You are missing the point. If superman is supposed to be on the high-end of the idealistic scale, then such a scene is not coherent with that.
Yes, it is hopeful still, but Superman stories, as I think Morrison is describing them, are about acomplishing the impossible and having a happy ending. Bad things can happen, but tragedies can be stopped.
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
