@Jnr6Lil: Superman can be cloned, but not duplicated. It's a question of taking the familiar and twisting it to a different idea.
Bizarro thinks backwards and is in many cases the "opposite Superman", Were Superman a colorless clone, with no emotional baggage, AND EVIL, that becomes a more interesting aspect to itself. The generalization that Superman's EMOTIONS give him both strength and weakness. Superman's invulnerability from outside forces tends to make him an intrigue, but reading Match going up against Superboy when Match was SMART- that is something very dangerous. Superman can defeat Bizarro on the usage of blue kryptonite or Bizarro's stupidity, Bizarro has empathy and attracts the reader on his pitiful deformations, the reader is revolted by Bizzaro as the abberation of Superman, a Superman-Frankenstien monster while sympathizing his problems. Match HAS NO emotional ties, is allegedly a brainwashed puppet to no sense for physical pain, and is very much an emotionless character to me which I find more terrifying than a character with broader emotions. Imagine Bizarro with no weakness to kryptonite, no capacity to feel pleasure or pain, and the cold mindset of the Decepticon Shockwave- that is my depiction of Match. Just a thought.
Yes but an intelligent Bizarro doesn't need to be good to beat Superman.
