In the 80 plus years Superman has been around there's obviously going to be bad writing, cringy and down right horrible stories. So, it's not that Superman or Wonder Woman or Batman haven't done terrible things in the comics over the years, they have. The thing is, they shouldn't have. Also, Superman doing something terrible years or decades ago isn't an excuse or justification for him to do it now.
The only reason Superman kills is because a writer wanted him too. There's always a way out. Like in Superman 2 when Superman led Zod and his minions away from the city to stop all the destruction. They could have done modern style destruction porn and fought to the death there and leveled the city. But they didn't. Superheroes are a fantasy limited only by a writer's imagination and thirst for violence.
