Its a minor background detail because they aren't the main characters and serious effort does not need to be expended to let us know what the are doing.Nah thats a valid question to ask; where the hell are the big 3 and what're they doin'? Its not some minor background detail. And that question will be answered soon. We know malik has gone full schizophrenic and deserted his post, only burnhard and henry left. I think we already know the answer and that is henry is too unstable and doesnt have full control over his powers, and despite how strong and efficient burnhard is, the monster forces are too strong and have too much hax for even burnhard to one shot all of em in a fraction of a second efficiently without blowing the planet up, thats why hes holding back alot and following the directions of HERO. Your point about Marvel/DC superheroes doesnt apply to Superhuman because superhuman doesnt have to follow that trope, certain superhumans not showing up when they shouldve always has an explanation I think, unlike something like the MCU.
I think you're missing the point of that trope, it exists so you can actually enjoy the story, so the writer is not required to waste time on characters not important to the current plot/ It is not a bad trope, it exists so authors do not have to waste time going into unneccasary detail about why such and such isn't helping.
All the author has to say is "they're busy" or we can just assume until told otherwise.
