My Adventures With Superman is a 2023 animated superhero series based upon DC Comics’ very own Man of Steel, produced by Warner Bros. Animation for [adult swim] and Max. Featuring a highly Animesque take on the character, it is developed by Jake Wyatt (DuckTales (2017), Invader Zim: Enter the Florpus) and co-executive produced by Josie Campbell (Justice League Action, She-Ra and the Princesses of Power). Debuting on July 6, 2023, the series also marks the first solo Superman animated series since Superman: The Animated Series ended 23 years prior.The show follows Clark Kent (Jack Quaid) as a budding intern reporter at the Daily Planet alongside fellow interns Lois Lane (Alice Lee) and Jimmy Olsen (Ishmel Sahid). After a harrowing childhood incident with the spaceship that brought him to Earth, the alien has gone out of his way to avoid getting answers about who he is and how he ended up being raised by a couple in Kansas. However, when an eager Lois drags him and Jimmy into investigating a group of criminals and the suspiciously otherworldly military tech they stole, Clark quickly finds himself on the path to learning more about his origins than he ever wished or imagined, all while adjusting to his new role of protector for his new home of Metropolis, butting heads with Task Force X, and maybe taking Lois out on a date. You know, if they both have time.A comic book mini-series of the same name is set for release on June 4th, 2024. Written by producer Josie Campbell with art by Pablo M. Collar, the comic is based on an unproduced episode of the show and will serve as an interquel taking place between seasons one and two.Previews: Teaser, Trailer, Intro, Clip 1

Superman repeatedly tells others that he just wants to help others because he can. But everyone from Lois to Task Force X believes that he must have an ulterior motive instead of being exactly what he claims to be.

Two-Person Love Triangle: Unlike most adaptations, Lois is clearly attracted to Clark straight off, but she's still got her typical crush on Superman as shown by her blushing when flying with him, though she gets more frustrated with the Man of Steel as he seemingly dodges her questions.

 My Adventures with Superman / int_1c445e86
comment
Poor Communication Kills: The fifth episode sees Clark's, Lois', and Jimmy's friendship strained to the breaking point by lack of communication. Both Clark and Lois miss their planned camping trip with Jimmy because of their respective personal issues (being Superman and proving that Clark is Superman respectively). Lois becomes frustrated with Clark's absences while Clark becomes increasingly nervous because of Lois' insistence on drawing out all of Superman's secrets. The episode ends with Lois rejecting Clark because she feels she can't trust him, Clark blowing up at Lois because of his worry for her and fear of being exposed, and Jimmy venturing off into the wilderness alone, only to be dragged away by a gorilla.

From the original Star-Spangled Comics onward, Scrapper was always the feistiest and most stereotypical "Dead End Kid" of the Newsboy Legion, up for a fight at any time. His counterpart here, Patti, keeps his energetic streak, but can best be described as "feral".

Kryptonite Factor
 My Adventures with Superman / int_22ecc839
comment
Kryptonite Factor: Red sunlight. Many of Task Force X robots and equipments are powered by it and it does weaken Clark and makes him more vulnerable. However, the iconic green rocks themselves seem to be completely absent from the show itself, with no indication of any showing up on Earth, until Episode 7 introduces them, used by the dimension-hopping League of Lois Lanes as a counter to evil alternates of Superman. When used in laser blasts against Clark, they cause his body to develop green veins and Kryptonite crystals, though these swiftly recede after a brief period of incapacitation. By the episode's end, Mr. Mxyzptlk leaves Lois a shard to be used against Clark as well as a file showing how many Evil Doppelgangers he has, but the fact that it had to be provided from an alternate universe and the lack of any usage against Clark despite Task Force X's animosity towards him indicates that Kryptonite is either still undiscovered in his home universe or otherwise absent. "Hearts of the Fathers" confirms Kryptonite exists in the show's universe, and heavily implies that Jor-El chose Earth as a safe haven for Clark because there were no traces of Kryptonite on it, among other factors, as it's shown that Kryptonian technology also reacts badly and crystalizes in the presence of Lois' shard. Jor-El's hologram AI is stunned when the ship detects "the poison" and triggers failsafes in response.

