Love your videos, I gave this one a like as I do with all of them, I'm subscribed to your channel... I still want the characters to have their classic designs (Think Joe Shuster, Curt Swan, John Byrne, Alex Ross and Gary Frank kind of designs for the Superman Cast...), is that wrong?!. I am a gay, brown, Mexican leftist, about as woke as it gets, BUT I WANT THE DESIGNS I FELL IN LOVE WITH (Though Superman's face looks kinda like Christopher Reeve's, but less angular and more oval, which is wrong, like it should be more squared or rectangular, and WHERE IS THE CLASSIC HAIRSTYLE???), I know I have a para-social relationship with them , but that's the way it is, my favorite characters are like my loved ones, and they have a specific physical appearance. Also I hate what they did to the "S" /House of El shield on Superman's chest, WHY CAN'T THEY DO THE CLASSIC LOGO?!. English ain't my first language, so sorry about my grammar.

Ironically the "glasses disguise" is probably one of the most realistic aspects of the superman mythos but people think it is the least realistic. There have been articles written about how it's actually surprisingly realistic. Heck I knew someone in college who wore glasses all the time and whenever I saw them with their glasses off I was kind of thrown by how different they looked. Additionally it's not JUST glasses. It's the changes in voice and body language that occur. I always view the glasses disguise as a magic trick. Once you know the answer its obvious and you kick yourself for being so stupid but when you don't know the truth then you can't comprehend how a trick is done and question your perceptions of reality.

There's the scene from one of the Christopher Reeves movies that demonstrates this to an uncanny degree. And honestly, he doesn't even need the glasses.

Most of the threats being mad science and pots and pans robots is also peak Golden Age comics and Max Fleicher animation too; what people are complaining about the most in this show are influences and references to materials that are flying over their heads. Turns out they don't know their dank DC fluff as well as they think they do, like all the people who clearly only know of The Brain and Monsieur Mallah from one arc in Teen Titans Animated and don't know they've been a bizarre gay romance between a brain-in-a-jar and his hyper intelligent gorilla assistant since their debut roles in the original 1960's Doom Patrol

Something I really loved about Andrew Garfield’s Peter Parker is that they put a lot of focus on him not just saving people but really trying to take care of them. ASM2, flawed as it is, really did a good job of making him out to be this fundamentally compassionate guy who would check on people to make sure they were okay after saving them or trying to talk a villain down rather than just attacking them outright. It’s sad to me we lost that version of him to executive indecision.

​@powerbadpowerbad Supes isn't supposed to appeal to people in a relatable way. His appeal is in his kindness and pure of heart combined with his physical strength. His films, even though he's only had three in the past 20 years, fail at the box office because the movies he's been a part of are uninspired. Brandon's Superman was great but they didn't give him enough to do. Cavill could've been great but Snyder didn't let him feel like Superman until his Justice League movie, and even then, he paled in comparison to his comic counterpart. The issues you have with Supes are completely valid because they are just your opinions, but most like Supes because he is the embodiment of kindness and hope. I hope this reply cleared that up with you.

​@@powerbadpowerbadthe point of Superman is to be a positive foil to Humanity. If an ALIEN is more humane to humans than other humans are, despite experiencing all of our imperfections, we should be inspired to be kinder to each other as well. There's other layers too; he does suffer some interpersonal things that we do in every day life. Him being powerful really only extends to his kryptonian abilities. He clearly still go through the same things we do. You can't strong arm your way through people's emotions. He still has to deal with intangibles, and things he can't control.

Thank you for continuing to stand up for the concept of superheroes who are actually good people. It's always weirded me out a bit when people assume that "real" heroes would be selfish and cruel. One of my strongest childhood memories is the 1994 Northridge earthquake in California, which was centered near the home of my rather fragile grandparents. It took my family a couple of days to make it to that house because the roads were in such a state, but when we arrived, we discovered that everyone in their neighborhood had banded together to help one another out however they could, and they'd made sure that the old folks got help from whoever was able-bodied and uninjured. Half of those people didn't even have a common language with the other half (lots of monolingual English and Spanish speakers), but they basically played neighborhood-wide charades because they saw other humans in trouble. Obviously my parents and siblings and I pitched in when we arrived, but it made a profound impact on me to see what had already been done. And it turns out this happens a LOT in disasters! Fires, floods, blackouts, earthquakes, all of it. Even when covid hit, while there were lots of people who turned into jerks as time went on, there were still people who kept on sharing food and checking on their neighbors and distributing masks. Why WOULDN’T the people who choose to be superheroes include the kind of people who'd get a cat out of a tree? Or help an old lady after an earthquake? Or drop off groceries for a neighbor who lost their job? Sure, some people would put on the tights for fame or attention or money or power, but some of them would just want to help. I think it's disingenuous to assume otherwise. So yeah, color me Team Superman Is Nice, Actually. And I'm glad to have someone as nice as you, Scott, for a teammate. :)

