You haven't seen the hundreds of other people who compare him to Batman?

I don't know about gary-stu though. The dude was pretty messed up in the head from all the trauma, and the show didn't present that like it was some kind of asset (in fact, it was pretty detrimental to him and prevented him from forming healthy relationships and having hobbies that didn't revolve around him obsessing over his parent's murders. He wasn't perfect, he didn't have any friends in the beginning, and he was shown to be kind of a twat at first. Whatever else you want to say about his character, he didn't really seem gary stu-ish and perfect to me)

OP may feel the Gary-Stu-ism because of his power and quick rise in the rankings. But I thought the show explained it plausibly (it's about appealing to the fans of Hero TV, after all, and Barnaby was hella gimmicky for the show). And the fact is, Tiger has the potential to be really powerful as well, it's just that the point of his character is to be a bit bumbling. So of course Barnaby looks even better next to him.

Agreed. Barnaby's crippling emotional problems are presented as nothing but a flaw; simply being powerful is not enough to be a Stu/Sue.
