Earth One Vol 1 of Superman should have been fully adapted into Man of Steel. While a bit melodramatic, to me it perfectly establishes Clark Kent in a world very similar to ours. Because WB/DC wanted to create a more realistic DC universe. Why not use the Earth One world as a template and as you stated, Sal, draw on the rich tapestry of the all the other aspects contained within the DC main universe. This literally could have brought Superman back to the mainstream public and have something other than the Christopher Reeve Superman. And that's not a slight on the Donner films. They are great. But much like the Adam West Batman, it would be nice to see another take on the character, like the Burton films and Nolan films. But Nope. Synder and Goyer didn't get this character. I love Synder as a director, but he's explicitly stated he DOES NOT like Superman. So that begs the question: Why give MOS to him?! Seriously, I don't get Hollywood. If you know someone who doesn't get/ isn't interested in a character why give it to him? And more so on Synder, why would he accept? He thinks Superman is boring. Why bother? Give it to someone who cares about the character. I'm sorry if I'm coming off as whiny, but it is so frustrating when Synder messes up TWICE. While not my favorite superhero(Dr. Strange for anyone who is curious), he's on my top five. Superman is a character who in the right hands can be a compelling character. JMS gets Superman. Synder and Goyer Do NOT. Rather, they make him into a Batman wannable who is so wooden and flat it's revolting. Overall, great back issue.

I feel like Superman's mind is similar to the Flash's in that since they both move at superspeed, their mind's need to process at the same speed as to not hurt themselves. So he has amazing processing power and can think and absorb information faster than any normal person but he hasn't read or studied the same material as Batman, making Batman smarter while still giving Superman that "everyman" quality.

I love Superman Earth One so much! It and the subsequent volumes are some of my favorite comics I've ever read. I do agree VERY much that Batman Earth One was lackluster. Batman is my favorite hero so it pains to have to tell me friends "read Superman Earth One, because Batman kinda sucks..." Batman "defeats" the Dollmaker, then gets his ass handed to him by THE PENGUIN?!? Also Batman is way too emo in Earth One until the end. I'm looking forward to Volume 2 because I'm hoping he keeps moving forward and doesn't go back to being emo the whole book. Also just because it was really bugging me, Sal Superman Volume 2 was about the Parasite, Volume 3 was Zod. Anyways, Earth One has some of my favorite comics (I don't like Earth One Batman, but I'll still read it because it has cool moments.) I do agree they need to come out faster, I want my Earth One Trinity book!! Wow that was a lot more than I intended to write, loved the Back Issues guys! Thanks for another quality video!

Superman should be intelligent, not Batman/Luthor level but, A) His father was a genius (of a highly advanced society that Superman must have literature on) B) Maybe he is above average in terms of iq (not necessarily genius level) but he can think fast and read a bachelor's degree worth of information in the time it takes somebody to eat breakfast. (as an extension of running/reacting quickly, as well as canon depictions of flash and superman talking/thinking on par with their speed) C) He has always been a writer, a competent one at that, and while that need not correlate to genius IQ it certainly indicates some intelligence. I would even argue that him being a writer could perhaps be more original to the character than the "Batman outsmarts everybody" trope.

Superman is extremely intelligent. He can recall anything he has experienced or read perfectly, a college graduate with ease and honors if I remember correctly there, and he can analyze information as fast as he moves. Although it brings up an interesting concept of intelligence in comics as people would say that one person is more intelligent than the other... which is hardly ever the case as people tend to be more well versed in one subject while someone else is well versed in another. For example: I'm sure that Batman is possibly a better Chemist than the Flash as Batman spends the majority of his time seemingly creating his hundreds of antidotes to Joker toxins. However the Flash is a better Physicist as he applies his knowledge to his powers regularly and uses physics (and his imagination) to perform the feats that he does.

Hundreds of thousands of people didnt die and the whole city wasnt destroyed it was like a quarter of the city but theyre not gonna pan out and show the entire city. And in the context of the movie Clark was a rookie on his first day. He tried to get Zod into space and Zod knocked him back into the city. And again in the context of how Kryptonians were made, Zod was created to be a soldier, actually knrw how to fight and he was only getting stronger as the fight went on. Meaning Zod would sooner than later be able to kill Superman and destroy the planet. And him killing Zod gives Superman a basis of his no killing rule because he did it once and it truly ended his race and doesnt want to kill again. Only problem I had with MOS was the Pa Kent thing. Highlights being Cavills portayel of Superman when hes questioned by the gov., Zod, the action, and way Cavill with little Clark time he had in the film actually showed the side of Clark that is rarely seen and part most people should be able to relate to, being his feeling of being an outsider like the black sheep even though he was raised here.

14:54 For birth certificate, they just go to the nearest authority and they tell them they found a baby. There's not inherently supernatural about that- kid could have just been abandoned, had his parents die, etc etc. The idea of someone stumbling onto a lost baby in the Kansas wilderness might make the news, but it's not something that would make most people assume anything alien is going on. After a search for his parents (which would, naturally, come up with nobody), an investigation to make sure the kents didn't just kidnap him (which they didn't) and a check to see if the kents were suitable as parents (they are)? They simply adopt the baby.* Legally, this is fine. As far as the government is explained, problem solved. There's really nothing about the adoption part of story even in the modern day that is unbelievable. *If you find a baby and report it to authorities, the baby will be taken in by the state and placed in an orphanage or foster care. You could offer yourself as a foster placement if you wanted. Whether the baby would be placed with you is highly dependent on a lot of little details; how overcrowded is the foster and orphanage system, do you have previous interaction with the caseworkers, etc. Healthy infants are easy foster/adoption placements, so there could be a long list of other possible placements. But in a small town, if you are a known community member, and in a world of yesteryear when not every system was so interconnected, it could happen.

Maybe like how a baby can't control it's movements, making them jerky compared to an adult's. His body's structure might have a predisposition to a certain density, but it wasn't fully developed yet, making him malleable.

Allen Babylon If "The Physics of Superheroes" by James Kakalios is to be believed (great book, by the way), that WAS the original source of Superman's powers, at least in the Golden Age (I haven't actually read many Golden Age comics, but I don't think the sunlight stuff was introduced until at least the Silver Age, if not Post-Crisis). Krypton had a gravitational pull around 15 times that of the Earth, which allowed Superman to easily move faster, jump higher, and lift heavier objects. Kakalios even determined that for Krypton to have that kind of gravity without being so massive as to become a gas giant, it would've need to be far more dense, leading to the conclusion that Krypton's core was actually a neutron star (second in density only to a black hole). And something that unstable forming your planet would explain how Krypton exploded.

It's funny how you guys talked about how done to death Superman's origin is and how by this point everyone should know it and yet the guys at WB didn't know Krypton blew up during production of Man of Steel

Well, now I wanna see you guys play out a mock trial against Batman. I would love to write a legal opinion but I don't know enough about American criminal law to argue a case for or against Batman. So I guess I'll have to wait for Batman to "let somebody die" in a jurisdiction I'm familiar with. Alternatively, you could form an acapella group and sing Christmas songs (from "The Silent Night of the Batman") with Batman voices.
