  • The glitches. ProtonJon, in his Let's Play of the game, has counted the number of glitches he's encountered while playing. As of the episode covering Stage 10, the tally stands at one hundred and six. And still counting.
  • Getting shot to heal yourself.
  • Reprogammation. Basically, Superman goes up to an enemy, and says "We're on the same side now!". It completely works. This is made funnier by the fact the objectives often require you to kill the turned enemy anyway. It becomes even funnier when you realize you can only use this item on Dark Shadows... which don't move, so they can't kill any enemies for you.
  • After you defeat Brainiac for the first time, Superman escapes through the window, but not before hitting the wall.
  • Originally, the game was going to feature an appearance by Bizarro. There was a sound clip of him saying "Hello! Me superhero! Me rescue animals!" His voice sounded more than a little off... which made it all the more hilarious.
  • If you're familiar with the source material, knocking Darkseid out and taking him to the police is so ridiculously out of place it's kind of hilarious.
  • The tie-in comic has Lois get abducted by Bizarro. Jimmy Olsen exclaims that she's about to hit him with her car. Lois reasons the car won't hurt Bizarro... and the car totals itself as it hits him.
  • The tie-in comic ends with Brainiac exclaiming that he will be the first one to fight Superman. Brainiac is the Final Boss of the game... and he has no AI and he makes no attempt at all to actually fight you.
