New Zealand doesn't even get on maps in the real world half the time, let alone on fictional ones. Plus our best superpower is the ability to visualise seemingly unrelated matter configurations of the three regular dimensions as if they were a cohesive series of events occurring in a linear sequence.

There's no way Stark or Richards or one of these super genius billionaires doesn't subsidize that kind of thing. Like Bruce Wayne has a ton of various foundations that give people money for the hosed up poo poo that happens in Gotham.

Obviously you move to New York and then when poo poo goes crazy you go straight to the 9/11 memorial so that when Doom or whoever shows up to kill everyone you can ask 'Where were you when the towers fell?' and then you'll look at the wall of names together and he'll shed a single tear and leave with a growled 'Next time, Richards'

Maybe he's like Trump, where he constructs a mental fantasy world where he's the best at everything. It's just extra-hard to get through to him because he's mostly right.

If a normal person would have been hurt by Dr Fates lightning bolt, then Superman would not be more hurt. But most normal people tend to be straight up killed, if not seriously harmed by a lightning bolt. So by that logic shouldn't a magic lightning bolt have a pretty good chance of killing Superman? Historically they don't, but they do mess him up something fierce.

Superman at one point was so bothered about this that he jumped dimensions to ask Doctor Fate after all his magic buddies on THIS Earth basically said they couldn't help him.  Hey Supes get off the drat satellite my calls to Madagascar aren't going through!  During a battle with aliens that used magic, Dr. Fate temporarily infuses him with all his power so that for a time, he is effectively invulnerable to magic. He shrugs off magic attacks with ease. Of course, here's what happens when he just asks him outright:  from World's Finest #208 Never mind that Fate is from Earth II and whatever whammy Fate gives him might only work in -his- universe..

It's more like "If I hadn't been so worried about my weaknesses I never would have come to your Earth to prevent you from getting jobbed by those alien assholes" as the aliens had powers too tough for Fate to tackle by himself.

Green Arrow was always the Kmart Batman, it makes sense. Plus wood is cheap enough for the second richest man in the world, kryptonite is hella expensive.

Not really no. Certainly there are people who will tell you their name is Greg, but they are just in denial that their parents didn't love them enough to name them.
