wkow I love this … it has that retro feel. the intro reminds me of those gamer cds that you used to get for free in the PC magazines in the late eighties and nineties.

I love the theme song to The New Adventures of Superman (available in the TV section =) ).

“Super, super, Suuupermaaan!” Good ol’ vintage animation!

  • Supergirl: “Fight Song” by Rachel Platten

  • Alex Danvers: “One Call Away” by Charlie Puth

  • Birds of Prey: “Revolution” by Aimee Allen

  • Suicide Squad: “Heathens” by Twenty One Pilots

  • Felicity Smoak: “B****” by Meredith Brooks (I love Felicity, so this song choice isn’t in any way meant as an insult)

  • Superman: “Superman (It’s Not Easy”) by Five for Fighting

  • Batman: “What I’ve Done” by Linkin Park

Not to be “that guy”, but Black Magic Woman isn’t “by” Carlos Santana/Santana; it was written and performed originally by the Peter Green-fronted Fleetwood Mac during their “Blues” period in the 60s.
