News at eleven...
From Superman's Pal, Jimmy Olsen #98, a dream of the apocalypse where Superman thinks of the only three people who matter to him: Lois, Jimmy and Batman (guess which of these he'd like to marry).
And amazingly, whatever causes Earth's destruction, it keeps all the continents intact. I want to come back to this Silver Age reality some day, and find we're all still living there, in spacesuits.
But yeah, "groan" is probably a gross under-reaction. I wonder if Jor-El had the same to say about Krypton blowing up. Probably not.

It was the gradual ramping up of Superman's powers (interstellar flight, invulnerability, etc) that necessitated the "yellow sun" thing, otherwise that panel you just posted ... ? That's what Krypton's explosion would have looked like, except with billions of completely unharmed Kryptonians all saying "All my stuff -- wiped out! GROAN!" and flying off to some other world.
Is that Pete Costanza art?
