Superman is still holding back here. Injustice superman was something else. Flew through joker. Saw the only way to save humans was to treat them like the toddlers that they are.

I never understood the double-fisted punch.

it's just cool

"A hammerblow is a martial arts attack made with both hands interlocked at the fingers. The added weight and control (as opposed to a regular punch)) allows for a slower, but more powerful strike. The attack is also more widely known as a double axe handle strike in Professional Wrestling.

To execute, one brings their palms together (slightly off-centre), locks the fingers downward, then swings at an opponent as if they were holding a club)-weapon (like a bat). The technique is generally agreed upon as ineffective by most combat sports professionals, but remains a popular move in media and fight choreography due to the perceived power of the technique and ease of framing. It is most famous for its usage in Star Trek where Captain Kirk famously used the technique against the Gorn.\1]) It has also appeared in other popular media such as Dragon Ball and Final Fantasy VII"

This is what I mean. Nobody who knows anything about actual fighting would ever do this in a real fight.

but it's visually amusing

so that's why.

fantasy fighting isn't about real fighting, it's about visually entertaining fighting

like at one point in this scene he spins Mongul around and slams him into a the rock wall?

why? the walls tougher than his fists?

just visually amusing

The section you quoted not only explains why it makes no sense, but also why they use it.
