* Throughout the game, the story occasionally cuts back to the main universe's Superman, who is working with Cyborg and Flash to track down their missing comrades and Joker. The scenes emphasize the difference between him the Regime!Superman: Clark refuses to let Barry travel to the Injustice universe alone because he's worried about his safety. When Cyborg locates them, Superman's primary concern is the safety of a possible away team and the stranded heroes. Lastly, he is constantly encouraging the two when they are feeling down and tells not to give up regardless of the circumstances. Even in a story where one Superman has become an uncaring tyrant, it's a refreshing and much-needed reminder that one Superman is still AFatherToHisMen and prioritizes their safety above all.
