* HighOctaneNightmareFuel: Parasite is this, in spades.

** The fact that Mark Waid used the introduction ''give away what he thinks are the two best lines in the whole story'', out of context, with no warning, leads this troper to believe that the whole intro was an exercise in insanity.

* CrowningMomentOfAwesome: See the list at {{Awesome.TheDCU}}
** A very notable one: when Jor-El tells Kal that he's dead and being converted to living solar consciousness, he states, "You can stay and play in the fields of consciousness. Or you can turn and face evil one last time." Guess what he chooses?

* TearJerker: [[spoiler: When Jonathan Kent suffers a heart attack, Superman rushes to him so fast that ''his hair catches on fire'' from the friction, but he's still too late.]]
--> [[spoiler: '''Superman''': "Pa? Why can't I hear his heartbeat?"]]

* TearJerker: And how!

* HarsherInHindsight: As mentioned on the main page, writer Dwayne McDuffie died suddenly of complications from emergency heart surgery the day before the film was released on DVD. Made all the more poignant because the film concerns Superman facing his mortality, and he had been giving [[http://www.paleycenter.org/2011-spring-all-star-superman-ny/ interviews]] [[http://www.paleycenter.org/2011-spring-all-star-superman-la/ about the film]] mere days before.

* EpilepticTrees: Many believe Leo Quintum is [[spoiler: Lex Luthor]], having travelled backward in time from after the end of the series where he briefly stole Superman's powers and [[GoMadFromTheRevelation Went Sane From The Revelation]].
