The Feel of DC Heroes and Powers Discussion

I don't get on Reddit often. This is my first post, but I have a question that is bothering me. I noticed recently that DC heroes and powers have a certain feel, but I can't figure it out. I've heard mystic, mythic, legendary, conceptual. But that isn't the feeling of them. So, what makes a DC Hero and Power feel like it belongs in DC the second you see it?
