Yay, an actual response that acknowledges Superman won't sit there and not use his speed.

Here is the problem, you say if he uses his seed how can he tell illusions. Thing is, if he uses his speed Loki won't have time to create illusions.
while Supes is still vulnerable to magic
To a point, yes. Though people tend to make mistakes and think he is as vulnerable to it as any normal person. They even did this with post crisis Supes.
nothing about Supes' character indicates that he would charge in with fists swinging - that's totally against his M.O. Loki, on the other hand, has loads of experience dealing with strong boyscouts flying around really fast.
Which comic does Superman discuss his M.O and talk about how he'd just never charge in with his fists? People assume he is against it because he is against killing, but why?
Okay, please explain to me the following logic: Superman is a nice guy, yes? Not just a normal nice guy, but pretty friggin nice. He would want to minimize casualties and collateral damage in a fight, right? I think you can agree that is within his personality. So, with all that in mind, why wouldn't he want to end a fight as quickly as possible? People seem to think he has this fetish where he loves getting hit by powerful attacks, but no..that isn't the case.
Or, to take it one step further, basic knowledge tells us Loki is a magic user. If Superman knows he is vulnerable to magic and is facing a magic user..why is he not using his speed to prevent the person wielding a force he is vulnerable to from using that power to kill him? You would have to believe Superman has a death wish.
