My Adventures With Superman Pulled A Crazy Twist
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 чер 2024
- In it’s first season, My Adventures With Superman cemented itself as an incredibly unique and well handled take on the Man of Steel and his lore with a heavy focus on making these characters as cute as possible. Then, in a new TV landscape where season twos come out multiple years after season 1, My Adventures with Superman is a return to the old formula with season 2 coming out just 9 months after season 1 and what I’ll be doing in this video is a mid season review, going over the first 5 episodes of season 2.

What's crazy is, people will compared this to Invincible and the Viltrumite storyline even though this has ALREADY happened in Superman media.
Invincible is just what if Zod was Supermans father.
Invincible is combining the raw power of Kryptonians with the bloodlust of Saiyans.
True that Kryptonians were of two sides the Scientist division trying to find a way to get the civilians off world or save krypton from destruction and the Military division which comprise of General Zod and his followers who want to show the supremacy of Kyrptonians
How often do you even see Super Man media nowadays anyway? Games he really doesn’t get any instead they just be making em evil in stories or putting him against Batman most of the time, at least my adventures with superman is the most fresh thing we have gotten in a long while.
But invincible is a way better show with way better characters. Superman is a boring mary sue POS who deserves to be forgotten as there are way better and more interesting superheroes these days, the lack of views and talk from this show is proof of that
I never expected for Jack Quaid as Superman to be Perfect Casting
He's very good man. Glad the show is renewed for a 3rd season !
Basically Hughie if had Homelander powers but all the Morality and responsiblity that comes from it he learning to become the hero we know he will be in the comics and other animation depicting Superman in his prime but we also like to know did he ever make mistakes and what help him learn his powers and abilities to the point were he handles situation with the care and strategy of the veteran we all look up to
Its funny because he plays Hughie, representing the regular dude coming into the corrupt superhero world, so he plays the most simple-minded clark kent who doesn't want to fight but just wants to help
His subtle change of voice tone from Clark to Superman is amazing. Almost upto the level of what Kevin Conroy did for Batman and Buce Wayne.
This incarnation of Brainiac is NOT to be messed with. He not only destroys Krypton, but takes it a step further by gathering all the remnants of the Kryptonian people and forming his own empire, with a brainwashed Supergirl as his enforcer.
I think what makes Brainiac terrifying is that he is not the most terrifying. He contributed to the destruction of Krypton, but it was mentioned that the planet was destroyed in a war "Krypton couldn't win", which is supposed to be Darkside. This means Darkside destroyed this Krypton, which, if we measure it by Kara, has all of Supermans powers. So Brainiac surviving this is already terrifying
Gaslighter braniac is scary
@@iordanvassilev8091 THIS. when darkseid and Brainiac actually arrive in a combat scene, its going to be insane
Going to be honset, any lack of fight scenes is probably because they're saving up for larger fight scenes near the end
For sure. Read the summaries for the rest of the season and you'll see some stuff is about to go down
I like quick, and short fight scenes. I know I am not in the majority but I like it when fights are fast.
I don’t mind. I like the characters interacting with each other. Game of thrones had very little fight scenes in the earlier seasons
I guess someone really wanted to do evil Supergirl after Young Justice was cancelled.
A super evil, it's the most annoying thing that can happen.
Even tho she's been (temporarily) evil for the past 5 years.
The dude had a Gundam shield. Why does he have a Gundam shield? It even has the emblem.
Pure reference just like Kara's outfit.
