Line 57:
* [[Nineties Anti-Hero]]: Both Cyborg Superman and the Eradicator are pastiches of this 90's trend. {{spoiler|Only the Eradicator plays this straight. Cyborg Superman (aka Hank Henshaw) is a villain.}}
* [[Red Skies Crossover]]: The arc affected everyone on The [[DC Universe]]'s Earth, seeing as how their [[Big Good]] had just been killed. It got a nod in the lead-up to the [[Batman]] arc ''[[Knightfall]]''.
* [[Wham! Shot]]: Lois is shown holding a dying Superman in her arms after he faces Doomsday, and Matrix failed to provide backup support. She begs him to hold on until the paramedics come, as he murmurs if Doomsday is defeated. Jimmy Olsen stands in the background, hesitating on photographing this moment.
* [[Younger and Hipper]]: [[Superboy]] is a pastiche of this type of trend.
