My Adventures With Superman Just Got Even Better

After last week’s two parter became the first time in 23 years we’ve had an animated Superman tv show and made it work really well, this week’s episode is even better. This video will be my review of My Adventures With Superman Season 1 Episode 3 titled “My Interview With Superman”.

[@HaydrogenBomb]

I love how they made Clark's heat vision look.

[@plasticmans3036]

It's really anime-like power-up

[@costelinha1867]

Superman: IMMA FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIRING MY LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASER!

[@BaithNa]

The cuteness levels are off the charts

[@Falcun21]

Clark discovering his powers as he ages is right in line with Golden Age Superman whose X-Ray vision developed into Heat Vision and his leaping, which even though it was leaping, was always a slower, softer descent which hinted at something more and Siegel turned into flying at the behest of Fleischer Studios and he finally admitted that it was a natural progression of the leaping ability.

[@knuxuki1013]

Interesting, if true

[@Alexander_Kale]

If you really wanna go by Golden Age Superman rules, don't forget how THAT character developed a new random superpower every other week, most of which were never used again. Meanwhile, Clark discovering his powers is what every superboy show did since the 80s. Superboy did it. Smallville did it. TAS/JLU did it with Supergirl. Also meanwhile, giving Superman Midoria's Quirk from my HeroAca sounds hella dumb...

[@kateorgera5907]

To be fair, Clark *wasn't* fully honest in that interview. While he doesn't know where he's from, he does know he's an alien and doesn't say so. We know he's probably still not ready to admit this, he's not exactly hiding it, but a lie of omission is still a lie. But yeah, of course Lois doesn't believe Superman is genuine - she wants a better story than that.

[@scorpioneldar]

There's a big difference between not volunteering info and lying even by omission. A lie of omission is where you tell someone something while leaving out crucial info to make them draw a false conclusion. Not simply keeping a secret or not giving information you have

[@thefanboy2008]

Man we Superman fans are eating good!😊

[@neofrxst]

heck, I wasn't even a superman fan before this, but now i'm INVESTED!

[@logan2b]

Really liked the show don’t tell element of it being the first time clark uses heat vision, was perfectly set up visually with Clark having strange bouts of red vision

[@darthpelvis]

I thought he was glitching, seeing a vision cos the weapons were from krypton. I assumed he had heat vision already. Fun show

[@charliebaker1427]

reminds me of smallville

[@Animeaddiction]

Funny thing. Way back in the original Man of Steel comic miniseries, when they rebooted Superman in 1986, Lois purposely drove her car off the pier in order to lure in Superman so she could get an interview.

[@darthpelvis]

she kept a tank of air in case she went into the river, I think in the animated series but could have been in a comic also

[@deathcon6261]

Fun Fact Lois jumping off heights so Superman could save her for some other thing is a fairly common trope and even a bit of running joke in the comics.

[@Animeaddiction]

@@deathcon6261 Lois Lane putting herself in danger to prove Clark is Superman is a pretty common theme. My Adventures with Superman, jumping off the Daily Planet roof. Justice League Action, jumping off the Daily Planet Roof. Superman the Movie II, jumping off a cliff at Niagra Falls. Man of Steel miniseries, driving her car off a pier.

[@roderick8167]

I love how Clark is discovering his powers as he goes along, it gives me Smallville vibes like how Clark discovered his powers in a season like when Clark discovered his heat vision in Smallville Season 2 so i wonder if Clark is gonna discover a new power in each new episode like next week he gets super hearing or ice breath or x-ray vision but i cant wait to find out 🤘🔥

[@TheCow-j1l]

In the original comic The Mist actually had a paint that turned stuff invisible on top of being mist, so the invisibility thing is accurate actually, lol still a weird obscure reference

[@drewwilliams7794]

Love the subtle detail of Lois gently grabbing Clark's hand in the intro at 2:06. Just noticed it watching the review XD EDIT: Also, the way the red light of the heat vision reflects off of his entire chest and upper body looks incredible

[@darthpelvis]

Lex tells Clark in "All-star Superman" that Lois could definitely fall for Clark because of his farm-boy persona. Can't remember the exact quote but that scene in the intro reminded me of that

[@joshjones9749]

After thinking about it...Clark still discovering his powers as Superman is exactly how it went in the original comics. He used to jump to get from place to place lol

[@stopstaringatmewtf7651]

As a massive Silver Banshee stan, I thought that this take on her was a pretty good adaptation. Following the show's theme of 'different but distinct', she definitely shares the same ideals as her main counterpart about achieving success and proving herself as worthy or capable. Even though it's not supernatural, book hunter Banshee, I still enjoy the new design and am satisfied with her having a fun fight scene. I'm just hoping that she becomes a reoccurring foe, because her helmet being smashed had me worried.