Season 2 did what a Good Sequel should do, escalates the Story, Expand the World, and add New Heights than ever Before, the Cast is so Good, the Animation still is as Fluid with Improvements, and we’re seeing New Allies and Threats that will affect the Story going forward, it’s clear that the Story is focusing on Xenophobia, the Sense of feeling a sense of Solitude being Ignored, the Concequeces of our Actions both Good or Bad Intentional could bring Unpredictable Outcomes, Lois is struggling with her own issues with her Father and deciding if she should take the opportunity while feeling Small around Clark, Jimmy needs to learn about Responsibility and his Good Intentions accidentally gave Alex the Push he needed to slowly Evolve into Lex Luthor which is his Best Friend Future Arch Nemesis that has obtained the Tools, Fundings, and Recruits he needs to his Criminal Empire, and Clark has the most weight on his shoulders than anyone when he feels isolated from his Girlfriend, Best Friend, and the World Rejecting Him as a Danger, not to mention he what to see the Only Family he has left from his Dead Planet that could Understand and doesn’t want to regret this Chance the same way he did to Joe-El and yet it would seem like things would get Worse, Brainiac and Kara being the Main Threat of this Season is honestly a Clever Idea that has never been done before and Clark has History there share in any form of Media, plus I love Supergirl in this Version that the CW Version failed as Kara should be more Alien than her Cousin and she’s so Likable, Cute, and Adorable but you also feel this sense that she’s trying to make her “Father” Proud but shows grimaces of Humanity and being Controlled like a Weapon of War, also I was waiting for Jimmy and Kara to be with each other for Years so I would love to see more of them, all in all so Far Half of the Season is Good and I can’t wait for what’s Coming Next as this is Peak Superman.
I agree with your statement but not to be 'that guy'. Could you fix your run on sentences? Im having trouble following you for over half of what was written down. But besides that, you made some valid points
Anyone else noticed Kara being brainwashed seeing as when you look at here eyes when said robotic voice says comply in the latest episode it loses that spark of freedom and becomes dull I thought I was seeing things at first when I noticed it
I thought it was just my mind playing tricks on me,but good to know I was right
Theory: Hank's wife died in-between the 1st episode and this most recent episode cos superman failed to save her or something but Hank's trying to act all cool about it or he got himself into the event cos superman'd be there. Or him & his wife have a very open relationship (this is on adult swim).
You keep talking about realism and breaking immersion, but i think you and everyone else forgets the important factor: this is a superhero comic show. Getting too deep into realism pulls out a lot of the fun and excitement of seeing the action and waiting with anticipation for the situation with Kara and Brainiac.
The DCAU managed to balance the fantastic elements of comic books with grounded reality. There is no excuse to not do the same.
@MrMovieMaker116 maybe but was way deeper into the DCAU. This is a new continuity and it's just getting started. And Superman is generally a more fantastic experience compared to a Batman.
Though there are still some dumb plot holes and errors like the Hank Henshaw single or married thing.
@@jfb173jb It wasn’t just in JL and JLU. Batman and Superman TAS didn’t have normal people act like charicatures or have non-sensical world building like having children work as staff for a multi-million division of a news company. Lex Luthor was not like Amanda Waller, making bizarre choices and ignoring any advantage that he knew about (Waller not immediately going after Lois when she knew she could use her as leverage). And the fact that Slade KNOWS that Waller caused the incident that cost him his eye and doesn’t seek retribution is unforgivable. It feels like the world is dumbed down where people act like idiots or children with the exception of Clark. It’s just…too much…
@@MrMovieMaker116 did they really? They did a bad job of it then.
The man said he doesn’t understand how Jimmy spent $100,000.00 on Valentine’s Day card. Look at the size of the Daily Planet building. The viewers are only exposed to one floor in the entire building and we don’t know the total amount of floors the Daily Planet has. Plus some people believe that when you have more, you should spend more.
My only issue with this season has been the forced drama. Clark and Lois are young adults dating at the peak of their game! They should be DYING to meet each other everyday to... well, you know what couples do. Also it seems many days pass between episodes, so they should have plenty of time to talk. You can't possibly expect me to believe they only see each other at work!
"Drama due to miscommunication that could easily be solved with a conversation" is one of my most hated tropes in cinema.
Sometimes conversations make things worse
Idk why ppl keep comparing this Superman to Invincible when Superman in general has done everything he has already. Man Of Steel even did it before Invincible. Like yall need to REALLY stop saying Invincible did it first
The argument would still technically check out. While you would be correct in the fact that the invincible show came out after Man of steel (2021 vs 2013) the invincible comic line started back in 2003.
