clark came to him for emotional support. Diana got turned into a warmonger who drove Clark down the path of a tyrant for no reason. One of the worst cases was Barry though. He was turned into a coward who blindly looked to Superman, cause he was incapable of thinking for himself.
@@electricfeverx976"but bro it's just an alternate universe"- average marvel/dc fan
Yeah, I feel the Kingdom Come version more appropriate. Rather than being dictator, Superman would rather retire as superhero, or become a hermit
The panel where superman says "I love you" to the world was tear jerking. The panel actually comes from a superman comic by Daniel Warren Johnson : Superman Red & Blue #5
This is why we need a good Superman movie. One that understands the kind of guy he is. He’s not a stoic alien. He may be from another planet, but he’s more down to earth than any of us.
i want one that's kind of in the same vein as The Batman, a younger him that's still figuring out how the world works and how to be a good person and all that
We wont get that in Live Action unfortunately. At least not for a very long time based off of the direction these directors are going with the DC films. They just don't seem to hire anyone who actually cares about the characters. Moreso they will hire a director that is at least marginally interested in them and will end up using them as a creative medium to self insert.

@@saucymongoose7246 I think it has the spirit and thats important with all the evil Superman and gritty Zach Snyder version.
STAS is one of those really good pieces of superman media I agree.
Tbh i feel this meme i have discussion about that and when comes to Heroes its often "But that is so boring!" Yeah, doing something for others can be boring but you give people a future.. its like planting a tree or _burn down_ a tree.
Planting a tree and let him growth can be boring and you need years until the tree is big enough to give a shadow where you can rest in a hot summer day etc, but you let something back even when you are already dead.
Burn down? You have some "fun" for maybe 1-2 hours but thats it
Thats the reason why i enjoy playing good in RPGs etc.. you give people are future and not just ash and blood just for a little bit of "fun"
Its literally Hedonism VS Responsibility
It’s not even hedonism. Undertale is a good example of how evil itself is boring. You get nothing out of destruction. There’s a momentary high, but eventually you have to dedicate yourself to the tedious task of hunting down every last thing to destroy it, because now you’re in too deep and can’t do anything else. Meanwhile if you actually helped people, you were in for a much better time
Being good, nice, and kind is considered boring, and then they complain that the world has gone to shit.
Skip the villain arc.
@@jocosesonataNo i don't think i will.
and to the above. i believe what you are referencing is the Ancient Greeks' "The greatest societies, are those founded by men who plant trees, the shade of which they know they will never lie in"
it is about the future of those who come after you, not just you, in the moment.
@@Integritys_Sum
Sorry, I may have wrote my wording to be a bit misleading to my intent. It was more of a dig against those who consider such positive things as "boring", the same people who would later on complain how everything sucks without ever doing anything or giving a little effort to make things even a tiny bit better.
As to the "skip the villain arc" I actually agree and disagree with it myself. There are moments, like the recent hopemaxxing, where I wish to do good and be good just cause it's a good thing to do. But then I get reminded of humanity's atrocities (both old and new) and I'm right back to doubling down on the villain arc.
It's an odd cycle. Finding the greatness in humanity while also being misanthropic.
The fact that superman is being celebrated as a genuinely good character who does right things simply because it's the right thing to do is absolutely heartwarming.
That tiktok of a guy dressed like Superman just interacting with loads of people who are all just excited to meet Superman is exactly what I want right now
He may be an alien and have the powers of a god, but he was raised as a human, to loving parents who taught him to love the world,
I feel like people often over look him for the cooler heros, but he would fight to the death to save anyone’s life, he would give everything to save even just one person, I think that’s beautiful
This is sort of a callback to what superheroes were originally-stories of hope.
It's not just an S.
I will always love Superman for representing the often ignored truth that the world is home to good people who will stay good despite their ability to bad.

This is why I've never liked those people who laser focus on Superman's powers and use him like a measuring stick in online debates. The point of Superman isn't that he's powerful, it's that he shows us who we could be if we really tried. He tries to fight for what's right no matter what and changes the world through his kindness rather than his immense power.
Superman isn't interesting because of his powers, he's interesting because of who he is.
After dealing with THC addiction recently and experiencing withdrawals that have made me moody and overall impatient with people, seeing inspiring memes about him helping people have made me realize that its OK and that we all face hardship. We'll be OK.

