Joker notwithstanding, Superman immediately just doubles down on saving as many lives as he can. This works out fine for a while until the US Government decides to bomb some terrorist base knowing that a few dozen innocent civilians were going to die in the process. Superman intercepts the bombs and destroys them. No one dies. This pisses off the US Government who decide in a galaxy brain move that they need to coerce Superman by threatening Martha & John Kent inside a Mirror dimension made by Mirror Master. That is what sets him off. ...Superman literally establishes himself as the one and only authority on Earth within 5 years of killing Joker. He didn't suddenly change because of the US Government. He had been "I'm the only one who can decide what is best for Earth" before that. The "going insane" is in reference to him deciding he is the one who must decide what is best for everybody. And then there's the whole "Superman kills Green Arrow for being a threat to Martha & John Kent despite Green Arrow not being an actual threat to them and only accidentally hurting them BECAUSE of Superman" bit. The whole Mirror Master thing is in response to Superman trying to become the dictator of Earth, and Mirror Master pretty specifically adheres to not harming them beyond the initial capture. It's a desperation tactic in response to what Superman is doing. --- Seplito Nash, Smelling Like the Vault since 1996 Step FOUR! Get Paid! <cite>StealThisSheen posted [p:979011445] in Would a su...
