Go To

1* FanNickname: One of the more endearing nicknames for the ''New 52'' Superman was "Superbro", more or less because he was a bit more youthful and relatable. After the events of ''Reborn'', the name has been amended to be [[spoiler:"[=SuperDadBro=]" or just plain old "Superdad"]]
2* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments:
3** [[spoiler: History merges the classic Superman tale with New 52, including the birth of Jon, as Perry White and Jimmy Olson are there to coo over baby Jon. On a meta-level, a lot of what happened with New 52 Superman still happened, just with re-merged Superman.]]
4** In the ''Aftermath'', Clark back at the Planet. Little details, such as a pinned Post-It note reminding him he has bowling with Jimmy and Steve Lombard, which in itself is a small heartwarming moment since Lombard is the JerkJock of the office, showing he and Clark really do like each other.
5* ItWasHisSled: Due to the fact that the ending of the story alters ''the entire DC Universe'', everyone largely knows that [[spoiler: the two Supermen fuse and expand the timeline]].
6* NightmareFuel: [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mxyreborn.jpg Mxyzptlk's design]] in Superman #19, which abandons his usually flat and lanky look for something more akin to a Kewpie Doll, squat and bloated with an unnerving The Grinch-like grin and always sticking his tongue out for some reason.
7* UnexpectedCharacter: Nobody expected that [[spoiler:the fake Clark Kent was Mr. Mxyzptlk]].
