Yeah, I thought the joke in this one was weaker than usual too.
I guess Aquaman as a firefighter makes sense, and so does a Flash as a delivery man, but Superman as a doctor isn't as clear.
I assumed it was because doctors save lives and that's kind of what Superman is known for even though that's not necessarily a specific trait
I understood it as just being that doctors are superheroes cause of the nature of their work, superman just being your most generic type of superhero. though the interpretation works better if it was a nurse imo.
I guess X-Ray Vision? Yeah. It's a stretch.
X-ray vision maybe?
