I wonder how many people realize that the word Bizarro as a descriptor of things originated with the Superman villain (much in the same way they coined the word Brainiac, a word that's far escaped DC Comics to become a pretty regular real world word). Any time someone refers to a bizarro-whatever as a way of describing everything being upside down and topsy-turvy vs what it should be, they're calling out the Superman villain who always said the opposite of what he was thinking.
(I remain confused that modern day DC stuff has never used Brainiac for a feature film villain when he's Superman's best and most interesting villain but that's a different conversation)
