Line 165:
* [[All Just a Dream]]: The first issue after the [[The Death of Superman|Death and Return]] story line had Lois waking up to find Clark getting out the shower, causally commenting that she must have had a bad dream. Based on her reaction, the TV show [[Dallas]] was indeed broadcast in the DCU.
* [[Alternate Continuity]]: Between the various media adaptations and the "[[Elseworld|Imaginary Stories]]", arguably more than any other fictional character.
* [[Amazon Admirer]]: Part of the reason that Superman / Clark Kent is attracted to [[Lois Lane]] is ''not'' that she's a damsel in distress, but because she is always brave and willing to find the truth in a story. Later incarnations also have Lois reveal that her dad, General Lane, ensured that she received martial arts training.
* [[Ambiguously Jewish]]: Superman's background story is a pastiche of [[Moses in the Bulrushes|Moses]] and the immigrant Jewish experience, with a bit of [[Take That]] towards the Nazi idea of the Ubermensch.
* [[Anti-Hero Substitute]]: During ''[[The Death of Superman]]'' arc, Eradicator was essentially Superman if he were a [[Nineties Anti-Hero]].
