Everybody just hates on Superman because most writers are too edgy to write him well

Batman villains > Superman villains

Batman certainly has the more iconic villains: Joker, Two-Face, Scarecrow, Penguin, Catwoman, I could go on.

Superman villains would be: Lex Luthor and maybe Braniac.

I've grown to prefer Superman as an adult just because wholesome people are just so rare in real life. It's just refreshing and heartwarming to see someone as good natured as Clark.

As a kid, I was one of those "Superman is boring!" people.

As I got older, I grew to respect him. Everything he represents, a hero who genuinely is doing good just to do good and is a good person is just so rare these days.

Batman still cooler tho.

Darkseid and Doomsday are just as important

This is the real issue.

Lex Luthor would be a great villain for a James Bond or John McClane. But a charismatic businessman against a flying invulnerable superman literally named Superman? He just doesn't cut it.

But that's the whole reason why they work. They're polar opposites. Superman's an alien superhuman from another planet who had a humble upbringing and is totally wholesome and selfless. Lex is a regular guy who could probably do more to help mankind than Superman ever could, but instead he's a selfish, greedy asshole.

Maybe you are right in that Superman is better than Batman. Superman had Lex Luthor as a foe and has survived until today. Batman would have undoubtedly faced cancellation if he had stuck with Dr. Hugo Strange as his primary antagonist.

A good hero deserves a villain who is their equal or near equal; a complimentary foe. Lex Luthor is a liability, not an asset.
