Superman takes on the roles of the entire Justice League? Sorta...but not really, it's another case of Silver Age comic madness from DC Comics. Jor El has a message for Kal El and he's going to play it in front of the entire Justice League. Find out just what Clark Kent's life would have been like if he had been sent to other worlds. This concept would end up being revisited years later at the tail end of the 90s. See the original and decide which planet is best for the man of steel here on Casually Comics!

How many thousands of innocents perished while most of the JLA stood around watching Jor-El's home movie, I wonder? If he could afford the time off Astro City's Samaritan would probably do a crossover just to slap them all upside the head for lollygagging. Wow, that word sounds a lot creepier than it used to, doesn't it? Damn you, Japan.

My favorite part of this story is how the writer said Varuun had a "satellite" that left it in permanent shadow, and the artist didn't get that it was supposed to be a moon (a natural satellite) and instead drew this gigantic artificial satellite blocking the sun.

What I think is especially interesting are the wider implications of this story and others like it. In particular - that it appears that Jor-El seems to have been the only person on the planet Krypton to figure out that under a yellow sun a Kryptonian - any Kryptonian - would become one of the most powerful beings in the galaxy. If others knew that - you can bet that someone like General Zod would hop on a rocket ship and head over to the nearest yellow sun to set himself up as an all powerful dictator.

I used to not like recolours often for being flat but after reading many I've gotten used to it and now more so prefer the vibrance in some instances like All-Star Squadron. Idk why but Kal saying the "S" stands for speed slays me. Water world for life though, Kal seemed arguably happier there than on Earth in a lot of ways -plus no land people meant at least he didn't have to deal with a twisted Black Manta equivalent if he ever decided to settle down-.

About the color: when it comes to art there are two types of color: Reflective (print and photos) and transmitted (Video Screens). Reflective color is when the light hits the ink on a page, then the color is reflected and that is what your eyes see. Transmitted is a light that shines the color directly to the eye. The thing is old printed books, the color is faded and the newsprint have yellowed. The recolors are on digital and higher quality paper come across as far more intense. But they are accurate.

The writer/artist credits are a good change, but actual tampering with the content--even just changing the title--is a huge no-no in my eye. (Especially if the title change is rendered completely pointless by mentioning it directly below the new title. Worst example: If one compares scans of the '70s issues of _Detective Comics_ to the modern digital versions, it becomes immediately obvious that the artwork has been completely redone in several panels. Those panels were drawn by Neal Adams and inked by Dick Giordano, and the new artwork has the distinct "fish lipped" look of Adams' later work. I used to love Adams' art (before his _Skate-Man/Batman: Odyssey_ days) but if this was his doing, and if it was an attempt to replace Giordano's work with his own, as far as I'm concerned he might as well have wiped his ass with the physical pages.

I agree that, given the premise "Superman turns into other Justice Leaguers", this was a pretty clever way to do it. It kind of doesn't work, though, because in most versions of the story, Jor-El intended for his whole family to escape Krypton, and it was only the fact that the destruction of the planet came even sooner than he predicted that forced him to just shove the baby into the prototype rocket at the last minute. So shouldn't he be looking for a world where they would all be happy together? (Never mind that he's wasting a lot of time screwing around with this computer instead of, you know, *finishing the damn rocket*!) Oh well, the Silver and Bronze Ages are full of these kinds of little retcons, showing that Jor-El was doing all these side projects in and around sending Kal to Earth. I like the one in World's Finest where Jor-El creates special pills that give you super-powers, just in case they go to Earth, get powers, lose their powers somehow, and then need to get them back. Even Batman would look askance at that level of contingency planning...

Cripes, his wife was right there watching all this. Lois and Jor-El dated for a while thanks to time travel shenanigans, and she pretty much only broke it off when she realized she wouldn't be able to marry her own son if things kept up - even Kryptonians draw the line at that, even if kissing cousins are A-OK. Love to see him try to explain why his creepy ex is there on the planet he's shooting their kid off to. Lara would kill him before Krypton finished exploding. Lara - "Shouldn't we look at his Earth future too, dear? Maybe it'll be even worse." Jor-El - "Uh....no, no, I'm sure it's fine." he says as he covertly spins the POV selector off of the "Lois' shower" preset he had it on.

