It's not weak at all if your deck is a story. I will admit, they could have mentioned it that way right off the bat...But Dominion never explains why you can use the same copper coin over and over again. Ascension never tells you why you have to wait to draw constructs. Mage Knight never says anything about why your hand is a random assortment of cards, and you have to play Rage sideways if you want to take a step instead of just using Stamina or March.
Deckbuilders are hard to apply theme to. No one has pulled it off perfectly (except Dominion, imho) yet.
Basically, the theme is "DC Comics", not "DC Superheroes".
