I casted Jack as Superman for their many similarities.

1. They both self-exile themselves to cold regions around the world.

2. Both are even human, one's a supernatural being and the other is a alien.

3. Jack and Clark didn't really knew their father but had a paternal figure (North and Jonathan) to guide them.

4. It took both of them years to master theirs abilities, and when they did, they embraced them.

5. They both fought an enemy that is like a corrupted reflection of themselves, who tried to get them to join their side

My final reason is their morality and charater arcs. Through years of knowing that society won't accept who they are, they distance themselves from it. You see them smiling most of the time and they even might crack a joke, but when they stop the villian or protect the people, they suddenly become something both powerful and unstoppable ( If you have watched Man Of Steel, you know what I mean). In my opinion, Jack is the best canidate for both Superman and Clark Kent.

PS: Hiccup would make an awesome Batman.
