There have been numerous superhero movies adapted from comic books since I was a child.

I mean, superheroes are almost in the same mainstream level as fairy tales.

Girls had their princesses while we boys had their superheroes.

I had my own superhero favorites from both the Marvel World and the DC World, the two main comic milieus that houses heroes like Batman, Spiderman and Superman. The problem with adapting a comic book to a movie is that there are certain expectations from the audience, especially those who have been collecting these comic books for some time. What are needed to be taken in consideration are the look of the actor, the manner in which the hero is portrayed by the actor (both hidden identity and hero persona), and the special effects. The storyline is pretty straightforward.
