Superman vs Lucifer Morningstar

He can do it. Joker almost broke Superman's will in Action Comics. He fooled Kal-El into thinking the only means of saving a poisoned Lois would be to kill him(joker) so he can find out the cure. Had Batman not convinced Supes; Clark would have killed the Joker out of desperation. Had Supes done it he would have broken his oath of not taking another life and Supes' would have been broken. They found out it was all a farce after Lois made a complete recovery after Supes decided he would not kill Joker.

Kill Lois?

What Joker was trying to do is have Superman kill him for nothing since Lois was going to be ok anyway. Therefor the impact such a selfish act would have on Supes would have been unbearable.

Lucifer chats up superman and convinces him that it'd be in everyone's best interest if he just comitted suicide.

Piece of cake.

By killing Lois, he makes her a Martyr but by breaking Superman he takes down one of earths greatest heroes plus the obvious joke of irony.
