Why are there so few truly working class superheroes? Superman is practically crying out for an Elseworlds where he grew up poor with Pa breaking his back for LexCorps and getting killed in a Union Strike, inspiring Clark to become a symbol of hope for the downtrodden.
I mean, Green Arrow flirts with poverty from time to time, but he always has his Justice League communicator on him, you know?

Spider-Man was that way at the start, but he hasn't been "working class" since like the 70s.
Wasn't there a Batman elseworlds with something like that?
because the execus at DC nad Marvel are rich greedy fuckers and dont want working class stories
>Why are there so few truly working class superheroes?
Probably the same reason why we see so few shows focus on working-class families. No working-class writers working on comics or TV.
Yeah, Golden Streets of Gotham
it's good shit ?
This, obviously. (Corporate) ideology reinforces itself. Golden age Superman would dismantle the billionaire heads of AT&T.
And he’s do it with his own two hands while verbally berating them for treating their employees the way they do.
