Why would anybody support the slavery of being dependent upon superheroes/metahumans/mutants/etc for your very survival?
Wouldn't it be better to wipe all of them out together?
Are you getting your belief systems mixed up? According to an Objectivist, the superheroes serving the masses would be acting as slaves.

Depends on the superhero. Most super science based ones could fit the idea that they're intentionally keeping humanity dependent on them. Which, ironically, would include Lex Luthor.
Because then nobody would defend us from supervillains.
No false gods.

No use science to make us the mutants/metahumans and then kill them.

Superpowers are a weapon. In real life, the minute a superhuman showed it's face, it would jump-start an super-arms war, with everyone and their mother trying to power themselves or their protectors up as much as they could.
I remind you that Boku no Hero Academia confronted this situation better than Marvel and DC has done for...what 70 years?
Honorable mention to GRR Martin's Wild Cards series.

By keeping their inventions to themselves instead of releasing them to the masses? By objectivist standards, that's not only a completely moral action, it would be immoral to actually share them rather than using them for whatever they consider "profit".
