Superman #701 (siskoid.blogspot.com)

4. Heart Breaker, Dream Maker, Life Taker

Same issue, Page Twelve.

This one takes a whole page to be terrible.

AWE-some.

As Supes is walking calmly down the street, he passes an elderly man sitting on his porch. The man calls inside to his wife(?), telling her that his medical uncomfortability is probably just heartburn. Superman just walks right the heck onto his front porch, stares at the dude’s chest and tells him that his heart is beating erratically, and he should see a doctor, “sooner rather than later”.

And then (key moment here) SUPERMAN LEAVES! HE JUST WALKS AWAY!!! He doesn’t fly the guy to a hospital or run and get a paramedic. No, he just goes off on his merry way and leaves that guy to maybe die waiting for emergency services. Also, having Superman walk up and tell you that you’re probably about to die probably ISN’T great for your heart.
