Anybody who thinks Doomsday is Superman's ultimate nemesis really doesn't know the character that well. I'd say his main nemesis are Lex, Zod, Brainiac, and Darkseid.But that's just the problem. Doomsday is just brute force. The idea that Superman would be afraid of something that can only punch him is an affront to his character. Superman isn't just a pile of muscle, he's got a genius intellect and a creative approach to problem-solving. A literally mindless punching machine shouldn't pose a significant threat to him at all. He should be able to think of a creative way to neutralize the threat, rather than just trying to punch back. Doomsday is just so, so much less than Superman that it was an insult to pass him off as Superman's ultimate nemesis.
The one thing about Doomsday that would scare Superman is that Doomsday would relentlessly destroy any civilians who got in his way. That's what Superman fears -- not his own death, but his failure to protect others. But it undermines that when Doomsday is monomaniacally targeting Superman himself and everyone else is just collateral damage.
Actually there have been 2 animated versions of Death of Superman, Doomsday, and The Death of Superman & Reign of the Supermen.And if one would just want to see "Doomsday done right", then I suggest, just to film "The Death of Superman" - it has been done as cartoon, now do the real-life-version of exactly that. Don't put it at the End of BVS, just film "The Death of Superman" - it's a no-brainer to create. You don't even need people to draw the storyboard, 'cause it's all in the comics.

That I know, JD, and maybe - if one wanted to tell a story, that is close to the original - one should have a look at these movies and then re-create it for the live-action-movies. It's just an idea.Actually there have been 2 animated versions of Death of Superman, Doomsday, and The Death of Superman & Reign of the Supermen.
Unless what interested them was different aspects of the many, many versions of "the original."That I know, JD, and maybe - if one wanted to tell a story, that is close to the original -
Now I want DC to do a tie-in/continuation comic, Superman & Lois '21.
I doubt it. While John Henry evolved into one of Superman and Lois' most interesting characters, he was best served as the former "lost alien" and his interaction with the man he initially tried to kill--the other "lost alien" Kal-El, along with his family's contrasting experiences with prime earth.That makes me wonder if we could have gotten a Steel spin-off if the CW hadn't moved away from big budget scripted series.
That's weird it's Corp, because it's short for corporation, it's not a corps like the Marines.I keep forgetting to mention that it bugged me that everyone kept pronouncing Luthor's company as 'core' instead of 'corp'.
Sure in this series, but I think the actor and character are good enough that they could find something else just interesting to do with him, and the same goes for Natalie and the actress who played her.I doubt it.

I like this suit better than the new one. Didn’t find the score fit for this scene as presented. Some bits, but not the whole thing.
I'm not sure if this will go into syndication, I don't think any of the Arrowverse shows haven't gone into syndication for quite a while now. I think TNT showed Arrow and possibly The Flash for a while, but I think they stopped years ago.Just saw the last 2 episodes last night. I really really loved this show. Its such a shame it was cut short. Tyler Hoechlin and Elizabeth Tulloch are the best Superman and Lois since Reeve and Kidder. Such a wonderful and inspiring show! Much thanks to the cast, writers, producers, and the rest of the crew! I hope this show just finds a bigger and bigger audience in syndication. It deserves it!
