The characters seem to think his actions are cool and it’s too bad more isn’t done with say, Cyborg, who is a bit shocked in this issue. The lunacy of the issue is further pushed as Superman bugs out and nearly kills Flash and nobody freaks out about it. The battle is a bit of a throwaway sequence too – although it’s a fun one to read – since Flash can just run away and save the girl without coming to blows.
