As a Moments subpage, all spoilers are unmarked as per policy. You Have Been Warned.


  • Superman covering the dead Atomic Skull with his cape, while everyone (except Lois Lane and Jimmy Olsen) cheers for the Elite's brutal methods.
  • Vera going out of her way to provide Lois with information on her brother. Her reason for it? She wants to help her brother, like he once did for her.
  • Superman's final note for Lois, which was never revealed in the comics. Seen in the page pic.
  • The montage showing public support of the Elite growing after the death of Atomic Skull is grim, but it is softened by how the first two people interviewed say that they still respect Superman, even though they don't think his methods are effective.
  • Manchester Black being legitimately enraged and horrified while convinced that Superman killed his team.
    Manchester: YOU CRAZY SON OF A BITCH! YOU KILLED MY TEAM!!
    • Though they bicker constantly, Coldcast and Menagerie do appear to care about each other. Like when Coldcast was genuinely concerned when he thought Superman had killed Menagerie.
  • If there ever was a line that describes why Superman fights for what he believes in, it's this one:
    Superman: I heard a child say that he wanted to be in the Elite when he grows up because it would be fun to kill bad guys. Fun to kill. People have to know there is another way.
  • Bunny, the Elite's organic ship turning on Manchester and helping Superman.