Mistaken Identity
 My Adventures with Superman / int_231e8193
comment
Mistaken Identity: Leslie mistakes Clark, the so-called "flying man", for one of the government goons coming after her for her theft of important military technology. She's baffled when Waller and Slade torture her for information about him. In Episode 5, Heat Wave later mistakes Slade for Superman as well, since Slade's battle suit gives him super speed and strength, with glowing red eyes. Throughout the series, Task Force X repeatedly refers to Superman as "Nemesis Omega", marking him as the principal foe that the group is trying to defeat. But in Episode 9, Nemesis Omega is revealed to have been the first invader of Earth who wiped out a military camp 22 years ago. When Superman demonstrates genuine ignorance and horror at what Nemesis Omega did, the General realizes that it's possible that Superman and Nemesis Omega may not be the same being, as Superman is too young to have participated in that attack if he ages at the same rate as humans.

Adaptational Job Change
 My Adventures with Superman / int_23568a2a
comment
Adaptational Job Change: In most takes of the Superman mythos, Lois is well-established as star reporter of the Daily Planet, with Clark as the new up and comer with his stories about Superman, and Jimmy as the long established intern and/or junior photographer. Here, they're all interns and they have a lot of work to get to the top, while also becoming juniors to their usual colleagues Cat Grant, Ron Troupe, and Steve Lombard. In previous adaptations, Leslie Willis / Livewire starts off as a Shock Jock before gaining her powers. Here, she's already a hardened criminal stealing technology from the US military. Typically, Anthony Ivo is a Mad Scientist known as Professor Ivo. Here, he's a techbro CEO known as Doctor Ivo. Slade Wilson/Deathstroke is turned from a military veteran turned self-employed criminal mercenary in the comics to a black ops agent working under Task Force X here.