The only thing I’m not sure about yet is this iteration of Deathstroke. As a kid who grew up with the Teen Titans cartoon, I have yet to find an animated adaptation of Slade Wilson I like more. I do hope this impresses me. Otherwise, I adore this more youthful take on Clark, Lois, and Jimmy. More than that, SOMETHING THAT SPOTLIGHTS JIMMY AT ALL. The fact that he’s more than just a third wheel, and the fact that he has as much chemistry with Lois as Clark does shows how much care they put into him. And of course, I’d be remised to not harp on how much I love this iteration of Lois and Clark. The fact they’re immediately smitten with each other and that’s all without any fronts, any walls, any deception. Clark’s just a dork who thinks she’s cute and she’s an ambitious go getter who thinks he’s adorable. One episode was all it took to sell me, two was all it took for me to LOVE them.

I used to not buy the eyeglasses disguise but then I was in a community choir with identical twins and I did not realize they were identical until I had known them for over a year because one of them preferred glasses and one preferred to wear contacts. As soon as the girl who normally wore contacts had to wear glasses one day I was like "Oh the twins are identical, not fraternal!" And my next thought was "I now buy that no one would recognize Clark Kent." 😅

@@marcusclark1339 I have my concerns about the show as well -Lois is more childish then usual and hangs out with kids -It won't let red heads be red heads so they're turning Jimmy black for the 3rd or 4th time -Its designs are near identical to that She-ra reboot with some owl house references. Like you said, very soft designs. -They seem to be trying to make Clark Kent more like aged-up Jon Kent (thankfully still straight), both too much of klutz this old and even has that blue lightning energy HOWEVER, while these are all red flags, nothing has pushed it over the edge into truly bad yet. Its no DCAU, we won't see writing that good for a very long time, but it could still be a passable version. The Zack Snyder-verse was always too gritty, and the New 52 animated movies were hit and miss. Jason O'Mara as Batman was given a horrible script, them asking him to do emotionless responses and grunting in annoyance, and New 52 Superman is pretty boring until his death scene or his scene saving Raven. If they are able to control themselves to not make things too floofy, I can understand wanting to make Clark feel like a light hearted farmboy who wants to do good again. I'm reserving my judgement until more episodes come out.

That part about the shift from heroes helping to just heroes fighting villains is exactly why I love Mumen Rider from One Punch Man. He’s literally just a normal guy in a series where literal aliens and humans with insane powers exist, all he has to stand out is the fact he’s a pretty good bike rider, but he’s the one character I would truly consider an actual hero. Even Saitama, as hilarious and engaging as he is to watch, is mostly just trying to go about his day to day life alongside his quest to find a foe who can withstand more than one punch. He does save people yes, but it’s mostly just if they’re in his immediate range of attention. Mumen Rider consistently goes out of his way to check in on people, no matter how menial their woes, and always does his best to make sure they’re safe and happy. Even if he’s beaten down, or at risk of death from some villains, he keeps getting back up and prioritises the safety of those around him first and foremost, not the actual fighting. He’s just this unabashedly kind person doing his best in a world that normally forces one into a state of apathy, and I strive to be more like him irl (not so much pretending to be a hero, rather being kind and uplifting to those around me)

That's the Superman I grew up with and what I want to see and no one has seemed to understand that for years.

This harkens back to the first Christopher Reeves Superman movie. It is bright, flashy, sometimes just a touch silly. But it was sincere and that deepens all the rest. This animation is doing that. The artwork and characters are bright, clean, fun. In fact, it’s light enough that it puts the audience off balance and shales up what we “know” about Superman, Lois and all the rest. There is depth hidden in that simplicity. Also, it’s refreshing to have a Superman who is still figuring things out; he doesn’t know much more than Lois, Jimmy or everyone else. The adventures are fun, chemistry between the main characters is superb. And there’s something sinister brewing just beneath the surface we’ve only gotten hints about.

