Appearances in Story
LEGO Batman 2: DC Superheroes
Superman is first seen at the Ace Chemicals Plant where the Dynamic Duo are threatened by a large fire. The heroes are aided by Superman who rescues them but leaves once Batman and Robin chase Lex Luthor and Joker through Gotham City. Luthor's LexBots fight the duo, who no longer were aided by Superman, delaying them and giving room for the villains to escape and for the Joker to make fake kryptonite.
Soon after, Luthor and Joker continue to Metropolis, but are followed by Superman and Batman. However the villains outrun them reaching Metropolis, where Luthor quickly constructs a giant robot that resembles Joker. When Superman and Batman find him building a large robot, Luthor reveals that he plans to use all of Joker's gas to control the citizens to follow his command. After finding out that the heroes are alive, Luthor weakens Superman with kryptonite instantly knocking him out. The villain then attempts to shoot Batman but misses and he jumps off the robot and saves Superman. Luthor and Joker are then defeated by the heroes.
Superman, who was still weakened by the kryptonite, was unable to fly and the robot attacks them. The robot nearly defeats the heroes but they are luckily aided by the Justice League and Lex Luthor and Joker are defeated and returned to jail.
