Don't get me wrong, I love super hero comics. But they've been around forever, and with that longevity comes a tie to the past that just can't be ignored. No matter what anyone does with Superman or Hulk there's always going to be someone complaining that a bit of the past is being ignored. Even if that piece of the past is deeply rooted in values and ideas that we don't hold as a society anymore.
