Far too flamboyant and feminine to be a Superman series. Clark sound more camp in each episode, Lois look terrible with the short hair style, Lets not even start on Jimmy…. Animation looks on par with the She-Ra series which would make sense… Its aimed at the new generation which is fair enough but its just not fitting for Superman.
An entertaining anime style version of Superman. With a gun-ho hyperactive version of Lois Lane. That isn’t too far fetched. It fits the character and the fact that this is more like anime.
Lois reminds me of Tendi from Star Trek Lower Decks.
“Superman works best when his greatest power isn’t strength, flight, or heat vision it’s the choice to stay kind in a world that keeps giving him reasons not to be.” My Adventures with Superman is an 8/10 for me so far. I’m starting Season 3 now, but after watching Seasons 1 and 2, I can honestly say I love this adaptation. It’s not perfect, and there are things I think could be stronger, but this show understands something very important about Superman: he should feel hopeful, kind, emotional, awkward, powerful, and human all at once. What I love most about this series is how much heart it has. This version of Clark Kent is not a cold, distant, godlike Superman. He feels young, nervous, sweet, clumsy, and still unsure of what kind of hero he is becoming. That makes the show feel fresh because it treats Superman less like a fully formed legend and more like a young man learning how to carry the weight of being special without losing the goodness that made him special in the first place. Jack Quaid is great as Clark/Superman. His voice fits this version perfectly because he brings warmth, awkwardness, sincerity, and vulnerability to the character. I like that this Clark is not trying to be cool. He is just genuinely good. He wants to help people. He wants to do the right thing. He wants to understand where he came from, but he also wants to protect the people and world he loves. That is Superman to me. The show does a really good job making Clark feel powerful without making him boring. Sometimes people act like Superman is hard to write because he is too strong, but this series proves the real story is not just whether Superman can win a fight. It’s about who he is emotionally. It’s about identity, belonging, fear, love, responsibility, and what it means to choose kindness even when people fear you. That theme is one of the best parts of Seasons 1 and 2. Clark is constantly learning that being Superman is not only about saving people physically. It’s also about deciding what kind of symbol he wants to be. He is an alien, but he was raised with human love. He has powers that make him different, but his heart is what makes him Superman. The show understands that his humanity comes from his choices, not his biology. I also love Lois Lane in this adaptation. Alice Lee gives Lois so much energy, personality, and emotion. This Lois is ambitious, reckless, funny, stubborn, and extremely driven. She wants the truth, sometimes so badly that she makes mistakes, but that’s what makes her interesting. She is not just “Superman’s love interest.” She feels like a main character with her own goals, flaws, and emotional arc. The Clark and Lois relationship is one of the biggest strengths of the show. Their romance is cute, awkward, funny, and genuinely sweet. I like that it doesn’t feel forced. You can see why they like each other. Clark brings kindness and sincerity, while Lois brings confidence and curiosity. They challenge each other in a way that makes both characters better. The show makes their relationship feel young and heartfelt without losing the importance of who they are in Superman mythology. I also really like Jimmy Olsen here. A lot of adaptations make Jimmy feel like background comic relief, but this show actually gives him personality and importance. Ishmel Sahid makes Jimmy funny, loyal, and likable. I like that his friendship with Clark matters. The trio of Clark, Lois, and Jimmy is the heart of the show, and the series works best when it focuses on their dynamic at the Daily Planet and their growing friendship. Season 1 is a really strong beginning. It introduces Clark, Lois, and Jimmy in a fun way, builds up Metropolis, gives us Clark discovering his powers, and slowly introduces the bigger Kryptonian mystery. I liked how Season 1 kept things smaller and more personal at first. It felt like a coming-of-age Superman story mixed with workplace comedy, superhero action, romance, and sci-fi mystery. That’s one of the reasons the show works. It doesn’t start with Superman already being treated like the greatest hero in the world. It starts with him figuring it out. He makes mistakes. He gets overwhelmed. He tries to hide parts of himself. He worries about being seen as dangerous. That makes his journey feel emotional. The Daily Planet side of the show is also fun. I like seeing Clark, Lois, and Jimmy as young reporters trying to prove themselves. That gives the show a good grounding point. Superman stories need the big alien sci-fi mythology, but they also need the human side. The Daily Planet gives the show that everyday energy so the larger Superman stuff doesn’t feel disconnected. Season 2 expands the world in a way I really enjoyed. It goes deeper into Kryptonian lore, Clark’s identity, the fear people have of Superman, and the emotional weight of being connected to a world he doesn’t fully understand. I liked that Season 2 felt bigger without completely losing the heart of Season 1. Kara/Supergirl was one of the best additions. I really liked how the show brought her into this universe and made her feel important to Clark’s story without just making her a copy of him. Kara adds a different side to the Kryptonian legacy because her experience is not Clark’s experience. Clark was raised on Earth with love, while Kara carries more direct pain, conditioning, and confusion from the larger Kryptonian conflict. That contrast makes her interesting. The Superman and Supergirl dynamic works because it shows two different ways of being Kryptonian. Clark represents nurture, compassion, and the human family that shaped him. Kara represents the trauma and burden of Krypton’s legacy in a different way. I liked that the show used her to make Clark question