Mythology Gag
 My Adventures with Superman / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: As the teaser ends, Clark is once more shown tearing his shirt open to reveal the S of his hero suit underneath. The shirt a young Clark is wearing when his parents show him the spaceship he came in bears a striking resemblance to the t-shirt that Jon Kent is sometimes drawn wearing in his civilian attire, such as in Batman And Superman Battle Of The Super Sons. Jimmy mentions a "psychic starfish from Germany", almost certainly referencing Starro, the first-ever enemy of the Justice League. He also references a conspiracy involving super-intelligent French gorillas, a nod to the then-yet-to-appear Monsieur Mallah. The latter also foreshadows Jimmy getting kidnapped by a giant gorilla at the end of "You Will Believe a Man Can Lie". On the subject of the latter theory, Superman's Pal, Jimmy Olsen also involved Jimmy having a number of encounters with gorillas, including getting romanced by one and turned into one multiple times, because DC Comics during the Silver Age often added gorillas to their covers to sell more books. The Newskid Newspaper has various references to Guardian, a superhero that the Newsboy Legion have connections to via Project Cadmus. While listing off a bunch of possible stories for Lois, Flip mentions "Bogdanov's diner" and a "Mrs. Jurgens". Jon Bogdanov and Dan Jurgens are highly influential creators that have worked on Superman. Lois's favorite coffee shop is Waid's Cafe. Jimmy runs a YouTube channel called "Flamebird". Flamebird is the other half of the Kryptonian legend that inspired Dick Grayson to become Nightwing as well as a recurring superhero identity. Jimmy himself became Flamebird in Kandor in the Earth-One comics. When Jimmy shows off his logo for his channel to Lois and Clark, Lois believes he's referring to Superman, leading to this exchange referencing a famous line in the Superman franchise: When her electric tech starts to malfunction, Leslie’s skin starts to turn blue much like her main comics counterpart. While Superman cleans up the wreckage after his fight with Livewire, a billboard advertising Amazo Tech can be seen, referencing the robotic Justice League villain. It also serves as Foreshadowing, as Anthony Ivo, who created Amazo in the comics, here is the CEO of Amazo Tech and creator of the Parasite armor, doubling as an Early-Bird Cameo. When Clark goes through a Transformation Sequence to don his Superman suit for the first time, it's initially lacking the classic belt and red shorts before Martha adds them, making them resemble the New 52 and DCEU incarnation of the suit. It's worth noting that the lack of red trunks throwing off the color balance that helped emphasize his strongman torso was indeed a bit of an issue, which is why they were eventually brought back. 52 being an Arc Number for the DC multiverse, it turns up here and there: the news program announcing Silver Banshee's prison escape is on Channel 52, Cadmus is also known as Area 52, and Earth-52 is one of the Earths in the multiverse. Among Ivo's shady dealings, Clark mentions that his headquarters was built on land connected with the Gazzo crime family, a Metropolis-based Mafia syndicate featured sparingly in Batman: Dark Victory. The title of episode five, "You Will Believe a Man Can Lie", is a riff on the tagline of Superman: The Movie, "You will believe a man can fly.". One of Jimmy's Flamebird posts centers around the existence of Atlantis and Sub-Diego from Aquaman. A road sign for Blüdhaven (from Nightwing) appears during Superman's first fight with Slade. Among the universes with Clark and Lois shown in "Kiss Kiss Fall in Portal" are the DCAU and the Fleischer theatrical shorts; the latter, which featured the characters in their first ever animated appearances, is hinted to be the very first designated "universe", as its Lois is referred to as "Lois-Prime" and the founder of the League of Lois Lanes. Earth-Prime's Space and Superhero Museum features a Mother Box, Hawkman's mace, a Green Lantern, one of the T-Spheres used by Michael Holt's Mr. Terrific, the Helmet of Fate, a cosmic rod, and a flight ring. Jalana Olsen says the coolest thing she's ever come across is the telepathic horse, a.k.a. Equus Mensa, Hippos Telepathia, and Comet, referencing Comet the Super-Horse from the Supergirl comics. One of the evil Superman that Lois sees is the Justice Lord incarnation. Another resembles Ultraman, his Mirror Universe counterpart, and a third looks like Superboy-Prime. Mr. Mxyzptlk has a very different design in this show compared to other iterations, maintaining the purple color scheme to his wardrobe and having the expected Reality Warper powers but bordering on In Name Only otherwise. However, the item that he needs to access his full power is his traditional bowler hat from the comics, even if it does turn into more of a sci-fi crown/diadem when he actually puts it on. In "Zero Day, Part 1", one of the streamers video taping Superman's fight against Task Force X has the user name Bibbo87, named after recurring Superman support Bibbo Bibbowski. In Vicki Vale's introduction, Lois mentions that she covered a Queen Industries inheritance scandal and helped expose the Falcone Crime Family. Viki later turns out to be an Immoral Reporter, much like her counterpart in Batman: The Telltale Series turned out to be the supervillain Lady Arkham. Alex believes that Superman is "one bad day" away from going rogue and becoming a nigh-unstoppable threat to humanity. In addition to referencing Beware the Superman stories like Injustice: Gods Among Us, the phrasing is a clear sendup to The Killing Joke, where the Joker claims that everyone is "one bad day" away from snapping and becoming a nihilistic murderer like him. One of Jimmy's followers is Lori Lemaris. In the Silver Age, Lori Lemaris was a mermaid from Atlantis and one of Superman's girlfriends. In "Zero Day, Part 2", in their livecast on the Flamebird channel, Jimmy Olsen introduces himself as "Jimmy Olsen, Superman's best friend," and Lois Lane implicitly starts to introduce herself as Superman's girlfriend before stopping and declaring herself a reporter. While they don't appear on screen, the usernames of people viewing Jimmy's livestream imply that it's being watched by Lana Lang, Pete Ross, Lori Lemaris, and Bibbo Bibbowski, all friends of Superman throughout the years in the comics. Waller says that their superiors and Checkmate reviewed the recent incident and made the decision to put her in charge of Task Force X. In the comics, Livewire is explicitly out of consideration for the Suicide Squad due to her powers making it impossible to keep her under control. This also ends up being the case here, as her powers properly awakening allows her to easily destroy her Shock Collar and stage a mass break out from Task Force X's prison, aided in part by Waller sabotaging the camera system. In "Hearts of The Fathers", Brainiac is revealed to be a Kryptonian AI, much like his DCAU counterpart. This isn't the first time we've seen a black Jimmy...or a black Perry White. (Oh, and don't call him "Chief".)

