"This is my anti-modern take on how Superman is written today...
This is my counter-argument to the contemporary interpretation of Superman...
Lately, there has been a growing trend among writers to either humanize or deify Superman, presenting him as a religious Messiah-like figure. They humanize him in an attempt to make him more relatable to the audience, which is unnecessary. On the other hand, they deify him by transforming him from an extraterrestrial being hailing from Krypton into a religious icon, often paralleling the figure of Jesus Christ in Christianity.
Here is my perspective on this particular depiction of "Superman."

These Alien Dragons (version 1.0)
(Note: This is the old version. It is preferable if you read the current/new version.) For all their life, J. Pappas has been a reader and a writer. They have written about many things - cats, owls, humans, and dragons; they've read stories about distant futures, fantastic worlds, and epic adventures. But now a new genre of literature has arisen - "woke" literature. This type of literature has erased the memories of those old stories that J. and past generation loved to read, infecting those who read it with ideologies than wonder. And worse, the next generation is being exposed to its horrors. J. had to do something to combat this. And so, they wrote and wrote and wrote. Story after story after story. Many weren't working, but one stayed in their head. This is that story - a distant planet that mimics our times, but it not ruled by humans. It is ruled by dragons, and humans are the aliens of that planet.Complete
Indestructible: Superman x BlackOC
NEW COVER - SAME STORY A superman story like no other, far from any canon in existence, Kal-El made his way to Earth as an infant, not to be discovered by the Kents, but by the Luthors! (for all my true DC geeks, think Ultraman's story expanded) Moving to the inner city of Metropolis during middle school, Clark and Lex quickly filled their roles as the cocky, @sshole jock and even bigger @sshole genius respectively. Their rise to popularity was almost instantaneous with the Luthor name and bank account behind them. Clark Luthor is a complicated creature. Sure, he's incredibly powerful, but he always found himself at odds with his ingenious brother Lex, competing for their father Lionel's approval and attention. Rather than hiding behind nerdy glasses (don't come for me, y'all, I love nerdy Clark Kent), Clark Luthor's upbringing turned him into something much darker and more dangerous. But this story isn't really about him, it's about the shy and quirky girl who seems impervious to death or permanent injury who unfortunately gains his attention. Follow Lyra Queen's story and find out what happens 😉. TW: bullying, harassment, violence, etc. NSFW and def 18+ (read at your own risk). This follows no canon, but lmk if you have characters from DC you wanna see. Also, this (like all my stories) features a black main character and many (maybe all) of the other DC characters in the story will be BIPOC. Iykyk. No apolgoies.Complete
Atlas
(Y/N) moved to Gotham to give herself and her son Eilis a fresh start. Sure, people thought she was crazy for leaving Metropolis for a crime run city, but she had her reasons. While she had hoped to meet with the Big Bad Bat, she wasn't expecting to also befriend the multimillionaire playboy and his children, the Waynes. Not to mention tons of other heroes, villains, and people in between. Without realizing it, (Y/N)'s slowly begun her ascent to the top of the food chain. Somehow becoming the most influential person in Gotham. And all she wanted to do was thank Batman for saving her life a few years back. "I thought I would crumble under the weight of the world, but Bruce carried the sky without ever saying a word. He was my Atlas." Also if u question their age, just don't. Whatever age you want to image him is fine because I image him at like 30 to 35 but he would probably be more like 40s. And the same for (y/n) because she's like 25 to 30 in my head. So don't think about it to much 😘Complete
Through the Looking Glass | Superman and Lois
Nicole Kent was not of this world. No, literally. This was not her world. Her world was ending and she was thrusted through dimensions into a timeline where this Smallville, Kansas was as quiet as hers had once been. It didn't take very long for her to understand why she was here, though, and not back by her brother's side and fighting to stay alive, where she should've been. The same thing that was happening to her world was going to happen to this one if she didn't find this world's Superman and give him a heads up. She knew it wasn't going to be easy to see someone who looked like her dad but really wasn't, but she wasn't ready for just how similar this world's Superman's life was to the one she'd had before. "I hate to break it to you, Jordan," she responded. "But I'm not Alex and this isn't Wonderland." Still glued to his spot, he corrected her. "It's Alice in Wonderland." "Same difference." **Takes place two years after season 2 of Superman and Lois, but I started writing this before season 3 came out so it's not going to follow whatever plot line the writers have for this upcoming season. I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE ORIGINAL CHARACTERS FROM THE SHOW. I ONLY OWN MY ORIGINAL CHARACTERS AND PLOT LINES!*** Book 1 of 2 Started: 1/12/23 Finished: 4/16/23Complete

Partners In Justice
Actor is at it again with his terrorism and genocide- I MeAn- "Storytelling" and has a new partner in "Justice". Much to his distaste, our dearest-villainous- Darkiplier has his own new partner in crime to help in his endeavor to stop Actor and save his fellow egos. But Dark's new partner is... Odd, to say the least. He seems to be holding secrets but doesn't seem... Malicious. If you haven't read "Dancin' With the Glitch" I suggest you read it. This universe is strongly linked to that one- being the film they made during that book. But you don't have to read it, these are still separate.
