Respectfully disagree with the notion that Bendis writes Superman as 100% alien. He definitely does not shy away from the Kryptonian heritage, but many times in the story so far we see Superman’s humanity shine through, in moments both big and small.
- When he stops people from looting.
- When he contemplates killing Rogol Zaar and the teachings of Jonathan and Martha bring him back to earth.
- When he demonstrates to Jon how to settle a major conflict without losing lives.
- When he asks Livewire to help at Star Labs.
- When he reunites with Kara, Jon and Krypto.
- When he reflects about Jon with Adam Strange.
- When he reflects about how often he hears/sees people trying to help and do the right thing and the hope that gives him.
- The speech he gives when he gives up the secret identity, emphasizing his upbringing and pride in being Clark Kent.
These are all moments from the Superman series that, in my eyes, portray the character as more than an alien and emphasize his humanity. In addition, Action Comics featured Clark Kent the reporter frequently.
Haven’t heard the podcast… but no “fighting” desired here 
. Gonna bow out now before I upset anyone.
