What does Superman do when there is two catastrophies happening at the same time in two different places? We know he can't save everyone, but does he at least drop Wonder Woman and Batman off at site B so he can save as many at site A?
Also, stories where Superman fails to save everyone thread
Cooper Kelly
Dude, Superman hears everyone that's dying everywhere while he's on the john. I'm pretty sure the whole reason the league exists is so they can ration out these crises and Superman can take his dump in peace.
Jace Torres
Superman doesn't poop, you fuck.
Jeremiah Sanchez
There are other heroes around. He's just a guy helping where he can rather than some madman hellbent on saving everyone. He would go to the closer one unless there's a significant loss of life at the other (like burning building where firemen can probably handle it vs something bigger).
Chase Lee
Isn't there mixed canon on whether he hears it all the time or not?
Lucas Phillips
mostly depends on what the writer wants to emphasize at the time
Brandon Sanchez
It's hard to take "Superman can't save everyone" serious when he's having foot races with Flash and bench pressing planets.
Colton Carter
No, he has to block it, the clark kent persona is there to make him not go insane.
It's funny but one of the best explorations about this is when Bruce got Kryptonian powers and went crazy.
Brody Scott
I mean, I know it's basically unheard of in our world, but like, a massive earthquake in South America + The Yellowtone Volcano erupting.
Yellowstone's Volcano has made me lose sleep
Julian Reed
Johns is a fucking idiot. And that story was a shitty copy of Captain Atom's
Christopher Lewis
He couldn't. He'd kill millions with the force of his rectal railgun.
Caleb Bailey
nah
Ryan Ross
"Must There Be A Superman?"
Evan Butler
>but like, a massive earthquake in South America
I doubt Superman cares about earthquakes in Chile
Daniel Morgan
the earthquake itself, no. But the people who could die in it he does.
Michael Mitchell
There's always a way, user.
He stops both.
Isaiah Collins
> Rectal railgun Fucking kek
Kayden Bell
...
Alexander Sullivan
not always not everyone
Aaron Walker
Those were for charity, user.
Blake Williams
That wasn't a decision, he didn't know it happened until he died. The chronovore ate part of his life, minutes where he could have done something.
Jonathan Bell
>what is context The guy is giving him shit for having a secret identity at all and Superman is saying fuck off you don't know how guilty I already feel with it, don't give me shit. Whereas in the other, he's talking about overall the experience of having super-hearing to one of his best friends. Fucking mong
Wyatt Nguyen
That's literally what I said though, that it depends on why the writer is bringing up his super hearing. There's no specific right answer. It doesn't have to bother him all the time if they don't want it to.
Ethan Russell
I always liked this one as a sporty backup he could drive to JLA/JSA charity functions with Zatanna on his arm or something.
Noah Lopez
Oh I'm sorry I'm drunk I didn't read what you read right that image is also used in a lot of shitposting about how haircut superman is shit
Easton Taylor
Well I do generally use it to shitpost about Tomasi's Superman writing (and I don't really like the choice of that interpretation of the super hearing because it is kind of missing the point to me if you make being in Clark or Kara's body a burden in itself), but I was being legit this time.
