He can control the temperature of his heat vision.

Just after Crisis it was established he used a piece of the ship he came to earth on as a mirror for shaving, and *much* later he used Red Sun lamps to make him vulnerable enough to just use regular scissors and razors.

:eng101: tensile and sheer strength aren't particularly correlated, and the force created by bolt cutters might be sufficient to cut Superman's hair!

There's plenty of Captains, some Majors, Generals, Commanders and even a few Sergeants, but where are Corporal Cannonfodder, Lieutenant Fisticuffs, or Admiral Amoeba?

I always liked the episode in TAS where he knew he was placed in a dream state by the scarecrow because he couldn’t read. As a kid I thought this was absolutely genius (and true).
It's not true for everyone, I've definitely had a bunch of dreams where I could read things.