Tho by mentioning comics I bet there’s a Superman comic run somewhere out there that I’m not aware of that did it before the invincible comic run lol
I think both are different enough though that it doesn’t really matter “who did it first” I think they’re both good in their own means.
@@Jackendothe first Superman comic came out in the 1940s
@@toomin2316 More so referring to the first time Krypton was used as an ‘evil’ regime was used in the comics
17:49 I think he was there because he heard Superman was going to show up and wanted to confront him
I think this is my favorite design and storyline for Supergirl. She and Jimmy were so cute together. But I did not expect her to be evil. That was a great twist. I’m honestly loving this show. Can’t wait for next week
Honestly, we are talk about a civilization that sleepwalked itself into extinction. They should have a special brand of messed up. I love Kara's armor too.
I'm starting to realise that Jack Quaid might be my favourite Superman. Maybe.
Gonna be tough to beat Yuri Lowenthal for me
He and Tyler Hoechlin are tied for my favorite at the moment lol
I have to admit, I was surprised he was doing it. However, I've been really impressed so far.
He'll probably be cast as Sephiroth next, apparently, many voice actors that played superman also play Sephiroth.
Him and Cavil are personally my favourites
It’s unfair to compare my adventures of Superman with X-Men 97. 1. X-Men 97 is a continuation of one of the greatest shows from the 90s. While My adventures of Superman is new show bringing Superman back to his roots. Especially after the over saturation of evil supermen. 2. Disney is the biggest company on the planet and can afford to splurge on animation. While Warner Brothers have been struggling do to the miss management that’s been going on at the top. 3. Both Marvel and Disney have built up diehard fans that never leave and Disney knows how to fan bait. While Warner brothers and DC has one of the worst splits in fandom history.
Thank you. I agree with you about this review on the animation because the animation for MAWS isn’t the best but it’s damn good for a modern adaptation. Marvel has the resources to produce immaculate animation than DC. As you said X-men 97 is a 27 year old show with plots that were never animated or brought into fruition until now. Plus most people including the show runners of MAWS were most likely worried about the future of this show because it shows on toonami and Max instead of Cartoon Network that has more viewers.
exactly, superman is an outdated POS that is running on life support and is completely irrelevant, there way better superheroes than superman these days, we don't need him and his boring stories. The lack of popularity this show has compared to other superhero shows like invincible and x-men 97 is proof of that.
@@serpenterra9994 bait
I agree with all these points, the comparison was beyond stupid.
Superman is not outdated, there is nothing outdated about doing good for the sake of doing good.
3:20 - It's actually been around for a while in the Comics. Superman #8 Clark had a potential vision that Krypton would've conquered Earth same with the New Earth version of Krypton as well.
I hope the animation gets a bigger budget, as you said the action scenes are pretty short. Studio Mir are the animators, the ones behind Legend of Korra. They are very good at animating fight scenes, so it’s clearly just a money issue.
Episode 5 is probably one of the best (if not the best) episodes of the series so far. I had a strong feeling Kara was the Kryptonian Warrior and Im glad it came true as it makes sense. I really like this take on Kara and how more brash, cold and impulsive she is despite clearly having a good heart and affection for Earth and her dynamic with Jimmy is super cute (I ship them❤️). Im interested to see where they take Kara's character next and what her relationship with Brainiac is as it appears Kara sees Brainiac as her father which is an interesting twist on the mythos, since in other continuities Brainiac is sometimes the cause of Krypton's destruction and stole the Kryptonian city of Kandor for his collection.
Btw all the Dragon Ball Z influences in the show are so great, Kara's design looking like Android 18, Kara and Clark fighting like Goku and Vegeta was SO COOL!
Seeing Lois and Clark potentially break up is devastating, even if they'll inevitably work things out. They really shouldve had a moment to talk about this. Seeing Lois doubt herself even though Clark loves her no matter what is truly relatable especially in your young adult years and her own abandonment issues with her dad does make her self doubt more understandable. Cat's advice to Lois is also pretty heavy.