more about where he comes from and what Krypton actually means. Brainiac and the bigger Kryptonian conflict gave Season 2 more weight. I like when Superman stories deal with the idea that Krypton is not just some perfect lost world. Sometimes it can be memory, trauma, legacy, and danger all at once. Clark wants to understand his origins, but the show also reminds us that where you come from does not have to define who you become. That is a major Superman theme, and this adaptation handles it well. Clark is Kryptonian by birth, but he is also a Kent. He is an alien, but he is also deeply human. He is powerful, but he is not cruel. He could become something terrifying if raised differently, but because he was loved, he chooses to protect. That is what makes Superman beautiful as a character. I also like how the show uses General Lane, Task Force X, and the government fear of Superman. That part feels very true to Superman stories because people in power often fear what they can’t control. The show explores how Superman’s existence scares certain people, not because he is evil, but because he is powerful and unknown. That creates conflict without making Superman darker than he needs to be. The villains are one of the more mixed parts for me. I like that the show reimagines DC villains in a younger, more sci-fi, anime-inspired way. Livewire, Parasite, Deathstroke, and other characters feel updated for this version of the universe. Some of the redesigns and changes are cool, and I respect that the show is not just copying old versions. But some villains could use more depth or more time to become memorable. That is probably one of my main cons. Because the show moves fast and has a lot of characters, some villains feel more like fun obstacles than fully developed threats. The emotional villains and larger story arcs work better than some of the smaller villain-of-the-week material. I enjoy the action, but I do think certain antagonists could hit harder if they had more time to breathe. The animation style is something I really enjoy overall. The anime influence gives the show a fun, expressive, energetic feel. The action scenes have speed and personality, and the character expressions make the comedy and emotional moments work. Clark looking awkward, Lois looking intense, Jimmy reacting dramatically all of that helps the show feel alive. The animation also helps make Superman feel exciting again. Flight feels fast and free. The powers feel colorful and energetic. The fights have that sci-fi anime flavor, which separates this from other Superman adaptations. It may not always have the biggest budget look, and there are moments where the animation could be smoother or more detailed, but the style itself fits the tone of the show. I also love the designs. Clark looks softer and younger, which fits this version. Lois has a great modern design and personality. Jimmy feels fun and expressive. Kara’s design works really well for this universe. The show feels like it was built to bring in younger viewers while still respecting longtime Superman fans. Comic comparison-wise, this is definitely not a straight-up traditional Superman adaptation. It changes characters, redesigns villains, shifts relationships, and gives the mythology a more anime/sci-fi feeling. But I don’t think that’s a bad thing. Good adaptations don’t always need to copy everything exactly. They need to understand the heart of the character. And this show understands Superman’s heart. Compared to some darker modern Superman interpretations, I really appreciate how hopeful this is. It doesn’t make Clark naive or childish, but it lets him be good. That matters. Superman should not feel embarrassed to be kind. The show understands that optimism can be powerful, especially when the world around him keeps questioning him. Compared to Superman: The Animated Series, this show is younger, softer, more romantic, and more coming-of-age focused. Superman: The Animated Series feels more classic and definitive in certain ways, while My Adventures with Superman feels like a fresh modern remix. Both work for different reasons. Compared to something like Smallville, this show also focuses on Clark becoming Superman, but it moves faster and leans more into comic-book sci-fi. Smallville was more teen drama and long-form origin story, while My Adventures with Superman feels more like a fun animated superhero romance adventure. The show also reminds me of why Superman works so well when the supporting cast is strong. Lois and Jimmy are not just side characters. They are part of why Clark becomes the hero he is. Lois pushes him toward truth and courage. Jimmy gives him friendship and loyalty. Ma and Pa Kent give him love and moral grounding. Superman is powerful because of Krypton, but he is good because of the people who love him. That emotional foundation is what makes this adaptation work for me. It’s not just about powers and villains. It’s about friendship, found family, romance, identity, and the fear of being different. Clark, Lois, Jimmy, and Kara all deal with questions of who they are and where they belong. That makes the show feel more personal. The pros are clear: great voice cast, lovable main trio, strong Clark/Lois romance, fun animation, strong emotional core, fresh designs, good Superman themes, and a really likable version of Clark. The show has heart, and that is the most important thing for a Superman adaptation. The cons are mostly pacing, some underdeveloped villains, and certain storylines moving a little too quickly. Sometimes I wish the show would slow down and let moments breathe more. Some arcs feel like they could hit harder with more episodes. But even with those issues, the show is still really enjoyable. Overall, My Adventures with Superman Seasons 1 and 2 are an 8/10 for me. I love this adaptation because it understands Superman as a character. It understands his kindness, his loneliness, his fear, his hope, and his desire to help. It gives us a Superman who is still learning, but already has the heart of the hero he is going to become. It’s not perfect, but it’s charming, emotional, fun, romantic, and full of love for Superman’s world. I’m excited to start Season 3 because this version of Superman has already won me over
great show with great art.
