  • I like how the main focus is on Clark Kent trying to live is regular life. I hope there's more flashbacks to his childhood and maybe some school experiences.
  • Lois is believable as someone who will eventually become an ambitious and successful reporter. She's fun to watch and her crushing on Clark is hilarious. Not sure how she'll move on from Clark to Superman though.
  • Jimmy is no longer ginger and is an alien conspiracy guy. Can't wait for that to pay off when everyone finds out about Superman's origin lol. Maybe his app will take off big time?

Yeah it's good! I like this kind of Superman. Still just starting out so he's not incredibly powerful yet, and the right amount of dorky human guy.

It’s pretty decent. I’ve read a lot of the Metropolis/Daily Planet focused Superman comics and this feels like an animated version of those. Very refreshing that we’re getting more of Clark’s world than focusing so much on Superman or Krypton. I could have done without the Jimmy race swap - there are plenty of African American characters in Superman comics that could have been used if it was a representation aspiration. It always feels more meaningful to me when diverse characters are introduced instead of swapping existing characters. There’s enough space for everyone in a Superman story IMO.

Also as a Lower Decks and Boys fan, it’s so weird hearing Boimler’s voice on Superman lol. That jive oddly with anyone else? Pretty sure I’ll get used to it tho.
