* HilariousInHindsight: Jimmy walks in on Ron Troupe comforting Lucy Lane about his disappearance and teases Ron about flirting with his girlfriend, which became that much funnier after Lucy and Ron wound up getting married.

to:

* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: Before dying, Conduit straps [[Characters/SupermanJimmyOlsen Jimmy Olsen]] into a seemingly unbeatable deathtrap so that he can get a posthumous strike in at Superman. Supes naturally becomes angry and distraught as he tries everything he can think of to no avail...which is when Jimmy speaks up and quietly tells him that it's okay and he shouldn't blame himself. Jimmy isn't looking forward to whatever horrific way the trap ends up killing him either, but he spends (what he thinks will be) his last few minutes trying to comfort his best friend.

* JerkWoobie: Conduit. In the end, all he wanted was [[IJustWantToBeSpecial to be special like Superman]]. Even in-universe, Superman mourns and pities him after his death.

* CrowningMomentOfAwesome:
** In ''Action Comics #0'', when Conduit tried to kill everyone Clark loved and Clark finally found his hideout, the opening page has Superman facing a roomful of goons with high tech weapons and the titular villain. Conduit then says that Superman should "beware, this facility is lead-lined to restrict the use of your x-ray vision, is filled with hundreds of agents specifically trained with you in mind, each has kryptonite based weaponry in addition to 250 agents specially trained in psychic warfare."
** Superman's response? "Sounds fair!" The battle happens off-page and the narration says it takes less than two and a half minutes. Cue to Superman in a room full of unconscious agents and not even breathing hard while looking for Conduit.
** ComicBook/JimmyOlsen gets a quiet CMOA. Restrained in a {{deathtrap}} designed to be unbeatable, literally watching his life tick away on a timer overhead, Jimmy delivers a rousing plea to his super powered pal not to [[ILetGwenStacyDie blame himself]] [[YouDidEverythingYouCould for failing to save him.]] [[FaceDeathWithDignity Might qualify as a]] DyingMomentOfAwesome, but he had an [[EurekaMoment epiphany]] which allowed Superman to save him -- just barely.
