Casually Comics video description:

Superman a.k.a Clark Kent and Lois Lane are one of the most iconic comic book couples out there. They're also one of the better known DC Comics couples, but did you know in the bronze age there was a strong sentiment that the two shouldn't marry. We discuss here on Casually Comics!

I mean, I know the guy lost what was left of his mind after 9/11, but even before then he showed such… disdain for the Man of Steel. What’s up with that?

I always thought Superman would have more difficulty dealing with pain than a human being, since he probably didn't experience physical pain until adulthood. Spoiler

Have you ever reard/watch a story that explored this fact in any way? Or an explanation?

I have a feeling that Brainiac will kidnap all of Earth's heroes and put them in chambers in space like the Invincible game.

That would explain why basically everyone is in this movie, and really up the stakes. Also Superman would somehow be the only one to get away and Lex wouldn't be seen as a hero or SUPERvillain yet so Brainiac wouldn't see him as a problem

Superboy-Prime beats Black by giving him too much information about DC lol

It's kind crazy that all the information Prime has is enough to overload someone like Black(who is amped by Prime's retcon powers)...Looks like Prime really does have Kryptonian's super-intelligence so he can handle all the information

And depends on how you interpret the "continuity-vision" part, it seems he also has senses are related to continuity knowledge

Thoughts/Preferences For Superman's Character Flaws?

Thumbnail
gallery
31 Upvotes

What are your thoughts and preferences for Superman's character flaws?

Mine are:

Righteous Frustration - Emerges when someone insists on committing wrongdoings or when someone exploits Superman's personal ties.

Inability To Commit - Superman feels it's wrong for someone like him to commit to someone given all his responsibilities

Super Self-Critical - Superman is hard on himself. He has a dedicated space in the Fortress of Solitude for all of his failures.

Loneliness - Superman carries a deep sense of alienation

Unhealthy Work-Life Balance - Superman often does not give himself time off and can go multiple days without sleep depending on emergencies

Strict Secret Identity Adherence To Non-Superheroes - Superman will go to great lengths to keep his secret identity hidden even if inconvenient unless it's the Kents or a fellow superhero

Struggling With The Right Course Of Action - Superman constantly worries with doing the right thing and what the right thing is, which can cause conflict with others as Superman walks the thin line of overstepping or doing too little

Overly Sentimental

Triage Angst - Superman has turmoil when he reluctantly finds himself at times choosing who to help when emergencies occur simultaneously

Did Golden Age Superman have recurring cast outside of Lois/Jimmy/Perry?

12 Upvotes

Something I've been curious about wrt Superman, and kinda Golden Age comics in general...

Since back-issues weren't a thing in the Golden Age, it's natural that story-to-story continuity would be deliberately kept to a minimum, and most characters (outside villains) our heroes interacted with would be one-shots never seen again in any later story. Yet... looking at the Batman stories of the time, every now and then there were recurring faces like Julie Madison or Vicki Vale, or someone like Prof. Carter Nichols to set up a truly out-of-genre story.

So I'd like to ask: did Golden Age Superman stories ever have recurring characters of this type? Not on the level of mainstays like Lois, Jimmy or Perry, but a name/face you'd see recur a couple times a year with minimal explanation, like some police chief or scientist who'd pop in for exposition. Or maybe an early mayor of Metropolis...

(If it matters: I'm using the really broad definition of "Golden Age" that makes all the early '40s and even early '50s fair game, not specifically the "Champion of the Oppressed" Superman.)
