Superman is boring as hell imo, but I guess it depends on when you grew up and if you're into the stereotype superhero or not.

The issue is that Superman is too OP. So the writers have to solve this issue by making kryptonite be so common that you would think it, or a villain with it, would have killed him multiple times by now. So the suspension of disbelief is ruined.

Batman, on the other hand, is just a peak-conditioned, smart, and rich human almost completely reliant on his tech and wits. That's not too hard to balance.

Exactly. The fact that he can turn back time kind of makes the whole superman concept stupid. In effect he gets unlimited do overs.

Batman however is just a guy. Well trained and equipped and all, but relatively speaking more realistic. Character is a lot more nuanced too.

I had no idea my childhood interpretation of Batman was so accurate.