[@Youngerick1990]

The guy that gave them the tech was at the end looking at them on the ground! Slade aka Deathstroke I’m sure they will be back and stronger.

[@stopstaringatmewtf7651]

@@Youngerick1990 It wasn't Slade who'd given them the tech, that was Livewire. Although I do agree that he'll be repairing it for them.

[@joshjones9749]

They really passed the test of making a likable and down to earth Superman. That's half the battle.

[@charliebaker1427]

yeah their first impression left was favorable, which is half the battle on a new take on an established character

[@Coburnify]

A huge part of the battle. Making a God feel human is the test of a good superman writer. Along with making him inspire hope and his bit of cheeky optimism. Synder missed these entirely

[@aetriandimitri190]

Really liked this episode, and have to say, Banshee is just adorable, her dorky behavior and her little "wait, is that a camera" was just cute. I hope we get more of her and the others, with their weapons destroyed, I see Banshee and Mist getting their probably powers later

[@Soundwave3591]

I'm pondering if the twist in this series is gonna break with the usual mold of "Superman shows up first, THEN the Kryptonian tech" and have Lex's weapons designs all be based on Kryptonian technology that was either part of an expansion fleet or arrived on earth with Clark

[@jhammond1978]

3:41 - 4:01 kinda have Richard Donner written all over it with made me totally enjoy this episode as he said

[@diegomesadiez]

His Fortress of Solitude will surely be his rocket which grew!

[@marcosdheleno]

yep i think someone will find hints of that, and he will be forced to move it somewhere else,

[@jamesharding322]

I still wish they'd give Silver Banshee more "A-list" material that's faithful to the comics. They just keep portraying her as a Black Canary knockoff who only serves as a cameo character or some goon working for another villain

[@marcusyates3044]

When ift start Intergang was in it, I thought they were like in Superman vs the Elite, but I like their Silver Banshee!

[@TheLegendaryMovieCritic]

The Heat Vision & Superman & Lois Lane flying through Metropolis are my favorite My Adventures With Superman scene as the animation is phenomenal & so beautiful & gorgeous!

[@aarontopa9458]

We've been needing a new animated Superman show, and it's finally here and pretty much everyone loves it. I hope we get more then just two seasons.

[@reynaldogaitan4561]

Question, I may be miss-interpreting something here and correct me if I'm wrong but when they helped Banshee escape and gave her the helment, didn't they mention something along the lines of "it amplifies sounds" and then she smiles? To me that means one of two things, either it's the helment that has the sonic attack or, she has a small degree of meta abilities and the helmet amplifies them... I'll like to believe the second one as it'll make things more interesting and would create a small mistery arc to discover who is making this specific equipment for meta humans...

[@EmeraldEmsiron]

​@bananarama1425 im a bit late, but this world seems to be new to metahumans and superpowers in general, which makes some things work a lot better. a dude who has superpowers being front page news makes sense when superpowers arent commonplace, and what we see later seems to support that

[@adamfreddo5703]

I think it would be interesting by contrast when they do introduce Lex Luthor is when the show has scenes which "get real" and have genuine sense menace and foreboding.

[@costelinha1867]

Lex would be such a massive contrast to this show's Clark it would be great.

[@thebrawler4486]

I didn’t even realize how good the animation was, but I noticed it unconsciously. Now that you pointed it out, my mind it blown all over again! It was beautiful, wasn’t it!

[@ellieporter3270]

Loved this episode, was even better than last week’s. Excited for next Thursday and to see where the show goes from here

[@sethhammons4665]

I knew of course that the love interest of the show would be a main focus. What I would like to see, however, is a few episodes that focus more on the relationship between Clark and Jimmy. They’re best friends out the gate, but it’s clear to me at least that Jimmy doesn’t fully understand and appreciate Clark for his values and upbringing. This should be explored. Lois is behaving in a similar fashion and in a more prominent way. This could easily become a show that reminds us of the importance of standing for what we believe in, even if we’re standing alone. I hope it goes in that direction.

