In that example, who were the other lives?

Lois, Martha and John Kent, and really the fate of the entire world. Action Comics 825, where Gog pretty much owns everyone but Doomsday.

Gogs

plural. 😛

a kryptonite poisoned, heart attack suffering superman walked through plenty of them before being put down.

So he had a choice between saving his friends & family or saving the rest of the world?

Walked through them while they were all clinging to him like babies before bringing him down, yeah.

😬 That was kinda lame.

wait...what? Supes can shoot planet sized heat vision? Or is this from the sun amped thing?

The latter.

Supes wouldn't kill. Not even for Lois. I remember Superman being extremely desperate to save Lois's life after the Joker poisoned her. The Joker told him that the only way to save Lois was killing him. Supes didn't and Lois was healthy next morning. All Joker wanted was to break Supes down by having him kill.

no, he can do it easily enough... gimme a sec and ill get the scan...

That was a superman from like 10 years ago( a lot weaker)and last I checked the sun still exists.

Didn't he warm a planet or something like that with his HV?

Yes he did

ok, here it is:

also, at one point gog offered him the ability to go back and save krypton, all he had to do was sacrifice one life. he refused.

Supes stomps.

Sounds like Superman is a dumbass.

If he was a regular person and a foreign army threatened to take over his land, rape his woman and enslave his kids I guess he wouldn't kill anyone.....because it would lessen the value of their lives?? Taking another life to protect one doesn't decrease its value, it increases it.

Superman is French.

he's a hero. heroes save lives. he refuses to put his personal feelings and wants above those of others.

fact is, he's not a normal person. he doesn't have to kill to win a war.

Ditto. & these situations are still different from choosing to save a good life or that of a criminal like Lex. & doing all that tuff guy shit while being poisoned w/K and having a heart attack is one of the reasons people hate Supes. That's the dumbest feat I've ever heard of. The writer should be placed in a stock.

Superman fought and even led the Asgardian army and even helped them win the war against Hades without taking a single life.

😉

So was Supes sun amped or not? He looks yellow and that can't be super nova heat.

a person can't be good and then be tough when they have to be?
