Young Justice Season 3 Deaths

Through the last couple of episodes, Nightwing has compared superboy to big blue, superman I presume and this strikes up an interesting question, do they intend on killing superman off.


From Superboys introduction in season 1 him taking over as superman has been suggested and we even got a scenario like that in the episode where everyone is stuck inside a mental training exercise.
In counseling with Black Canary Superboy admitted that he liked being Superman even though all his friends were dead, he was quite literally made for the role.

Superman Season 3 Death Flags


Asked  To Be Conner's Best Man
A major death flag in my opinion is asking superman to be his best man by setting up an engagement like that it leaves space for his absence through a connection to a series regular like superboy if he were to leave an empty chair and Conner and M'gann's wedding we'd feel the sorrow through Conner because most of Young Justice does not give him a lot of screen time we can only feel the loss through Conner.

Superman Has A Son In This Universe 
The Son, named Jonathan Kent I presume is a good indicator why have Superman and two Superboy's, I don't know if there is a DC universe in which this scenario exists but I do no killing of Superman would allow Conner to be Superman and Jonathan to be Superboy.


Superman Makes Scripts Hard

Young Justice is just that young justice and order to allow Sidekicks sorry I mean proteges to have any shine you constantly have to have their older counterparts preoccupied with problems that don't allow them to deal with the main problems presented by the script. With certain incarnations of Superman, this is a more extreme problem than most especially when you have a plot that sometimes takes part in Metropolis and has villains like Lex Luthor and Darkseid that Superman would typically be expected to deal with.

You constantly have to ask yourself why doesn't superman deal with this and one of the ways to deal with this issue is one make superman less OP, the Young Justice superman is not an incarnation that could spend thousands of years in the sun he has been shown to need oxygen the Young Justice Superman can't breathe in space he's not the superman who can hear Jimmy's signal in the vacuum of space and traverse across the universe in time to respond.
Another way is to write Superman out of plots or as aforementioned into the plot in a way that does not allow him to solve the problem at the expense of the main cast, look at the Supergirl series they pretty much use all of Superman's main villains and write him out of the plot so they can have a show.

The third way I'm going to mention to deal with the script problems Superman brings to the table is to simply kill him off. I suspect there is not enough time in Young Justice season 3 to give us a Darkseid fight but we know it's coming and for this to work as Young Justice it may be easier if superman was killed off.

If you had to bet on Young Justice Season 3 Deaths who would you pick?
