Let me rephrase that. Superheroes are best when treated and presented like fairytales. This isn’t just pride of authorship because I’ve toiled so long in the fairytale vineyards (for those who don’t know, I wrote a long-running series of comic books called Fables, about a sprawling community of fairytale characters). It’s an opinion I’ve come around to slowly and at times reluctantly.
Good observation Bill, I think you're right! Superhero comics have gone overboard with explaining too much about how things work. Sometimes things just are because they are.
