What does Superman do when there is two catastrophies happening at the same time in two different places? We know he can't save everyone, but does he at least drop Wonder Woman and Batman off at site B so he can save as many at site A?

Also, stories where Superman fails to save everyone thread

Dude, Superman hears everyone that's dying everywhere while he's on the john. I'm pretty sure the whole reason the league exists is so they can ration out these crises and Superman can take his dump in peace.

>>83906097
Superman doesn't poop, you fuck.

There are other heroes around. He's just a guy helping where he can rather than some madman hellbent on saving everyone. He would go to the closer one unless there's a significant loss of life at the other (like burning building where firemen can probably handle it vs something bigger).
>>
>>83906097
Isn't there mixed canon on whether he hears it all the time or not?
>>
>>83906165
mostly depends on what the writer wants to emphasize at the time
>>
It's hard to take "Superman can't save everyone" serious when he's having foot races with Flash and bench pressing planets.
>>
>>83906165
No, he has to block it, the clark kent persona is there to make him not go insane.

It's funny but one of the best explorations about this is when Bruce got Kryptonian powers and went crazy.

>>83906164
I mean, I know it's basically unheard of in our world, but like, a massive earthquake in South America + The Yellowtone Volcano erupting.

Yellowstone's Volcano has made me lose sleep

Johns is a fucking idiot. And that story was a shitty copy of Captain Atom's
>>
>>83906153
He couldn't. He'd kill millions with the force of his rectal railgun.

>>83906253
nah

>but like, a massive earthquake in South America

I doubt Superman cares about earthquakes in Chile
>>
>>83906296
the earthquake itself, no. But the people who could die in it he does.
>>
>>83905999

There's always a way, anon.

He stops both.

That wasn't a decision, he didn't know it happened until he died. The chronovore ate part of his life, minutes where he could have done something.
>>
>>83906176
>what is context
The guy is giving him shit for having a secret identity at all and Superman is saying fuck off you don't know how guilty I already feel with it, don't give me shit. Whereas in the other, he's talking about overall the experience of having super-hearing to one of his best friends.
Fucking mong
>>
>>83906449
That's literally what I said though, that it depends on why the writer is bringing up his super hearing. There's no specific right answer. It doesn't have to bother him all the time if they don't want it to.

I always liked this one as a sporty backup he could drive to JLA/JSA charity functions with Zatanna on his arm or something.

Oh I'm sorry I'm drunk I didn't read what you read right that image is also used in a lot of shitposting about how haircut superman is shit
>>
>>83907510
Well I do generally use it to shitpost about Tomasi's Superman writing (and I don't really like the choice of that interpretation of the super hearing because it is kind of missing the point to me if you make being in Clark or Kara's body a burden in itself), but I was being legit this time.

That's why Superman robots were for.
