Lois dies, Earth has a gillion superheroes by then, so Kal becomes an interstellar wanderer for a time.

Except he gets his powers from yellow stars, I think, which basically confines him to just Earth and the inner rings of our solar system.

Science is fun kids:

Earth's sun is a star, one of a near incalculable number of stars in space. While our sun is really spiffy, it is not unique in the universe. You can find G-type main sequence stars (the type our sun falls into) in more places than simply Sol System.

PS: Our sun isn't actually yellow. It's white.

Yes, but we are still a long ways away from any other stars, and if (such as in Dark Knight Returns) Superman can go all withered and weak from just from taking massive amounts of damage while the sun is blotted out by dust, what would happen if he tried venturing into the depths of space in search of proper stars like the sun? If his immunity to space's extremes falters for even a second while he's zooming through the galaxy, boom, dead.
