I actually really like Superman in the story. He’s not the modern take on “Superman but evil.” He’s more or less the same guy he normally is, just less trusting of others to put it mildly. I think the biggest difference with his personality is that he feels much more intelligent than normally is in mainline stories. Probably because Miller leans into how his upbringing, political ideology, and powers could create a fiercely smart Superman. His intellect is overall used as a foil to Luthor’s. Regardless, there’s neat moments I appreciate with Superman.

Like when Superman meets Wonder Woman, recognizes she doesn’t speak Russian, flies to some library in Stalingrad or whatever, learns to speak Ancient Greek fluently, and flies back to Wonder Woman, all in about 10 seconds.
