What’s So Funny About Truth, Justice, and the American Way?
The Man of Steel presented until now in the DCEU isn’t the Man of Steel the fans have been waiting for. He is dark, he is brooding, and he is insecure. An adaptation of What’s So Funny About Truth, Justice, and the American Way? can put him on the right track.
In his absence, Metropolis welcomes some other types of heroes – the Elite, who simply kill all the criminals. And the population is glad about this – especially since the Man of Steel was killed by villains.
Superman is forced to return and, in a way, confront his former self – the one who didn’t know whether to help the people of Earth or leave them alone. And so he confront the Elite and he tricks everybody into believing that he has killed the villains.
In the end, he shows everybody that Manchester Black and his cronies are alive and that violence should never be taken to the extreme when dealing with any kind of baddies. So, yet again, this is another chance for Superman to become what the fans wanted him to be in the first place.