Btw I took an really loving how the show is handling Lex Luthor as the natural build up to his rise as the villain we all love to hate and him establishing LexCorp all because Jimmy inspired him is truly exciting to see and I took really dig his villainous theme and I like how we get a better look into Lex's philosophy about Superman and how his views are starting to manipulate others in Metropolis like Hank Henshaw who will likely become Cyborg Superman down the line. Honestly I feel like this take on Lex was what Zack Snyder was trying to do with the character in BvS, only executed a whole lot better in this show.
Jimmy and Kara remind me of Miles and Gwen.
Lmao 😂
I’ve been waiting for this video!
Loving all the Lois & Clark moments. The Alex was Lex twist was a huge relief because it would have been very embarrassing if we guessed wrong!
Also, yeah, that twist with Kara was INSANE but not unwelcome.
I called the twist I knew that they wouldn’t hide the Kryptoian if it was Zod. And the focus on Kara this season it was obvious
Man i was hoping for episode by episode reviews from you :/ your Season 1 reviews were what got me into your channel
13:30 Neither Jimmy or Lois can debate. They can't present obvious facts in Superman's favor. The only argument they seem to be able to use is "Superman saves people".
Lex can’t debate either as he was working for a supervillain and his arguments are *at best* speculation
@@justinbowers2749 That makes it worse for Lois and Jimmy.
Well I’m betting everything will turn out good in the end like super girl becoming good and I would be to surprised if jimmy and Kara become a thing
Imagine the shock on the general and amanda's face when they realize they waisted 22 years of their lives, when Darkside makes an appearance.
I think the show is great, I don't think the X-Men '97 style of animation would work for a show that is still half comedy half action-drama.
I wish they had mined more out of the humor in Sam living with Clark and Clark trying to keep his identity secret while also trying to prove he's worthy of Sam's daughter.
I love that we got a Supergirl who's far closer to the comics version then the CW one was. Kara didn't grow up on earth and doesn't have the same connection to it that Superman has which helps distinguish her from Clark.
Jack Quaid is amazing as he is in everything he does. And I like the Chris Parnell is making a real effort to change the tone and style of his voice so he doesn't sound like Jerry Smith or Cyril Figgis cause in season 1 that really made it hard to take the character of Deathstroke seriously.
Last time I checked, I thought Brainiac would be Season 2's main antagonist; not Luthor or Kara
We are still only half way through season 2
We got 5 more episodes
He still could be the main villain and if not I could see him being setup for season three
He is, he's just in the background right now, we'll officially meet him in the next episode.
Kara isn't gonna be a main antagonist, she's obviously reluctant and not wanting to do it, and is pretty obviously being pressured by brainiac, and there's even a shot of her pupils slightly changing right before the frost breath scene
Yeah Silver Saint Cloud's design was pretty good.😏
Thank you for pointing out the Hank Henshaw thing. It was something I noticed right away and it bagged me so much
This season has been good man. Not as good as the first season, but looks like things are going to get interesting and exciting.
For me I think this season is a little bit better than Season One but there's still more episodes to go and that could change, so we'll see. One thing I hope either this season or Season Three reveals is who was the Kryptonian Warrior from Zero Day and where are they now since Kara was still a newborn
Cara: being helped
Omni man: drowning
Zod: At the bottom of the sea.
You did a good job breaking the episodes down.
I think Season 1 is better, but Season 2 is still very good.
Wow, thanks for spoiling us with that thumbnail, real classy
I'm willing to be WB didn't give this show much of a budget, hence why its animation isn't up to the level of Xmen or Invincible. Also, I think Jimmy never asked Kara what her cousin's name is because he wanted to extend their date as long as possible.
Cyborg Superman does have a wife in the comics if you go back and read his origin
Kara has a very rodent like face, which is adorable.
I kinda felt she looked like a cat.
Thank yooou for spoiling that twist in the thumbnail
Name dropping the concept art from the first couple of seasons in order to foreshadow the END
"Child slave labor" I CAN'T BREATHE 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That thumbnail really spoiled the episode for me lol
U forgot to mention that Flip was revealed to be the show universe version of Nathalie Irons
Really?
@@uncannydcmarvelous5732 Yup, John Irons said that she her niece Nathalie
No Flip isn't Natalie. Flip said John's niece was the one who sent the anonymous call for Flamebird's help.
