12 Evil And Murderous Superman Versions From Animated History – Explored

The multiverse notion had an impact on the DC Universe as well. There are a number of intriguing narratives with unusual twists. The narratives are spine-chilling and enough to drive DC fans insane, from The Flashpoint Paradox to The Injustice. Character twists are amazing in different scenarios, especially with Superman. Superman is one of the only DC characters that is more akin to a hazardous weapon than a hero.

Unlike Batman, Superman has frequently been molded or mind-controlled by villains, resulting in a global disaster. He was even mind-controlled by Poison Ivy, which is unfortunate for him because he is far beyond her reach. That is enough to show that if Superman joins the squad, the balance of power shifts dramatically. There have been various DC Universes where Superman has turned into a catastrophic threat rather than a heroic, with inexplicable outcomes, particularly in the Injustice tale.

It goes without saying that stopping him requires more than a little effort, which is what keeps the stories intriguing. It is difficult to beat him in the plain fight, and bringing him down necessitates a variety of techniques, which is why characters like Batman exist. So hold your horses, because, in today’s video, we will go over 12 storylines or parallel universes in which Superman is mankind’s major foe.

HANK HENSHAW [REIGN OF SUPERMAN (2019)]

Hank Henshaw was a member of the crew of the LexCorp space shuttle Excalibur, which had crashed during space exploration. Hank and the other three Excalibur crew members, including his wife Terri, were exposed to cosmic radiation, which caused their shuttle to collapse. Two crew members’ human bodies were destroyed as a result of their radiation exposure.

Apart from Henshaw’s hair becoming white, he and Terri were unaffected by the radiation, and the team went to Metropolis in the hope of using LexCorp facilities to treat their altered crew members. Henshaw’s corpse had begun to disintegrate fast, while Terri was phasing into an alternative realm. Henshaw was able to use the LexCorp facilities to save Terri with Superman’s assistance, but he died shortly thereafter. Despite the fact that his physical body had died, he was able to transfer his mind onto the LexCorp mainframe.

Henshaw, now capable of controlling technology, was able to appear in a robotic form to his wife. Henshaw blamed Superman for his and the crew’s demise but with Superman dead as a result of his battle with Doomsday, he was unable to exact direct vengeance on the man he had grown to see as his adversary, and so attempted to damage Superman’s reputation.

To that goal, the Cyborg claimed to be Superman reborn, constructing a cybernetic body with biological sections genetically similar to Superman and technical components made of Kryptonian alloys utilizing knowledge gleaned from the birthing matrix.

In addition to smashing a Superman memorial monument in front of the Daily Planet, the Cyborg banished Doomsday into space and protected President Obama from an assassination attempt. The White House endorsed Cyborg as the “real” Superman as a consequence of the latter event, and he presented the President with a communications device. When asked by Lois Lane, the Cyborg said that his memory was “blurry,” but that he could see a “spaceship on a farm.” The surname ‘Kent.’

Following the death of Superman, this  Cyborg Superman aka Henry “Hank” Henshaw was one of four substitutes for the Man of Steel Unlike the others, he veered off course immediately, becoming a worldwide menace through alliances with Mongul, the Manhunters, and the Sinestro Corps. He later engaged in a fearsome battle with Superman and was finally defeated by him.

While the Justice League holds a clandestine meeting to decide whether or not to assist Luthor with his world’s situation, Luthor conceals the Quantum Trigger someplace on board the Watchtower.

The five surviving main members of the team reconvene at the Crime Syndicate headquarters to discuss their Earth’s persistent and increasing resistance to the Syndicate’s control, and that they have been operating on a quantum-powered weapon that would compel the world governments to surrender what little control they have left to the Syndicate or face possible global annihilation.

Darkseid would then take over the shattered globe under the pretext of restoring order. Lex Luthor reveals that he is aware of Superman’s absence and is curious as to what is going on.

He was struck and rendered unconscious by a weapon aboard the ship, and Granny Goodness brainwashed him into believing Darkseid was his adoptive father. Superman wakes in a red-lit military detention cell. General Hardcastle enters the chamber and says that the lights negate Superman’s abilities and that he is merely kept alive to justify his deeds.

