For the comic:[]

For the film:[]

  • Angst? What Angst?: Superman, upon learning that he's dying, merely proceeds to quietly put his affairs in order.
    • The same applies to Lex concerning his imminent execution.
  • Harsher in Hindsight: As mentioned on the main page, writer Dwayne McDuffie died suddenly of complications from emergency heart surgery the day before the film was released on DVD. Made all the more poignant because the film concerns Superman facing his mortality, and he had been giving interviews about the film mere days before.
  • Nightmare Fuel: Parasite is this, in spades.
