  • I can’t really define it, but I know it when I see it

    Especially since superhero stuff isn’t so much a genre as it is a convention of the storytelling they’re doing

    For example, Swamp Thing has superheroes in it, but Swamp Thing itself is not a superhero comic because they’re rarely the focus

    One of my favorite comics, Hitman, has superheroes in it. In fact, the main character has paranatural abilities that would in fact make him a superhero if it weren’t for the fact that he hates using them and is a hitman. He still goes up against paranatural and metahuman threats, but its not a superhero comic if that makes sense
