History Awesome / SupermanDoomsday

[[caption-width-right:350:''Two beasts in a fight to the death.'']]

** Superman's last attack against Doomsday one-ups the final blow in the comic book version of the story. Beaten and spitting blood, Superman musters up enough strength to grab Doomsday, fly him clear up into the stratosphere before taking him into a death plunge whaling on him the whole way down.
*** That's right, Superman killed Doomsday by [[WrestlerInAllOfUs suplexing him from orbit]].

** The fact that Superman was a GeniusBruiser throughout the fight. As Doomsday lunged right at him at the beginning of the fight, Superman merely froze him with his ice breath. Once that didn't work, only then he used his fists.
*** Another prominent example? How about Superman tossing Doomsday towards a building by grabbing it by its ''upper jaw''?

Doomsday dies, Superman actually lives long enough to get back on his feet, climb out of the crater and ask if everyone is okay before dying.

** It's worth mentioning what triggers Superman's all-or-nothing attack; Doomsday spots a crying child and moves to kill her. Superman sees this, and finally gets rid of the kid gloves.

* Superman vs. [[spoiler:Clone!Superman]].

* Lois Lane, period. The BadassDamsel IntrepidReporter, who, even when Superman is not there to save her, is always in the thick of the action, doing the right thing. She rescues Toyman's children hostages, gets an upper hand on Lex Luthor and uncovers his plan, and when Real!Superman is fighting his clone, and all hell is breaking loose, she comandeers a military jeep, goes around the city looking for the Kryptonite gun, finds it and then ''shoots the clone with it'', ensuring Real!Superman's victory.

* Police and military deserve a collective mention for going against the deranged Clone!Superman, even when they know it's hopeless, because, unlike some [[BatmanVSupermanDawnOfJustice other]] incarnations of this plot, they actually have a darn good reason for it.

-->'''Clone!Superman''': ''(In an icy, gravelly, tone)'' [[PreMortemOneLiner You're a menace to society, Luthor. You won't be missed.]]

* It may not be a hero's choice, but one can't help but feel a certain amount of grim satisfaction when Clone!Superman threw Toyman to down to the asphalt after hearing the news about his recent murder of a 4-year old girl.

The line he gives before this act is the icing on the cake:
'''Clone!Superman''':(In an icy, gravelly, tone) You're a menace to society, Luthor. You won't be missed.

* A similar instance when he confronts Luthor is pretty satisfying too, especially after you've seen Luthor brutally beating him in his "rumpus room". Luthor tries to goad him into entering the room for a second beatdown. What does Clone!Supes do? Lock the door, and rip the room out of the building before throwing the whole thing straight ''through'' it.