😂😂😂😂
All Star Superman probably shows the best of what kind of person Clark Kent is, even on his final year to live he still goes out of his way to help those in need.
Probably one of my favorite scenes in comic book history is when he goes to confront Shazam, Shazam wrecked an entire police station in rage to get the man who killed his best friend, superman meets up with Shazam later to ask him why he did what he did. Shazam ends up revealing who he really is, a child, and immediately Superman goes from being upset at Shazam to asking Billy Batson "Who did this to you" confronting Solomon despite his own weakness to magic
I like the fact that superman is truly by every definition of the word, a "super man", he is above a human in all aspects , not only it terms of strength but also in his character. While we cant strive for his strength we can certainly do so for his character.

The JLA series in the 2000s had the right idea; they made a point of showing Superman being hyperaware of how easily he could destroy everything and how he purposefully pulls his punches.
ik know it seems corny but i think both spiderman and superman embody the indominable human spirit. Superman CAN do bad stuff, but he always chooses not to, representing inturnal struggle. When you read spiderman comics, its hard to beleive how much it seems like the world is against him, but
he always gets up, representing exturnal struggle. js
I think invincible is a unique take on it, like the character not the show. He is pretty much regular person has super-powers.
He is the most human, wanting to do good and great things, while loosing his cool in moments, and regret and doubt overwhelming and influencing his judgement.
Mark is the Superman of a modern suburbia
Clark is the Invincible from the rural farm heading into the big city.
Superman pulling the internet out of the constant abyss of hatred and toxicity, to shine some light and hope into our lives as he always has - perfect.
One of my favorite Superman moments is from the animated series where he discovered a man on death row was innocent and the real killer tried to assassinate Clark Kent. Superman was prepared to reveal his identity to save the man on death row.
That episode was actually loosely based on his first case. In the comic, he barges into the governor’s house at 11:50 PM with the real killer in his arms and forced him to confess because an innocent woman was about to get the chair in a few minutes.
I’m glad Supes is finally getting his recognition he deserves
all these superman edits actually had an impact on me, I've been smiling way more now, I make sure to greet everyone kindly whether I know them or not, my mom has been suffering from mental problems for a quite while and I've been spending more time and always making sure she has a smile on her face, whenever I listen to Starman now I feel cheery inside, and it all happened because superman reminded me that the power of hope is a force which triumphs over all evil.
I'm a pretty cynical guy myself, so seeing the want of genuine positivity in media lately is pretty uplifting.
There are so many people that are now realizing how important of a symbol the original Superman was, and another example is how much value people are giving to the Smiling Friends show, an optimistic and uplifting adult comedy which you also don't get to see a lot off
Honestly it’s nice to see some happiness, memes can be very nihilistic at times so seeing this makes me just a bit happier
I think people are tired about all this Nihilistic, "Everything is shit! Nothing is worth living anymore!" and focus on everything that is bad. People want to have hope again, thats also the reason why "Sams Speech" at the End of Lotr The two Towers are one of my favorit scene.
and that my friends is what makes Superman Great.
People don't want to believe that people can be good for Goodness Sake. Because they're hiding something is more of a popular belief than to admit that we can bring about good in ourselves because of one persons Selfless Actions.

Superman is a great character, surprised it took so long for people to realize it.
the general exhaustion towards anti heroes and dark depictions of the superman archetype has driving people back to the original intent of superheroes like superman, not the desire for immense power but for power to be in the hands of the good.

