I mean, don't get me wrong, ofc there large amount of young protagonists in media aimed at kids/teenagers exists for a reason, but when I was a kid I recall liking pro wrestlers and many other kids I knew liking Batman or another adult superhero. So this whole idea that kids automatically cannot relate to or like adult characters seems flawed.

Kids are going to look up to characters like Bat Man and other Superheroes and like them as being the figures fighting for good. But kids often relate to characters that are kids like them, which is why the sidekicks are kids and young teenagers because it does give someone in the show they can see themselves as.
