:clark_hv_5: I hope you love it! They depower Supes a bit which is annoying in some parts but it’s fine overall. It’s the best example of him as a man with a Kansas heart. I think the stories are spectacular! I can’t wait to find out what your favorite episodes end up being!

Here’s a original characters art design by Bruce Timm. He try to make it like the 1940 Max Fletcher Superman animation style.


As you can see it was going to be like Batman The Animated Series style, glad he change it to it’s own style.

By the way I found some characters model sheets on google! :grinning:

You know I’ve always struggled to pinpoint exactly when I became so enthralled with Superman. As far back as I can remember I’ve just seamed to know too much about the character but I’m pretty sure this had to be my earliest introduction to him and explains a lot. This show is just super fantastic! Thank you @Lincolnfan78 for putting all this behind the scenes info up! I am thoroughly enjoying it!

Did you know there was a deleted scene in Apokolips…now Part 2? It was during the funeral scene…


Stan Lee, characters from Marvel comics, producers of Superman The Animated Series were going to be in a funeral scene. Sadly that didn’t happen. Here’s the scene picture in the episode.

This was a tribute to Jack Kirby.

I watched this series from day one, it’s fantastic. It’s every bit as good as B:TAS, in my opinion. I own both on DVD, and have been wondering when we’d get this in HD. It’s going to be fun to WAL these episodes, and like @Bar-El, I’m interested to see what your opinion of the series is, Welcome to the Fun!

  1. Did you watch Superman The Animated Series when it first aired on TV?

Definitely. I was just becoming the Superman fanatic that I am, and this show was a big influence.

  1. What’s your favorite episode?

Apokolips…Now! Part 2.

“In the end…the world didn’t need a Superman. Just a brave one.”

Gets me everytime.

  1. Who’s your Favorite Character?

Not counting Superman of course, then it’s the Toyman. But I love them all, so it’s really difficult to say.

  1. What’s your favorite Issue from Superman Adventures?

This one, because I love the twist at the end, but I could pick any issue of Mark Millar’s and it would be just as true. His run of issues on this series is my favorite work of his.

The re-release on HBO Max is in HD, so I’m really hoping that means we get a Blu-Ray release soon.

My Toyman figure display (took a few months to put together, but I love how it turned out).

No problem. I loved this series and would be over the moon if they brought it back like they’re doing with Batman, even if just for a season. I would give anything to see their versions of villains like Solaris, Magog, Manchester Black, Superboy Prime, Atomic Skull, Lord Vyndktvx, or Xa-Du.

There’s 1 comic I actually forgot about while doing the comic stuff, but better late then never. :slightly_smiling_face:

I’m so glad I found this ?topic?thread?post?. It’s interesting too. I just today decided to watch Superman TAS from my DVD collection. I am looking forward to the HD release. I didn’t know it was scheduled. One of the things that I really like, is the opening credits. Music and all. My brother, Jor-El, :sunglasses: in the first episode (The Last Son Of Krypton Part 1, 2 & 3) is what got me hooked. Great artwork and story. It’s what inspired my personal DC story. (I’m also Bruce Wayne’s little brother.)
I’m gonna keep coming back a lot. Thanks for doing this for us, @Lincolnfan78
