That's exactly the point, because they realize what a mess the world around him became. His relationships with his supporting cast was pretty poor.
It didn't work out well because Marvel didn't follow through. They caved to demand and that resulted in an even worse batch of stories than they were putting out in the first place.
DC is doing New 52 Superman quick and dirty. I don't think that's fair to his fans, but I don't think it's fair to anyone to drag things out.