I’m so glad you’re covering this show, don’t know why nobody else is. Although I do have to say that their marketing is horrible and is probably the reason to why not as many people are watching this. I literally only found out more episodes were out because of this video
I'm not too bothered by this version of Metalo as, in the comics, one rendition is a literal Kryptonian robot, and if I'm not mistaken, it predates John Corben's Metallo.
You drew the line at the kids? A whole season 1 if everything in season 1 of a superman show? To be fair though I haven't seen this show as particularly realistic like you do
I liked this season though the last two episodes really are getting good now. I really like Kara in this show. I never knew of Kiana Mediera before but she's fine as the voice and her design while it definitely takes inspiration from Android 18s second outfit is pretty good
they we're not avoiding Lex season 1 they we're not allowed to use him in a show during season 1 alongside most of Superman's villains
I do think that season 2 of my adventures with Superman was a good season of the series so far, and I can't wait to see how the rest of the season plays out, as well as the confirmed third season.
cara knows that the bigger the shoulderpads, the better
Here’s a thought if you’re going to make a video that has a major spoiler for the latest episode in the thumbnail… either blur it out or put a spoiler warning in the thumbnail. Not everyone sees everything as it airs
I saw that plot twist coming a mile away lol😂
And then, in my humble opinion, episode 6 was a 10 out of 10.
It’s not X-men 97 but I am loving season 2.
So when are the next episodes coming out ?
I think the series is good but also flips back and forth more than my enjoyment aligns with. The public may mostly be pro Superman at the moment. But pretty much everyone else both official and behind the scenes is anti Superman. Also in this show’s multiverse Superman generally takes over or destroys the Earth. So Clark becoming the hero we’re familiar with while probable is not a forgone conclusion.
Jack Quaid as Superman
Jensen Ackles as Batman
I love it
I've always wondered what the MCU would have looked like if it was based around the Defenders isteadnof the Avengers. I think it would look like this.
Phase 1
Daredevil. Ironman.
The incredible Hulk.
Daredevil man without fear. Ironman 2.
Thor.
Iron First. Captain America the first Avenger.
Defenders. Avengers.
Phase 2
Daredevil Devils reign. Ironman 3.
Thor the dark world.
The incredible Hulk 2.
Fantastic 4. Guardians of the galaxy.
Defenders Beyond. Avengers Age of Ultron.
Jessica Jones. Antman.
Phase 3
The incredible Hulk rampage.
Doctor Strange.
Fantastic 4 Annihilation. Guardians of the Galaxy vol 2.
Hawkeye. Spider-man homecoming.
Thor Ragnarök.
Namor.
New Defenders. Avengers infinity war.
Jessica Jones and Luke Cage. Amtman and the Wasp.
Silver Surfer. Captain Marvel.
Secret Defenders. Avengers endgame.
Hawkeye 2. Spider-man far from home.
This is how I'd do the Infinity Saga, but I'd like to see you do a verse.
Cara is very different from the comics....
Me: *and I like it*
Hopefully she won't decide to live in 3000 years into the future, because ....*sigh* this version of Cara is just too entertaining!
I still can that made Matt Holt (pidge's brother) lex luthor
Jimmy's interns felt like something to appeal to the younger kids and not for the older teens and adults. Which, for me, is fine.
Vicky is wrong about lois not being "good" enough for superman. How did this channel get the opposite message from that
critic brain
this is how it really is in animation:
xmen 97 > maws > invincible
Jack Henshaw reminds me Hal Jordan a lot!!!!
Is no one gonna mention the clear and obvious gundam shield that Mr lane was wielding?...no one?...ok...
Anyone else spend most of the kara ep laughing because shes dressed exactly like android 18 from dbz?
my guess is lucy lane will be sam and amanda waller daughter
Metallo as another army of generic robots is definitly one the more dissapointing adaptations in this show, especially since they look like any other robot with no distinct features, BUT the fact they introduce Henk Henshaw whose seemingly a recurring character now and shows animosity towards Superman, got me thinking they are setting him up to become Cyborg Superman, which would make me excuse the Metallo. Mostly cause both characters are very similair being human turn into cyborg, just with different gimmicks (one having Kryptonite as power source, the other being Superman imposter), so I think maybe Cyborg Superman might be just take a role of classic Metallo in this show.