Superman tells them they may do anything they want to Darkseid.

BIZARRO (JUSTICE LEAGUE UNLIMITED)

Bizarro was a subpar clone of Superman. He was a terrible person who was more misguided and exploited than maliciously malevolent. Lex Luthor created Bizarro as the prototype for an army of “Supermen.” The clone initially resembled and functioned like Superman, but he was unaware of his alter identity Clark Kent, having rescued the actual Clark from a precipice.

Bizarro was aware that he was Superman, but the look of the genuine Superman perplexed him, leading him to assume that the real Man of Steel was an impostor. When Bizarro witnessed Superman save Lois, he understood he was the true duplicate and accepted the reality that “I am not Superman.”

Finally, he did something extremely Superman-like by killing himself so that Superman and Lois might escape the exploding laboratory. Lois worried if Bizarro could have survived, and Superman said that he was doubtful because he had never been in such a violent explosion. Bizarro, on the other hand, survived the explosion and found himself destitute in the wilderness.

He started looking for solutions all across the world. Superman then transported Bizarro to another planet capable of supporting life but devoid of any intelligent beings. Superman stated that Bizarro could live in that world and guard it in the same way that he defends Earth. Despite his lack of intelligence, Bizarro was observant enough to recognize he was being set up when he remarked that how the planet was completely barren.

For a while, Bizarro was happy in his new world, even reconstructing Metropolis out of rocks and trees and remaking the Fortress of Solitude, from which he would pretend to “rescue” the trees from destruction in the same manner as Superman would save humans in danger. Bizarro is outraged and resolved to obtain an apology after witnessing a phony picture of Superman and his buddies laughing at him.

Mr. Mxyzptlk delivered Bizarro to Earth, where he initially faced Lois and subsequently fought Superman, refusing to listen to reason. Superman appeared and saved him, revealing that he was not the enemy and that Mxyzptlk was the source of the problem.

After that, Bizarro was back to his tranquil and satisfying world. He returned to Earth and joined forces with Giganta to free Grodd from jail. Bizarro subsequently became a member of Grodd’s Legion of Doom. Grodd and Luthor experimented on him here before altering Bizarro’s mentality so that he would do anything Luthor demanded. Bizarro, who was controlled by reverse logic, was a potent tool for the Legion to utilize.

LORD SUPERMAN (JUSTICE LEAGUE)

Superman was a member of the Justice Lords in a parallel reality. Until President Lex Luthor killed the Flash, Justice Lord Superman’s backstory mirrored that of his Justice League counterpart. Superman soon invaded the White House. While his colleagues were fighting the Secret Service, Superman approached President Luthor in the Oval Office.

Notwithstanding Superman’s claims of corruption and misuse of power, President Luthor strongly objected and said arrogantly that he would find a way to evade prosecution. After being deeply moved by the President’s comments, Superman announced that if being a “hero” meant that feuding and fighting had to continue, he was done with it.

The President was then executed on the spot by Superman using his heat vision. Following the killing of President Luthor, the Justice Lords spent the next two years enforcing their version of “peace” on Earth through severe control. Justice Lord Superman continued to lobotomize all of Earth’s criminals and super-villains with his heat vision. As a consequence, they all transformed into innocuous walking vegetables who obediently inhabited the world’s jails, such as Gotham City’s Arkham Asylum.

Although Lord Superman’s firm belief  was that their activities were justified, many people on Earth were dissatisfied with their “guardianship.” With the repression of the free press and the world’s governments, Lord Superman was frequently subjected to hopeless appeals from the current President as well as scathing assaults from former Daily Planet reporter Lois Lane. Lord Superman’s repeated promises that the Lords’ dominion over Earth was merely transitory did nothing to assuage his critics.

Justice Lord Batman debuted his interdimensional transit gadget, which could be used to observe and enter other dimensions, two years after the universal conquest of Justice Lords. The Lords’ initial use of the machine sent them to a parallel reality in which their Justice League counterparts still had the Flash as a member, fought Lex Luthor, and never gained control of Earth.

