I never got into the whole concept of comic books nor did I ever get into the whole superhero thing. I collect Predator/AvP comic books, read them once and that's it. They're only for collecting.
I think for me, as I got older, I realized I didn't need some superhero being in my life to look up or want to be, because I had my Dad. I realized as an adult, that as kid, my Dad has always been my superhero. So that's why I never got into comic books or their characters.
Now I do like watching the movies for plots etc, but not too big into characters. For liking characters it ended up being realistic characters - Tony Stark and Bruce Wayne.
They're rich and smart. That's there superpower.
