- Demographically Inappropriate Humour:
- An example so blatant, even the cast brings it up:Lois: (While looking at a photo of Superman) Nice 's'.
Clark: Excuse me?
Lois: Right here. (Points at the "S" symbol on Superman's chest) - Young Clark informs Lana Lang about how he is seeing through things, she asks if he's looked towards the girls' locker room.
- An example so blatant, even the cast brings it up:
- Hilarious in Hindsight:
- Young Clark informs Lana Lang about how he is seeing through things; she asks if he's looked towards the girls' locker room. This ended up becoming Hilarious in Hindsight just five years later, when in the Smallville episode "X-Ray", Clark discovers his x-ray vision by accident and ends up inadvertently seeing into the girls' locker room...directly at Lana.
- One of the names Martha considers for baby Kal-El is "Christopher." Years later, Superman and Lois end up adopting Lor-Zod, whom the couple names "Christopher Kent." (Doubles as a Mythology Gag.)
- The ending of Superman simply staring at Luthor who becomes enraged at his silence is very similar to the ending of Lex Luthor: Man of Steel released nearly a decade later.
- Memetic Mutation: "Nice 'S'".
- Moral Event Horizon: Brainiac condemns the population of Krypton to a horrible death by hiding the fact that the planet was closer to exploding than even Jor-El knew, because he considered his existence and the knowledge he contained more important even when Jor-El had a practical means to evacuate some to safety.
