Depends on your political alignment. Superhero movies are basically fascist propaganda (the people who are most powerful will have your best interests in mind and save you, you dear children who enjoy comic books in your adulthood).
Who watches superhero movies to feel they’re protected by the fictional character in real life? People watch because they want to be like the superhero, not the extras.
Adults relate to the superhero, because they're empowered with agency over themselves and their environment.
These things were supposed to be for children. They have no control over anything and are supposed to look to the big strong adults to solve all their problems.
But even adults are susceptible. Lately politicians have been marketing themselves as the heroes we need to solve the problems we can't.

Which comic book tells this message I'm not sure. How would Superman deal with the trolley problem?
