From Nova Annual #1, this page always seemed uplifting to me for some reason.

Things Superman could do to improve the lives of the people in that comic, with varying degrees of ultraviolence and superdickery:
* Spend an hour using x-ray vision to locate and destroy all of the army's weapons, thus putting them on equal footing with the people they've been oppressing.
* Fly the dictator to the other side of the planet and drop him, naked, in a country where no one knows him and he doesn't speak the language. Chances are, by the time he gets home he'll no longer be president.
* Rip off the dictator's head and have a nice long chat with his 2nd in command on the subject of civil rights and fair elections. MaybeIr arrange some pro-american-business reforms to keep the US government and, by extension, the rest of the world happy.
* Use his fame and influence to call attention to human rights abuses in 3rd world countries and endorse American politicians that actually give a poo poo.
What he actually does in comics:
* Make some speech about his role in human affairs, then fly away and leave innocent people to suffer and die for the sake of his ideals.
All that has been done by non-supermen IRL and it didn't work.

Like every other company has made gritty Superman and Batman already, so when DC does it themselves, it's just really weird.

Not that I didn't think it was a stupid death scene, but what other characters have died by hitting their head on a rock wrong so that their neck breaks?
The Million Dollar Baby.
