Superman is one of the heroes who should absolutely never kill.

Check out the full quote below:

He believes the sanctity of life is of the utmost importance.

No matter what, you do not let anyone die, ever.

That is what Superman should be like.

With all the power he has, it would be easy for Superman to just kill villains.

However, his restraint and morals are what make him a true hero.

This new take on Superman’s origin story, Man of Steel, centers on young journalist Clark Kent/Kal-El, a being who came to Earth as a child from Krypton. Though he has trouble fitting in with his secret superpowers and questions his purpose in life, Clark is forced into action when fellow Kryptonian General Zod arrives on Earth hellbent on conquest. Clark is built by the values set upon him by his parents, Martha and Jonathan Kent, who adopted him as an otherworldly orphan, inadvertently raising him to become the hero humanity needs.
