Order of events: Superman was born on a foreign planet. Classification: Alien. It was until after 20 years on Earth that he went public in Metropolis and was given the title of "superhero". It all comes down to relativity. From the common people's point of view, he will always be a superhero first; that's how they first identified him and that's how it's going to be. In a reality not influenced by comic book stardom and superheroism--strictly speaking--he's an alien.

Superman is both superhero & alien.....although a lot of us look at him as a superhero, not as an alien because of his human features.

STRICTLY speaking he's a superhero... since superheroes posses superpowers. Technically his super powers are derived from his alien physiology. As oposed to a genetic mutation or powered armor. For purists it is not about how you got your powers but If you have powers.

we consider him a superhero compared to humans, but the planet he was from everyone was like that so he was just like everyone else where he was from. Also let me add that the only reason he was accepted on earth was because he 'looks' human, if he had a body like how we usually depict aliens from other planets then people would be scared of him and he would have been caught and diasected, dont you think?

In technical terms, he's both.
An Alien and a Superhero.

Superman is the man of steel bro...faster than a speeding bullet...a speeding bullet!...ok thats what like about 700mph?...more powerful than a locomotive...a freaking locomotive man!...able to leap tall buildings in a single bound...I can jump what?...about 3-4 feet?...lmao...ok now that I've gotten that outta my system...I think the storyline there is something like: Even though he comes from afar he grows up in the simple life and has high moral upbringing and uses his special abilities to do the right thing...to fight for truth, justice and the american way which is life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness...actually America stands for these things...and as much as we're all guilty of putting her down, I think deep down we all know that means something...*steps down off soap box now*...

An alien. The real question should be is he alien because of his Kryptonian heritage or is he an alien because due to his powers he seems to "alienate" himself from us mere mortals.
All in all with the costume he seems to be the symbol of the gay pride parade.

i think of I desire Spiderman, somewhat extra effective than Batman, because of the fact he's extra relatable. whether i like the deeper tone of the Batman video clips extra, the Spiderman videos are extra relaxing for me - and the comics are extra like comics, and much less like novels. additionally, i think of that his powers are the superb, and he's merely kinda astonishing, particularly. In an available way, in assessment to the awesomeness of Batman - that may purely ever be aspired to, for the reason that he's a ******* billionaire and all. additionally, he's kinda tousled. a minimum of Spiderman had a reasonably regular upbringing, with uncle and aunt and stuff. 'Til he circuitously killed one in each and every of them, and left the different a lonely, unhappy female.
