So far, nobody wrote a convincing "human race vs super-human race" story.
I have to disagree with this, I'm afraid. The X-Men comics have been doing this for years (from the 1960s actually). This whole storyline seems very derivative to me, though of course it's possible that the only reason why Joss is going with it is because he's not satisfied with any of the myriad scenarios exploring this theme that the X-Men has come up with in the last 40 years.
As for the maturity/lack of maturity of the characters, I'm finding it very hard to judge. It's a big problem for me that they look so much younger. It adds to the whole simplified season 1 feeling I'm (like you) getting from the comics so far.
