Every time he did, he’d undo the other good things he’d done.
I don’t know about the rest of The World, but here in Amurka he’d be inundated with frivolous lawsuits.
Thanks for the answers everyone!
Not if we go by the movies. Everything he did before spinning around the world still happens, which is why he has time to rescue Lois.
Weird memory: is that the story in which Superman is on Lex’s planet and unpowered, and when discovered pretends to be a statue? He’s carried away and one of the carriers remarks about his apparent body heat only to be told it was because he was out in the sun? If so, why the HELL would I remember something like that 
He does sleep. As I understand it, if he doesn’t occasionally let his brain go into REM, he gets a little nuts.
This was actually a plot point once. I didn’t read the whole arc, but I think he was not sleeping, and trying to use his powers in the most maximally effective way. But the longer he stayed awake the more obsessive and weird he got. I think Lois had to talk him down.
Get in his face and ask if he cares more about the “blue people” than… no wait, thats for a stupid GL scenario…never mind
If it’s the story I recall (Bronze Age) he snapped a little and decided he needed to kill off Clark Kent to free himself. Set up some nifty deathtraps that would have done the job if Clark was really just humna.
Yeah, John Stewart was quite a bit more militant in the beginning than he is now.
Nowadays, it is the convention that deep down he is Clark Kent, and Superman is a persona that he assumes, as opposed to Batman; in his mind he IS Batman; it is Bruce Wayne who is the persona.
Wrong GL.
You’re right.
John’s not even in this story.
IIRC, John wasn’t introduced until a few issues later.
I guess I need to go polish my Power Battery.
This essentially the premises of Red Son wherein Supes start a Stalinist totalitarianism. Everyone becomes fed up with his Big Brother complex, and Luthor stops him a note comparing him to Brainiac.
