seriously though Kal had no choice but to kill Zod, not saying he will kill again in Man of Steel 2 or in Justice League but I have to believe that if given similar circumstances he will kill...
also Superman killing is the antithesis of Batman not killing
zod had it coming, really.. he was blood-lusted and bat-sh!t crazy at that point.. what was kal-el supposed to do? cover his eyes? fly him off to space? bring him to a desert? then what? zod was never gonna stop anyway.. superman's hand was pushed, he did what he had to and it was justified.. JUSTIFIED..
And that's why he's so bland and a hypocrite most of the times. Most writers takes the safe route with Kal instead of pushing his limits.
Don't get me wrong now, Superman is my all time favorite superhero, but most writers can't write him for shit, and 90% of the time he comes off as an hypocrite.
Best example, Superman killed Doomsday because there was no other way to stop him, trapped Darkseid in the Source Wall because there was no other way, yet he has the balls to question Diana and be mad at her after what Lord did to him and Sacrifice.
Most writers ***** and say Kal shouldn't kill, it's like they never picked an original or Golden Age book Superman.
Superman killing should be a last line of defense after he's exhausted all other possibilities. So no i don't Superman killing would be a bad thing. Now if he goes Punisher on out ass in every book, then there's a problem.
It's hilarious how so many people are hung up on Supes killing a megalomaniacal genocidal warlord who was pretty much dedicated to wiping the entire population of Earth from existence from a perceived slight against him.
But are also mad about the death toll, when there wouldn't have been anyone left to even make a death toll if he'd lost.
It was an unwinnable situation, but he made the right choice.
You don't agree with death penalty...
No problem killing if no other option...
Bats and Sups are hypocrites for having criminals thrown in jail...
so instead of death penalty, well let them sit in jail at tax payers expense forever or let them out to kill again?
Kill if no other option....but you just stated that you were against death penalty (oxymoron).
Bats and Sups are Hypocrits for throwing killers in jail.....well you dont want them dead so what else are you going to do with them Sir? let them run a daycare center? you must be a Republican.
I'm going to take a guess that him not agreeing with the death penalty is separate from having to kill in self-defense or the defense of others if you're in that type of situation.
And republicans tend to be for the death penalty. But looking at who posted this, I'm not surprised.

This thread is (good way/bad way) hilarious.
For all intents Supes is in law enforcement. Would you expect to read a story where a policeman has a moral code code against killing? A believable one anyway?
Supes' powers dont give him an automatic no kill clause. He has to decide whats best in each situation.
