The Death and Return of Superman is a licensed beat 'em up that was developed by Blizzard and published by Sunsoft. It is an adaptation of the DC Comics story arc The Death of Superman, where Doomsday comes to Earth and kills Superman and four superpowered beings then coming out and claiming to be Superman resurrected. These beings are now known as Cyborg Superman, the Eradicator, the Conner Kent version of Superboy, and Steel. Are any of them actually Superman? And what do all the punk-looking enemies have to do with all of that? You'll have to play the game and witness all the obligatory defeats to find out.
In this run, KusogeMan plays the Sega Genesis version and uncovers the mystery behind the actual status of Superman in record time, allowing him to maintain dominance over all other who try to claim his mantle.

WARNING: This run contains sequences of strobing lights which may not be suitable for those with photosensitivity issues. These sequences can be found in parts of the run that involve Superboy's super move.
