Would have accelerated the boy too fast
Seeing how the train engineer is just fine and not flying out of the train, the train didn’t violently decelerate. Meaning that the train stopped over a long distance and thus Superman had enough time to just move the kid next to the rails without high acceleration.
I'm imagining superman stands there and leaves a superman shaped hole in the train, obliterating the driver and anyone else near the front, as the rest of the train sheers free and sends shrapnel at full speed to shred the kid to pieces.
I'm sure the passengers/conductors of the train are perfectly fine with it
I’m sure the deceleration of the people on the train was healthy.
I’m guessing in this particular comic the train was some kind of empty runaway train. Just to avoid raising such concerns. Even then, it seems like there would have been a less destructive way of stopping this thing. Like maybe flying into the train and pulling some kind of brake.
There was but the truth is it looks cool. He's stronger than a train.
Top left is the engineer and he's mostly worried about his hat.
Acceleration doesn't seem to matter 90% of the time in superhero universes. Also, if there was enough time to slow the train down there was enough time to get the kid off the tracks safely.
Unless you're Gwen Stacy, the only time physics worked as they should.
You're probably right so lets fill that train with Nazis and now your writing problem is solved.
Nazis - train theres gotta be a joke in there somewhere
So you're saying Superman put, or lured, the boy there in the first place, to give him plausible deniability for intentionally make nazi puree? I'm not sure he'd have waited for an excuse...
What about the acceleration of the passengers in the train?
I addressed that by making them all Nazis
Right? What's wrong with a little bit of life-threatening whiplash?
