2 | * [[spoiler: Silver Age Superman probably remembers his dealing with the [[ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk Hulk]], which is why he replies, "They surrender" to the question, "What happens when the UnstoppableForceMeetsImmovableObject." That's ''precisely what happened'' in that crossover.]] |
3 | * Lex realizing that life is interconnected on a universal level, in defiance of entropy is why Superman has a ThouShaltNotKill philosophy - everytime someone dies, that universal bio-web becomes weaker, weakening everything, including life itself. Everything is connected indeed. |
4 | * During his last act of heroism, Superman flies off at sub-sonic speed, since any faster would knock everyone down -- but notice when he reaches the end of Earth's atmosphere, he flies fast with a burst of light. That's Superman ''breaking the luminal barrier'', since he's flying ''faster than the speed of light''; he takes far less than 8 minutes to reach the Sun. |

7 | * Many people see [[spoiler: Doomsday Jimmy beating Superman]] as a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome. However, that may only have been possible because [[spoiler: Superman]] was rapidly being inverted from the powerful, intelligent person he normally is by the time [[spoiler: Jimmy]] turned up to fight him. Given what happened in the main continuity, if [[spoiler: Superman]]'s handicap had not had some time to work on him, it might well have been that [[spoiler: Jimmy]] would have been able to minimize the damage, but [[spoiler: Supes]] would have beaten him to death in the process. |

10 | * Something seems odd when Batman (the world's greatest detective) doesn't make a single appearance in this story. Not even for a cameo, or to comfort one of his closest friends (in most continuities at least) as he's dying. |
11 | ** The series deliberately doesn't feature ''anyone'' from outside the Superman stories [[note]]Unless you count the Sun Eater[[/note]]. What's amusing is that ''ComicBook/AllStarBatmanAndRobinTheBoyWonder'' features tons of characters who are not a part of the Batman family, including Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, and Black Canary - [[CharacterShilling all of whom just exist to show off how awesome Batman is.]] |
