Jeffrey Taylor has published an article at Movies.com highlighting all the "Easter Eggs" and references that Superman fans and comic book fans might have missed in "Man of Steel".
Major Carrie Ferris who said "I just think he's kinda hot," is Carol Ferris, the love interest of Hal Jordan as Green Lantern (played by Blake Lively in the recent Green Lantern movie) and she became the villain Star Sapphire in those comics.
Father Leone was the character's name that Clark spoke to in the church while deciding whether to turn himself in to authorities. A character with the same name was used while Superman was having some emotional troubles in the famous "For Tomorrow" story by Brian Azzarello and Jim Lee in Superman (vol. 2) #204-215 around 2003.
Ken Braverman was one of the bullies giving Clark a hard time in a flashback in front of Sullivan's Tractors. Kenny Braverman was from the comics in 1994-1995 who was a childhood friend of Clark, but always came in second in athletic and school events, which angered his abusive father. He became the villain Conduit and had a hard time killing Clark Kent, only to discover his dual identity and attacking his family, friends and fiancée Lois Lane.

The overseas grosses also came in higher than originally reported. New figures from Warner Brothers point to a $73.3 million debut for Man of Steel outside of North America. The Superman reboot grossed $202.1 million worldwide in its opening weekend.
Additionally, Reuters reports that "Man of Steel" has broken the record for the biggest June opening ever.
The studio was also pleased by 56 percent male, 44 percent female audience, which Fellman said bodes well being a higher-female makeup that was usual for superhero-centred pictures.
"The film is playing extremely well for fan boys as well as the family," he said.