[@dynaguy3]

My favorite episode so far too

[@KingKhupacabra]

This show is soo good. I love it. Superman showed me that even small confidence can make a difference in yourself or in other people. Hyped to see more and to see how Superman legacy carries this inspiration

[@ThePsychoguy]

This Lois is by far my favorite. She’s such a lovable dork but still cute as hell.

[@cassiedevereaux-smith3890]

"Superman and Lois are just more interesting characters than Jimmy." *raises eyebrow in Silver Age*

[@kadewade8726]

I cant believe that every video ive seen being negative about this show is that "its just not my superman" frankly so far it's just a different take on the hero gotta give the team props for not making velma 2.0

[@costelinha1867]

This show is more accurate to what Superman is in the comics than many other materials I saw out there.

[@salromero5300]

I love this show.

[@bujoodoo1]

Bro I reeeeaaallly love this damn show

[@Avalos-Entertainment]

It’s a gundum took the L when saying this show is woke bruh Lois is a tomboy Latina with a tight waist and she’s literally awoken something within me alright

[@costelinha1867]

Everyone knows that woke has no real meaning anymore. Like really, all it takes is the presence of a black Jimmy or a short-haired Lois for people to call it woke propaganda, when there's no real propaganda in the show. I mean THE SHOW NEVER BRINGS JIMMY OR PERRY'S SKIN COLOR TO ATTENTION TO THE PLOT! He just happens to be black in this show and we already have a dozen of Supermen material with a white Jimmy or Perry and a long-haired Lois. One cartoon chosing to mix it up a bit doesn't make it a piece of propaganda.

[@pinoyjona]

I’m a bit surprised to see people hating on the show the first week, even getting recommendations with thumbnail calling it trash. Even seeing a post from a online friend of mine not liking the art style (though then again, he’s more a anime guy, so he sees other American shows like this a knock-offs).A week later, I’m getting uploads being more positive and I hope it gets more and more positive throughout the season and changing people’s opinions or at least give it a chance. With some recent 2023 animated series, looking at you Velma, My Adventures with Superman is a refresher.

[@ster9k]

In the 90s, Ron Troupe was added to the Daily Planet bullpen to add diversity to the gang. Funny to see him changed for similar reasons.

[@artimissbarker1690]

Maybe when intergang returns Silver Banshee's design will be more comic accurate.

[@satishtilokani2990]

MY ADVENTURES WITH SUPERMAN IS my favreat new DC ANIMATED SHOW I love all 3 episodes so far

[@featherguardian6023]

10 out of 10,this Series is getting Better,the Characters are Likable,the Story is Interesting,the Animation is Charming,and you can feel the Protagonist and Antagonists that will Evolve One Way or Another because I like the Changes and Whose to Say that they won’t look Comic Book Accurate.

[@SashaAmess]

Love the show, just hope they explain why young Clark wears glasses…especially since there’s no Superboy identity.

[@mikerosoft2179]

kryptonians naturally have weaker eyesight than humans? Or at least something to do with him not being from earth or space travel damage. Presumably he still wears glasses cos he likes wearing them/to hide the fact that his eyesight got better when he got his powers.

[@Ricks176]

Probably gonna be best adult swim cartoon 😊🎉

[@peacechan4500]

I hope if they can manage the wholesome cuteness of current romance in manga and the battle of the Shounen manga and combined them to make this supe animated series. If they managed that i hope this would be seen as what the market want

[@lucasmower5278]

I think silver banshee would have been a lot better if her mask worked as an amplifier for a power that she already had. Her mask being destroyed could have led her to training her own powers in a revenge plot.

[@devinurbina6868]

Intergang has a collective of three brain cells and they all belong to Myst

[@chrishedricks308]

I actually door how will these two mix in this adaptation and how they don’t just act like robots and actually show their emotion it’s refreshing

[@marcusyates3044]

Superman: "Uh sorry, no comment"

[@christopherledesma1165]

I love this series! Do you think in the future will be figures available?

[@perezo27]

When it comes to the animation, my guess is that the 2 parter was...well, the pilot, it released and felt as such. Once it got approved and execs were like "oh yeah, this gonna get them viewers", upped the budget. Another piece of that is the opening, pilots don't get openings like that, while episode 3 did.