The Justice Lords took over the Watchtower of the Justice League after learning that Lex Luthor had escaped from jail. Justice Lord Superman was on his way to assassinate Luthor, just as he had assassinated the President. Lord Superman found himself in combat with the Flash, and he held his own for the majority of the time. Lord Superman, on the other hand, quickly gained an upper hand.

Despite his short hesitation, he was still eager to murder Flash. Before he could do so, Superman and Lex Luthor halted him by deploying an energy disruptor on the Justice Lord, depriving him of his abilities. Lord Superman cautioned that anything Luthor did after that was in the hands of the other Kryptonian.

Superman recognized that it was a steep price to pay, but it was preferable to the alternative. Lord Superman was kidnapped by the Justice League’s Batman, and the other Justice Lords were quickly restored to their own realities.

Many others were haunted by Justice Lord Superman’s acts in the years that followed, acting as a continuous reminder of what may happen if his counterpart ever went too far. During the Cadmus Crisis, Lex Luthor and Brainiac merged to build an android clone of Justice Lord Superman to battle Superman.

SUPERIOR SUPERMAN (RED SON)

A little child being pursued by a band of bullies in the Soviet Union in 1946. Svetlana, a little girl, defends him by driving them away. He tells her that he was terrified not for his own safety, but for the safety of the bullies, before displaying superhuman strength and the ability to fly. Svetlana assures the youngster that he may utilize his abilities to benefit the country if he so desires.

A decade later, in 1955, the Soviet Union published a propaganda film depicting an extraterrestrial superhuman under the command of Joseph Stalin, dubbed the “Soviet Superman” by the American media. Dwight D. Eisenhower, President of the United States, assigns Lex Luthor the responsibility of devising a countermeasure against him.

Eventually, Superman saves Metropolis from a satellite disaster, which leads to Lex’s wife, Lois Lane, earning an interview with him. She shows him a top-secret document that takes him to a hidden gulag where he discovers a dying Svetlana, who was incarcerated there because she knew Superman’s true identity. Enraged, Superman confronts and kills Stalin.

As a consequence, Superman now becomes the new leader of the Soviet Union, promising to utilize his talents for good and to expand the Soviet state’s authority. Superman spreads communist principles all over the world, bringing the Korean War to a close and collapsing the Berlin Wall, which the Western powers erected to keep him at bay.

He also forms an alliance with Princess Diana / Wonder Woman of Themyscira and develops a deep bond with her. Meanwhile, Luthor reveals “Superior Man,” a clone of Superman created by extracting Superman’s cells from the wrecked satellite and remotely powering it with an orb of energy before sending it out to meet Superman.

The two superhumans struggle until Luthor overloads the clone with too much energy, causing it to degrade as the fight proceeds until it ultimately collapses and disappears. Superman is shocked by Luthor’s actions. In 1967, Superman repels an attack by the extraterrestrial robot Brainiac, retraining him to become his advisor and using his technology to assist Warsaw Pact countries while lobotomizing Soviet dissidents.

However, he is unable to stop Brainiac from reducing Stalingrad before beating him, and he is also forced to deal with the militant Batman, a survivor of the secret gulag who curses Superman for the loss of his family.

Luthor is elected President of the United States, ushering in a new era of wealth that challenges Soviet supremacy. After discovering Abin Sur’s wrecked spaceship and body, Luthor assigns Colonel Hal Jordan the duty of determining the great power of the green ring discovered on the alien’s body, resulting in the establishment of the Green Lantern Corps.

Jordan launches an attack on Superman in 1983, which is momentarily thwarted by Wonder Woman, who tries one last time to resolve the fight before declaring that Themyscira would be closed to all men forever. Holding Brainiac’s encouragement, Superman travels to the White House to face Luthor, only to discover Lois in the bottled city of Stalingrad.

He didn’t get a command from Superman to reverse the procedure. Realizing his blunder, Superman withdraws, but Brainiac destroys the smaller city and continues the attack, disclosing that the indoctrination failed and he had been using Superman to dominate the globe for himself. Brainiac is defeated by Superman and Luthor, but his ship is programmed to self-destruct if he is defeated. Superman pilots the ship into outer space, where he seems to perish in the explosion.

Lois has been gathering information about the new Supermen from various sources in order to do her investigation.

