Justice League Movie: 10 Ways It Could Be Better Than The Avengers

5. It€™ll Feature the World€™s First Superhero

The Avengers might have boasted Captain America, who within the Marvel Universe is the original Superhero, but the Justice League movie features Superman: the world€™s actual first Superhero. Before him, comic books were generally reserved for pulp crime or war-time stories. But when Action Comics unleashed Superman on the world, that all changed in an instant. The success of Superman was unprecedented. This idea that a man could possess superhuman strength, agility and invulnerability, it was just unheard of and it spoke directly to a war-weary America, who at a time when it felt more vulnerable than ever. Now, you might be one of the guys that say €˜Superman is lame€™, but I guarantee you, there are at least an equal number out there who believe the exact opposite. When you sit down to something Man of Steel themed, you really are drinking from the source, it€™s that simple. In my eyes, provided the Justice League movie is well penned and well directed (something every DC fanboy is waiting with bated breath to discover), we could be looking at an €˜original and best€™ type deal, because to my mind, no Marvel character carries that sort of historical weight.
