No. They dont care if theyre the baddies.Fox after realizing they defended a white supremacist and slammed superman:

Fox news like that driveby poster who didnt read the full O.T.

That would require them to feel guilt.
I am unsure that is something Fox News knows about.
Or if there was food involved. Goku does like good food.
And it's actually a later poster version, the original art there dates to the mid-to-late '40s. Superman has been about this since the beginning.

What I wouldn't do to never have to hear the phrase "The American Way" ever again.
Seems to me that according to them if your not being a bigot, racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, or forcing religious views down others throats your not being a "Patriot" and demeaning the "Greatest country in the entire world!".

My Captain America
That to/too thing in the last panel is killing me
A lot of bad superhombres coming across from Krypton to this great nation.
Clark Kent as an illegal would be a crazy fucking story
He gets pulled over one night and they check his papers (which he has none of), and they throw em in jail. He has to stay in jail to keep his Clark Kent persona but also uses his powers to escape secretly to fight bad guys.
At the climax of the storyline Clark Kent gets deported legally and thrown on a plane, but afterwards Superman decides to come back, making him both legally and technically an illegal alien.
That's when the real shit starts, because Supes cant switch back to Clark Kent and it weighs heavily on his conscious about what does he fight in the US for.
The book ends with the final pages showing him deciding to go fight and protect another country

Setting aside...everything else, is the author defending the person touting a machine gun trying to kill these people superman is "wrongly" defending?
I got an idea for an opinion piece, maybe if I bigots and racists didn't threaten the lives of people in real life we wouldn't have to depict it in media.

I'm almost positive this is a find replace article from that run where he renounced his citizenship to not Obama.

Complicating this further, he's married to Lois Lane and has a son by her now. While Jonathan was born in the Fortress of Solitude, I think he's legally a citizen through his mother.
Sounds like it would make a bad story.

Is he blocking the bullets from mowing down defenseless human beings? What an absolute asshole.

that article is so bad I can only assume it's Fox News' Lorem ipsum template for new documents

I feel like this is what really pissed off the person who wrote that article. Not the fact that Superman was angry at the guy with the gun or whatever nonsense they wrote.

DC and Warner Bros can do that their is already a black super man Calvin Ellis of Earth 23 where he is also the president of the United States. That adds an extra layer of craziness since he is an illegal alien and president of the united states. Their is also Earth D superman. Man imagine if people like the person in this comic book knew about the Earth D heroes.
Huh that's a new one

And then he'd probably let them return to threaten the immigrants some more after he beats them up anyway;.
Oh look, people who don't read comic books are getting mad at comic books because of how they portray characters they only tangentially know from other media.
They sort of did this.
It's also sort of the plot to Justice Lords, only in that one, Superman just takes over everything because he's fucking Superman and you can't fight evil Superman with racism.

Just so they could get stronger and have them kill more people and give him a challenge

Is the writer of the Fox News piece not aware the article sounds like it's supporting terrorism?

"Look, it's a bird!"
"No, it's a plane!"
"No, it's an illegal alien!"
"They took our jobs!"
"Get him!

All of a sudden? Superman has been doing things like this sense the 90's, maybe even before then. It's why I hate those comments so much more. I doubt a single one of them ever read a superman book. When I saw this in the newest Action comics, I saw Superman doing what he always has, and what he always will do. Fucking Fox news.

This can't be real life
I read this like I would a manga. Just fuck my shit up
The first time I read All-Star Superman I was in a bad place.
It's not lame, even something as small as a comic book page can help.

Real talk, the fact Superman is literally an illegal immigrant (and refugee too actually) is way too good of an angle to not persue.
Lol I could imagine him hunkering down in Canada, or hell, even Mexico for an added sting.
FTFY.