[@jonahda0mega]

I like the show, but the fight scenes don't show his power and takes hits like TAS in the 90s but i think it's slick he's still unlocking all powers because I thought he had them all from the jump

[@marcosdheleno]

it makes sense he is taking hits,this isnt a trained superman, but a normal guy with superpowers. he is far more resilient than normal people, sure, but he spent his whole life suppressing that strength, it makes sense he is far weaker than he should. even his "powerup" in the first episode is less that, and more him finaly allowing his power to flow, in that sense superman is like spiderman, always holding back and pulling his punches.

[@SpartanBrix]

I’m not a DC fan by any means, the most I’ve watched was the Lego Batman Movie and a few Batman: TAS episodes. But I absolutely love this show so far, and for the longest time I thought Superman was the most vanilla superhero ever. Now, I’m starting to like him.

[@optimascrime5235]

I feel kind of feel conflicted about race swapping iconic characters but other than that this show kind of goes hard and it's the 1st time in literal year's for Superman so there's that too

[@marcuscarana9240]

Making Superman as clumsy, socially awkward dork than a manly Gigachad was a greate route to make a Superman series. He's more related as being just a normal guy trying to live a normal life with the only difference is that he was born with gifts whether he likes it or not. Also, anime Superman is sexy as heck.

[@ryufarishakim4404]

3:15 dude just say works 3 times and it works

[@angelosleontarakis6253]

So this is just my interpretation, but I think that the lightning we see when Clark unlocks a new power isn't actually there. I think it's more of a representation of him overcoming one of his mental blocks and accessing more of his power(s) in order to save the people in danger at that moment. It tracks with how Superman is usually portrayed and it makes sense that a dangerous situation would push him to overcome himself, and the lightning is just there to let us know when it happens. On the other hand, if the lightning is actually there, I'm curious to see what they do with it. It seems to be some sort of set-up for a future plot point which gets me really excited. Anyway, great show, can't wait to see more

[@Lonewolf360gaming]

Not only that but each time he destories one of these weapons it unlocks some type of memory of krypton

[@kingdomsonic12]

this supports my theory that Jimmy knows Clark is Superman because he called Clark's phone

[@costelinha1867]

I mean considering he's living with a guy who seems to constantly break things in their house just by merely touching it. You'd think Jimmy at least suspects something. I mean he even complains about how the alarm clock "Exploded again" after Clark accidentally broke it.

[@Halracc]

I have a question Black lion do you recommend the show

[@javoncambridge741]

Why clark looks muscular when he is wearing his reporter uniform but when he wears hi suit he looks Younger

[@connorgrynol9021]

This show reminds me a ton of Avatar- The Last Airbender. The tone and storytelling style both feel similar and some of the absurdity like them posing as Daily Planet reporters also feels like ATLA. I suppose the biggest difference is the roles and pacing. Since Superman is the only combatant, it can’t be compared to ATLA in that respect and since the show is only 6 episodes, the writers don’t has nearly as much time as the writers for Avatar did. I just hope they don’t try to condense this very interesting plot buildup into the next three episodes. Whatever they are building up to definitely needs more time to develop.

[@jonahda0mega]

Also how he activates his power cause no way he survive with his powers passive or always on

[@superjumpbros64]

Yesss

[@davidtrainor9569]

Ronnie could be a nickname for Veronica

[@animo358]

I assume they swapped Ronnie with the intention of making them a rival group of reporters more ongoing than a one-off joke. 1 girl, 2 guys. 1 guy, 2 girls. That's just basic foiling I say. Far as all the Kryptonian tech. I have a "Superman" based theory and an Anime theory. SUPERMAN Theory. They've mentioned the ship growing, which I find so oddly specific despite going nowhere. If I had to guess that means it's likely that at some point, Lexcorp either started construction on an underground subway system (Cross continental or shipping, doesn't matter) or started drilling for Oil. Assuming you even can do that in Kansas. Lex found the ship and looted it. Could have Transformers animated and used it to jumpstart Lexcorp tech even further, or just stolen from it and whatevered with the tech before Livewire stole it. ANIME Theory. With the intense focus on Clark not knowing who/what he is, i'm assuming the season will conclude with Zod coming out from the shadows someway or somehow. Anime loves to do that, usually they insist on making it Time travel or a dead family member so you could easily put Zod on earth and thriving very well I feel without it seeming too incredibly strange.

[@RealZerenaFan]

Surely never watched it but imo I’ve always believed this show to be a sort of Superman anime. why people don’t call it that is beyond me
