    I'm shocked that I remember Superman fan info from my childhood but a version of your question was answered in a DC supplement "about Superman" back when I was around 9 or 10. I'm pushing 50 now.
    It said that Superman, although, not subject to sickness like humans would ultimately grow old and die.

    No, In the earlier days of superman, white kryptonite used to give him cold like symptoms.

    Yes, but tell me why, if he is so tough, he ducks when someone throws a gun at him?

    No. He suffers adverse effects to close proximity to Kryptonite doesn't he? That's basically poisoning which is a form of disease. The substance causes a pathological change in his body which makes some mechanism in his cells to stop working correctly. Just as e.g. radiation poisoning is a disease, so to is kryptonite poisoning.

    One would assume so. Since he doesn't seem to have wounds for very long, he must have a superior healing process and that involves a superior autoimmune response to deal with invading bacteria. It's interesting to note that he's never had a cold, indicating immunity to viruses, something humans don't have.