At a press conference, Lex Luthor exposes the world to a new Superman, whom Lois finds is a clone – Superboy developed by Dr. Dabney Donovan. The conversation is interrupted, however, by the Eradicator, Steel, and Cyborg Superman, who fight until both the Eradicator and Cyborg Superman flee the battle.

Meanwhile, the Eradicator begins transferring his DNA to Superman’s dead body in the Fortress of Solitude. Steel pursues the Eradicator to the Fortress, where he discovers that Superman is now through a regeneration cycle, and the two battle. The battle is streamed on Lois’ phone.

Lois realizes that the Eradicator is a hologram produced in the matrix of Superman’s spacecraft to protect Superman. The conflict is eventually put down when a depowered Superman, likewise dressed in a black costume, is revived. Lex and Lois realise, thanks to Henshaw’s technology, that Henshaw himself is being controlled by Darkseid of Apokolips, who built Doomsday and coordinated its invasion on Earth.

Superman, Superboy, and Steel are on their way to Metropolis. Lex dispatches Lois to the Watchtower while he uses a Mother Box to save the League. Darkseid continues to punish Henshaw for failing to keep Superman dead and tries to open a gateway for his arrival using the Mother Box infused with Henshaw.

Henshaw, on the other hand, pulls out the Mother Box inside him, deactivating Darkseid’s influence over the Cyber Corps. Superman appears just as Henshaw is about to murder Lois. Henshaw holds Superman responsible for his wife Terri’s death.

Superman finally regains his sun-given powers and kills Henshaw by stabbing him in the forehead with a crystal from the Fortress of Solitude holding the Eradicator software. Henshaw’s death also deactivates the Cyber Corps and returns them to normal operations.

Cyborg learns more about Apokolips, Darkseid, and the invasion plot. The invasion is a precursor to Earth’s terraforming. To save Superman from a Parademon, Batman permits himself to be caught. Green Lantern comes up with the brilliant notion of robbing Darkseid of his Omega Beams by destroying his eyes.

BLACK SUPERMAN – SUPERMAN THE ANIMATED SERIES

In Superman: The Animated Series, a version of Superman is an adversary. He was formerly a Metropolis hero, but after failing to save Lois from a car bombing, he sought to become a fascist dictator and joined forces with Lex Luthor. That Superman counterpart was from Krypton and found his talents and origin, but he had love feelings for Lois Lane that he was unaware of.

When Lois was killed in a vehicle bombing by Intergang and Superman was a split second too late to save her, he was horrified and realized he had feelings for Lois that he had never felt before, unlike his counterpart who had saved his Lois in time. After realizing that being a superhero wasn’t enough to keep Metropolis secure, Superman donned a black suit, linked up with Lex Luthor, and became the Dictator of Metropolis.

Superman implemented fascist legislation, forcing the Daily Planet and S.T.A.R Labs out of business and displacing a large number of people. People revolted, and several were arrested. The Rebels were persecuted by Superman and the fascist cops. Lois Lane inadvertently entered the parallel Superman’s reality and witnessed what happened. Lois fought the cops and subsequently ran into Superman.

He saved Lois from the security officers collapsing, brought her to his room, and revealed why he became a tyrant. Lois was outraged by his conduct and the fact that he would partner up with Lex Luthor. Luthor, Superman reasoned, would not do anything sly because he would be afraid of Superman. But it was shattered when Superman discovered that Luthor had attempted to murder Lois, and she brought him to a Rebel holding cell in the same tower where Superman lived.

They objected and yelled at him. But it hit home when Jimmy Olsen, a member of the Resistance, tossed a rock at Superman despite the fact that he was Superman’s pal. Enraged by the deception, Superman marched into Luthor’s headquarters, confronted him, and informed him of the problems associated with work.

Luthor retaliated by utilizing Kryptonite, which the Resistance had taken previously, to devise a plot to restrict Superman and was compelled to murder him in order to protect the people. Tragically, before they got to the building, Superman and the other Lois notified the Rebels of what was going to happen and sent them to Luthor’s Office to face him.

Luthor took off on his plane, but Superman pursued him. Superman destroyed Luthor’s plane, killing him in the process. Superman promised another dimension’s Lois that he would put things right in his reality.