Super-Hearing
 My Adventures with Superman / int_292bd59e
comment
Clark's suppression of the full extent of his powers means he never developed any of his extra-sensory abilities like Super-Hearing or X-Ray Vision, and appears to have the sensory range of an ordinary mortal initially, being unable to see in the dark or hear Perry pulling a Stealth Hi/Bye in the paper morgue. He even needs to use a police scanner to be alerted to impending danger outside his immediate area, unlike other versions who could pinpoint said danger on their own. This means that when he does start developing them, he's both inexperienced with handling the powers and incapacitated from Sensory Overload, whereas other versions have had years to fine-tune them during their childhood. For example, when Clark's Heat Vision starts to "warm up" suddenly, his vision distorts so badly he can't see or react to Lois walking into him in the middle of an open hallway despite his superhuman reflexes.

Right in the centre of the screen is Nemesis Omega with his alien spaceship, referencing the core motivation that drives the opposition towards Superman. However, Nemesis is placed far back enough out of focus to be easily missed, showcasing his overall absence from the series despite his importance. The framing also makes him look similarly-sized to Clark, showcasing their opposing natures.

The Joy of First Flight: After getting over the initial shock of floating off the ground, a young Clark soon takes off into the clouds at the beginning of the first episode. He's laughing and whooping the whole time as he flips, spins, and somersaults through the air. His fun is only soured by the realization that normal people can't do this, resulting in him wondering who and what he is.

Rogues' Gallery Transplant
 My Adventures with Superman / int_2f8c5157
comment
Rogues' Gallery Transplant: The second part of "Adventures of a Normal Man" introduces Deathstroke, nominally a Batman, Teen Titans and Nightwing villain. Heat Wave, normally one of The Flash's rogues, shows up here as a crook who finds herself and her gang getting targeted by Deathstroke. The Brain and Monsieur Mallah, who are classic foes of the Doom Patrol, appear in episode 6. Funnily enough, the two did once briefly appear in a Smallville tie-in comic that also didn't include any mention of the Doom Patrol. The Golden Age Mist/Kyle was the nemesis of the Ted Knight version of Starman. This version is part of Intergang and fought against Superman. Anthony Ivo, who's normally a Justice League of America villain, here pits himself against a solo Superman; indeed, he goes onto become this particular setting's version of the villain Parasite.

As a result, they call themselves the Newskid Legion. Heat Wave is also male in the comics, but is a woman in the show. Ron Troupe is now a woman called Ronnie Troupe. The League of Lois Lanes features a male version of Lois, Lewis, and a female version of Jimmy, Jalana.

Change the Uncomfortable Subject: It's implied that Clark destroying the alarm clock by accident is a semi-regular occurrence. He quickly changes the subject when Jimmy openly wonders why their alarm clock keeps exploding.

Reality Warper
 My Adventures with Superman / int_3b99a9e0
comment
Mr. Mxyzptlk has a very different design in this show compared to other iterations, maintaining the purple color scheme to his wardrobe and having the expected Reality Warper powers but bordering on In Name Only otherwise. However, the item that he needs to access his full power is his traditional bowler hat from the comics, even if it does turn into more of a sci-fi crown/diadem when he actually puts it on.

Clark once ripped the door handle to his room in half in a bit of Power Incontinence with his Super-Strength. When asked what happened, Clark claims that the screws came loose... while holding the pieces of the door handle. It was this event that tipped his roommate Jimmy off to Clark's true identity as an alien and later Superman.

