Ah, Superman. The universal symbol of goodness and using might for right. He is truly a man that can do no wrong, right? Or is that just what he wanted us to believe?
As it turns out, in Superman's 80-ish years in comics, he has certainly taken the low road in terms of morality. When he isn't snapping Zod's neck and punching out Hitler, Superman can often be found tormenting Jimmy Olsen and accusing Batman of witchcraft. So without further ado, here are 10 instances when Superman was a Super Jerk.
10. Thirsty Thursday
I know that flying around and saving Metropolis daily can build up thirst, but don't you think that hogging the city's water supply and keeping it from parched citizens is a little overkill?
9. Superman's Training Regime
I guess you can say that his workout methods are off the rails! Hehe... I'll see myself out.
8. He's a Super Nice Guy, I Swear!
Jeez, I guess somebody doesn't take rejection well. All he needs now is a super-fedora and a super-neckbeard.
7. Not Such a Super Dad
Poor, poor Jimmy Olsen. Not only does he idolize a guy who wears his underwear on the outside, but that guy is a complete prick to him.
6. Superman is STILL Thirsty
Looks like Supes is at it again. He just can't get enough of that water, even at the expense of Jimmy and Aquaman.
5. How "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" Ends
I know it's a bit of a cop-out. But hey, that's Hollywood for ya.
4. Super Extortion
Superman is a true American hero. Or at least a capitalist one.
3. Superman's Still Salty
It looks like Superman doesn't want to be "friends," Lois.
2. OK, Now This is Just Plain Abusive
Wow. Superman really, really doesn't take rejection well.
1. Superman Basically Becomes Hitler
OK, what the hell, DC? Why am I supposed to be rooting for this guy again?