Anyone else notice that Kara looks kinda like Android 18 from the Cell Saga
What do you mean...? Kara has always had blonde hair and blue eyes.
@leticianeal9147 I ment her outfit and how her hair is done
@@roccotherayquaza2468 The outfit? Sorta. The hair? Not at all, 18 has short hair yes, but not the same short hairstyle as Kara.
@leticianeal9147 it's similar
Yes, she is really look like android 18
Is that a RX-78/EFSF shield?
The episode 2 child slave labor controversy will create consequences. When Luthor finds out, he will buy and shut it down because its relevance has lost its way. Not because of their reporting but because of its behavior with its employees and the public.
The "Cutting off" plot point was a lot in just the first few episodes, but it keeps on going... It's kinda getting on my nerves.
Am I the only one who considered Supergirl's human outfit similar to Android 18? And her on the broken kryptonian armor like Dark Saber? Did someone else see the same?
Everyone keeps comparing her to Android 18.
I’m still thoroughly enjoying this series, so far. My only complaint is that this show hasn’t played up the rivalry between Lex Luthor and Superman . . . Not yet, anyway. So far, Superman and Lex have BARELY interacted with each other! They haven’t even directly spoken to each other yet. In fact, Jimmy has more of a personal rivalry with Lex than Superman does, especially since Jimmy is the one who inadvertently puts Lex on the path of becoming a supervillain in this continuity.
I hope we get more direct exchanges between Lex and Superman down the road, both in action set pieces and in playful banter. As of now, it feels rather odd and disappointing to see our hero barely interact with his most famous arch villain like this. It’s like watching a Batman show where Batman and The Joker barely interact with each other.
Tbh I think Jimmy is probably spending money too much on overly expensive things (the valentine cards thing may also refer to other stuff that he spent money on shown in that scene but not as obviously which is why the money went down so much).
I’ve no complaints from this show
I like how they keep the design original so you can't see any resemblance to marvel
I have 3 video ideas
Nintendo Cinimatic Universe
Arrowverse but aloud to use characters like Batman, so the Batverse
A Marvel animated universe structured like the DCAMU
Is it just me or does Kara look a lot like Android 18 from Dragon Ball Z with her Civilian outfit?
With the dbz references? Does this makes kara vegeta?
She's dressed like android 18
@ben0789 yep I saw that right away
It's not that crazy, it was hinted at in Season 1's end.
Why was Kara dressed like Android 18?
I love the show, but I think that shazam would have been a better fit for this series
I don't understand why some people for animated shows will be like this looks nothing like this like yeah it's a different show and studio dumby why would they copy
change my mind my adventures with Superman is invincible if it was made by 4kids
Where the lois father get that gundam shild i need one
Lol if i was Clark i would try to get woth Kara, she's the perfect match..... cousin or not
Ok
Honestly i think season 2 is better than season 1 but has a lot of flaws especially with making metallo a robot is such a garbage idea from the very beginning to its end in my opinion, however I am excited for supergirl storyline with brainac because oh boy this story with Superman and his cousin Kara is going to be super interesting and really amazing in my opinion.
Lol, maybe they don't have child labor laws in that universe.
🤘🏿
Why does the animation look like marvel's Spider-Man 2017
is this show for kids or is it Adult Swim
This show and Unicorn: Warriors Eternal moved to Adult Swim🏊♀️ instead of initially Cartoon Network because it’s likely the only way these shows could get released at all instead of becoming two out of the million tax write offs. So kids CAN watch these shows.
Yes
Kara looks like android 18, which I love 😆
We just want a decent review that why so sensitive both shows are great
Do they need to redesign Steel's costume? It's unbelievable; what does he do to ball himself up? That's crazy bad design
This show is the best supergirl we’ve had in a long while and I’m loving it more and more!