The superman as a character literally came full circle from "Wow he's so good and strong" to "That's unrealistic, anyone would be an asshole in his shoes" to "Wow he's so good and strong" again
Best trend ever
I've always had a soft spot for Superman because he's a genuinely good guy. He's a symbol of hope and inspires all of us to do better every day.
“His whole planet was destroyed. He’s the last of a holocaust. He grew up in the dirt. Finding out slowly how different he was. A stranger discovering every day how strange he was. He has the world to tear the world apart. And he could. With a pinkie. It’s not his world. We’re not his people. We should be ants to him. Imagine that. Always being on the outside. The pain that would come from always being on the outside. And yet, he took that pain and became the symbol of hope.”
-Batman
Those who are the happiest are those who do the most for others
Especially in this day and age where we're so disillusioned and aware of all the problems of the world and it's easy to give up hope, we especially need Superman and people like him to remind us that we can and should fight for a better future. That's always been his core appeal at the end of the day beyond his powers or costume.
I was wondering when you’d cover this, finally bruh
One of my favorite qoute about Superman was said by Batman:
"It is a remarkable dichotomy. In many ways, Clark is the most human of us all. Then... he shoots fire from the skies, and it is difficult not to think of him as a god. And how fortunate we all are that it does not occur to him."
It feels like we're entering a Superman Renaissance with this, James Gunn's Superman movie around the corner, and the recognition that Superman wasn't "boring" after all
People act like superman is boring because they see someone as doing the right thing as boring. Superman is a hero that anyone would be happy to have as a force for good.
It's easy to hate on Superman until you're exposed to the true evils of the world, and realize that we all need more of what Superman represents
Sometimes, people forget that it's not wrong to create characters that are meant to inspire us to be better. That message has almost been lost in the age of writers and fandoms being increasingly obsessed with focusing on flawed/grey characters who you can't look up to.
i remember a guy being mad at james gunn when he said that his superman is going to be a guy you would want to hug.
imagine thinking a huggable superman is out of character.
Kids: "Superman is cool because he's strong."
Teens: "Superman is boring because there's no way someone that powerful can be that nice."
Adults: "Superman is cool because he's a good person."
Be the kindness that you want to see in the world.
It's been a long time since we saw such a positive trend and we are all here for it
I think I speak for a lot of us when I say we've had our fill of evil/morally gray Superman (Snyderverse, Injustice, etc) and evil Superman clones (Bright burn, Homelander, Omni Man, etc.).
World's full of too much pessimisim, we need the classic, benevolent Superman back.
Amazing meme. I'm so glad it got popular. Honestly gives me the vibes of the "No enemies" meme. Thanks for covering this one, definetely one of my personal favorite memes.
What's up with the internet lately? It feels like everything has become genuinely more positive, and all the shitstorm, whilst not gone, seems much calmer than it was a couple of years ago.
That's a beam of hope, I have this hypothesis that we would be back to the golden era of the internet when things were just genuinely good and cool. It will come to a full circle.
I’m a Superman
Absolutely dude
we are all have been, always
We all are superman 🥹
we all have a superman in us
Superman finally is being recognized as Superman again and I couldn't be happier. Let's hope that James Gunn continues this.
Man, if I was a wizard superhero, I'd throw fun magic shows and instantly cure disease and addiction. All the while healing the earth, maybe I'll build a cool plant bridge to Mars or something.
He's my favorite superhero since I was a kid. Man this makes me happy.
Metroman is the only one i know closer to this meme
You need the heart of Clark Kent to be Superman 🗣‼
Finally, Some good Wholesome Memes
I’m giving my schools graduation speech this year and it’s heavily influenced by the hope i felt when reading Superman comics as a kid, this meme has peaked beyond just silly little edits
My senior yearbook quote was a Superman quote
“Dreams save us. Dreams lift us up and transform us into something better. And on my soul, I swear that until my dream of a world where dignity, honor and justice are the reality we all share, I'll never stop fighting.” From “What’s So Funny About Truth, Justice, and The American Way?”
@@ChrisSuperDude truly a banger quote
It's funny since that was his original trait that later got changed to be more "realistic". I am happy that people remembered the super part of superman.
I was having a bad day today but as soon as I saw the Superman memes about doing the right thing no matter what. I ended up getting more motivation then those “stay in the grind” or gym videos ever gave me
So fun fact: superman currently is one of the only superheroes to actually save someone in real life from the streets. The story goes that a family wasn’t able to pay their landlord or mortgage or something and were about to be kicked out but they found a superman issue 1# from 1939 in their basement which is somewhere in $ 10,000s to purchase and they were able to pay to keep their house.
Wonder Woman: “I am a warrior princess”
Green Lantern: “I am a intergalactic police officer”
Batman: “I am vengeance, I am the night”
Superman: “I am a friend”
This might be the nicest meme of the year, and my personal favorite, every time I see it, it makes my day better, and I do really need that inspiring reminder of selfless kindness
That’s exactly why he’s my favorite superhero he has absolutely no reason to do this but he chooses to help people and make them feel safe and warranted his genuine smile and heartwarming character is so fun to read
