10 Unresolved Plot Points From The First Era Of DCEU Movies

10. How Did Clark Kent Return From The Dead?

We all know how Superman returned from the dead; the Justice League managed to resurrect him with the use of one of Darkseid's Mother Boxes. While the world was undoubtedly shocked to see the Man of Steel back, it probably wouldn't have been that hard to accept an alien superhero being among the living again after his apparent demise.

However, what we don't understand is how Clark Kent was back in Metropolis at the end of Justice League. The Daily Planet reported his death to the world, but he was clearly back in his journalist persona. Hell, he even has his farm back thanks to intervention of Bruce Wayne, so it's not exactly like he's hiding out in Smallville, keeping himself to himself.

The only real explanation is that Joss Whedon wanted a cool, final shot for his version of this movie, and Superman's hopeful message really was quite inspiring. However, with no explanation about how Clark Kent is back in Metropolis, it's hard not to feel at least a little frustrated that we may never know how he explained his ressurection.