Contrivances would annoy anyone who dislikes romance combined with childish behavior. This series takes the Man out of of Superman the same way 1998 Godzilla took out God (sic Ryuhei Kitamura). And for the same, awful reasons, only even more awful this audience actually WANTS it. For comparison, Invincble crashes head first into the impossibility its premise to create a pretty compelling narative, dare I say deconstruction in year of our lord 2023. This show exists ENTIRELY in a weird, naivistic power fantasy, that you will NEVER tackle the idea of adulthood, being the HERO who takes on a loss of innocence so CHILDREN wouldn't have to. This Superman is all about GETTING to not do that. I'm surprised to find out they invetned a more perfect defintion of "Anti-Hero", than the PREVIOUS one. And this Superman is that. Every animated version if He-Man, is a better "Superman" than what we see here. EVERY version. That universe doesn't dodge out of the way when any level of basic introspection on what heroism NEEDS, is put on the table. Not like Nietzschean overman, not even like Christ, but like innocent baby Chairman Mao, delivered without a shred of irony.

I think it’s mainly that they like each other, but Lois is obsessed with finding out who or what superman is. Which is also true for Clark it’s the theme of the show which is self discovery. Now if your a longtime comic fan you already know superman’s backstory. Born on the dying planet krypton after Zod waged a war and lost. Superman’s parents knew the planet was about to be destroyed so sent him to earth. Superman gets his powers from the sun, and his only weakness is kryptonite. Most likely theirs going to be a twist which have a major impact on Clark/superman.

I came into this video expecting spoilers, as my last comment said I have only seen the first episode. I think the fact that Superman cleans up the collateral damage caused by the villain is amazing. While I have other problems with the movie...a lot of them in fact, I would have probably forgiven basically all of them in MoS if after Clark kills Zod (Not that I want THAT to happen) if he had just helped clean up the rubble in the city. Like maybe him rebuilding would have been too cartoony and campy for Snyder, but just clean up. Just taking the time to clean up what was essentially his own mess. Instead it just felt like metropolis, Supermans city for nearly a century, had been destroyed the first time he goes there. So seeing MAwS Clark cleaning up after the fight just makes me happy.

It also has one of my favourite moments in any Superman comic, and what hooked me on this series, where you see a disheveled Clark slumped in his seat holding a bottle, and Lois comes in and goes 'Uh-oh, youre hitting the pop. What happened?' (Oh, I should add, this isnt just funny. They talk, genuinely support each other, and she gets a smile out of him before he shoots back in to action.)

Superman shows up and I just felt at that moment "everything's going to be alright now" and it hit me, that's what Superman should be, the hero that makes you feel "everything's going to be alright now" because not only you know that he's powerful enough to finish the fight, but also, you know that he's the one that's going to do the right thing, he's the one that's not going to let his anger win or let his ego drive him to make the wrong choice.

Other than those small things, which could be fixed in coming episodes and seasons, its a wonderful show that I'm happy exists and so happy I found it.

One of my favorite comics is still a Spider-man story from about a decade ago. A minor villain gets out of prison and he's just walking down an alley contemplating doing crime again because cons don't get shit once they get out. And there's a brief shadow cast that looks like Spidey, but when the villain turns it's just Pete. Pete talks to the guy. Listens to his problems. Pete says he knows this guy! He did some crazy good tech. Why don't you come for me, Peter Parker at my giant fancy well paying science lab?? Because punching bad guys doesn't mean much if there isn't amnesty and respect for those who want to leave it behind.

A part of me really wishes that this took place in the same universe as the Harley Quinn cartoon, i just really like the idea of having two cartoons take place in the same universe but developed for completely different audiences with completely different tones and styles

Great quote from one of the Captain America movies that applies to Superman (atleast modern Superman) "Even if the whole world is telling you to move, it is your duty to plant yourself like a tree, look them in the eye, and say, 'No, you move.'"

Honestly, My Adventures With Superman is the first Superman anything I really got into. Picked up stuff about the guy here and there over some other media I watched, but this one is the first that really hooked me on its own, because I really like wholesome lil' dork Superman. He cute and I really vibe with it.

I find it weird that Batman has more animated TV shows than Superman and Superman has more live action TV shows than Batman, but Superman's powers are easier done in animated form, the flying, heat vision, superspeed, etc. and Batman's powers (or gadgets) are easier done in live action.
