As a corollary of sorts, there's something rather uncompelling about characters who have superpowers but didn't have to work for them. That's why Batman is such a fascinating story -- worked his friggin' butt off. Just can't give a crap about an all-powerful god that's supposedly just out there, somewhere, or its messiah-wannabe kidlet who just pops out miracles whenever the hell he feels like it, with no explanation. Bad writing.