Some cool ideas here, but not really shocked that Kal becoming a floppy-eared "Diro-Man" on Saruun never stuck. "Updating" the colors of classic books so that they're ruined in reprints is a tragedy. I've heard that part of the problem comes from the same color of ink transferring/appearing different when applied to newsprint as opposed to glossy paper. Thankfully the _Supergirl: The Silver Age_ collections do a really good job with coloring.

The only one who doesn't try it is Wonder Woman, after she puts on the outfit but checks herself in a mirror and realizes she can't hide her figure. It's one of my favorite panels! Plus, it has appearances from Luthor, the Penguin, Dr. Light, I.Q., Captain Boomerang, Jason Woodrue and Tattooed Man as Dr. Destiny's gang. Also, "Cutlass Charlie" for Aquaman's counterpart, because nobody knew any of Aquaman's villains at that time. Poor Arthur :/

On the giant world birds are called "birds"; on the water world whales are "whales", but on the darkness world bats are called "diros"? On most worlds, Kal-El ended up dressing like one of his friends... except the one where he's dressed in a ugly mixture of his regular suit and Barry's suit. And, damn, if this story didn't throw shade on Oliver's schtick as being medieval. Also, they should have used Kathoon (Lydda Jath's homeworld) for the Diro, just as a bit of continuity.

Not gonna lie, as strange as this was, I think the basic concept of this could make a pretty interesting animated film. Perhaps The AI from Superman‘s baby shuttle plays out simulations of what will most likely happen if Superman goes to a specific world? Then we as the audience would get to see it played out, maybe even each different simulation could have a different art style and direction to help differentiate them. You could call the film “The Superman of Many Worlds.” Now they wouldn’t all have to play out the same, may be in some of his lives superman is a hero one another’s maybe he becomes a villain because of the circumstances? Maybe in some worlds he becomes Superman, while another’s he becomes reminiscent of another member of the Justice League? Maybe the story could even have an element of nature versus nurture, where all of these alternate versions of superman‘s life are different but there are some constant similarities. Edit: One alternate home I think would be cool would be showing what would happen if superman ended up on Mars. Maybe he would be adopted by J’Jon (Martian Manhunter)? I see I feel like there’s just so many ways you could take this story despite how simple it is.

I was so taken with the combination of colors that this cover was my phone lock screen image for a couple of years. I didn't know of the revisit in the 90's as I'd had to drop buying comics because of economic factors, but I'm looking them up as soon as I finish this and will see if they're affordable for me now, along with the original Action Comics 314.

Intresting, yet werid and I remember the ads for the 90’s versions of this idea originally.

Jor-El was like "I'll would rather throw myself into the Phantom Zone with my robes full of scorpions than to let my son turn into a lame super hero without powers or who can't get a date!", parenting at its best, Haha!

If Jor-El had so much time to burn looking at perspective planets to send Kal-El to and sending various animals into space before Krypton exploded, he should have had time to build an entire fleet to save the entire Kryptonian race!

The whole Justice League (Except what?! No alternate Wonder Woman?!) just waiting around together makes me think that not only did Aquaman watch the tape, they *all* did. Oh yeah and: *WATER WORLD FOR LIFE*

I don't see Jor-El being fickle. The predictive powers of his super-computer is most likely better than anything found on earth.

Green Arrow's...arrow...its literally a call to Adventure. Yeah, I borrowed that from Rick and Morty. ...Yeah...with that title...I feel like they lied to me. Still entertaining and all...but...Its almost like thinking you are marrying one sister, say The Blonde and find out its really her sister, the...brunette...kinky, but not THAT desirable...unless...Nah! Other than the title and cover picture...it was fine. ...Sasha..you look good in that hair..you should keep it. Thank you for the insightful video.