Keeping Secrets Sucks
 My Adventures with Superman / int_4215e3e
comment
Keeping Secrets Sucks: Actually Played With. The series takes a nuanced approach to the concept of keeping secrets involved in Clark's superhero life, ranging from his Secret Identity to important revelations. Whilst Lois has a Berserk Button initially about people lying to her which fuels her reckless attitude and investigative reporting, it's also shown that Clark has good reasons to want to keep his private life confidential and feel "normal" as Clark Kent, and her desire to expose the "hidden agenda" behind Superman's heroics makes Clark uncomfortable with the idea of explaining himself fully, which causes a rocky patch between them when Lois eventually deduces the truth. And then it turns out that Jimmy has been Clark's unknowing Secret Secret-Keeper since before the show started, and was gently pushing him in subtle ways to tell him the truth when he felt comfortable with it, being content to keep the truth hidden despite having ample opportunities to expose him. On the other hand, the strain on personal relationships caused by not trusting somebody with important matters is also highlighted, such as Sam Lane/The General's refusal to tell his daughter Lois the truth about Zero Day and his work in the government keeping him absent for long period of her life making them estranged by the present day, despite his love for her being one of Sam's driving motivations to protect Earth. Even as they learn this Aesop themselves and try to go ahead with a "no more secrets" policy, it's also shown that the heroes struggle with being able to explain uncomfortable but important subjects to others out of fear of hurting them with the truth, like Lois and Jimmy debating over the best time to show Clark the file X they were given with proof about the evil version of Superman out there, because he's not in the best headspace to deal with that revelation right now. They fully acknowledge they're being hypocritical about it, but just aren't certain of the best choice to make.

In the comics, Livewire is explicitly out of consideration for the Suicide Squad due to her powers making it impossible to keep her under control. This also ends up being the case here, as her powers properly awakening allows her to easily destroy her Shock Collar and stage a mass break out from Task Force X's prison, aided in part by Waller sabotaging the camera system.

Adaptational Superpower Change
 My Adventures with Superman / int_538273bd
comment
Adaptational Superpower Change: A lot of the villains that Clark faces are regular humans who get their powers from advanced tech, when in the comics, their powers and the reason they had them were much different. The best example being Leslie Willis / Livewire, who was a metahuman in the comic, but here she gets her electrical powers from Powered Armor. However, her skin starts glowing blue to her usual blue-skinned depiction after her tech is overloaded, and though it fades away once she's subdued, she's then left with permanent blue Volcanic Veins, implying that might have changed. Episode 9 confirms this, giving her the lightning powers without the use of the tech.

Adaptational Attractiveness: In the second episode Slade Wilson (Deathstroke) debuts, looking younger than his usual middle-aged self, clean-shaven and not needing an eyepatch yet. While he is usually still depicted as ruggedly handsome for his age, this version is more akin to a Pretty Boy than a Silver Fox. Mr. Mxyzptlk has gone from an elderly-looking dwarf in a garish orange-and-purple outfit and bowler hat to an elf-like child in puffy robes who looks like he walked off the set of Dragon Ball. He has a relatively deep normal voice instead of the grating one he usually gets in voiced appearances.

In the vast majority of Superman media, Clark learns his origin while he is a teenager. This version first learns about his Muggle Foster Parents finding him in a spaceship when he's a child, though he doesn't try to seek out more information about his origins until he is a young adult. Even then, the information he gets is rather vague thanks to the hologram version of Jor-El speaking only Kryptonese.

The reveal that Jimmy figured out Clark was Superman a long time ago and wanted to respect his friend's privacy puts some of his prior actions in a new light. Despite being a massive Conspiracy Theorist, Jimmy is never shown talking about Superman's identity on his channel among his numerous alien theories. His secret call to Clark during Livewire's attack in the second episode now seems less like an accident or panicked action and more like a deliberate call for help to the one person he knows can stop her.

Adaptation Personality Change: From the original Star-Spangled Comics onward, Scrapper was always the feistiest and most stereotypical "Dead End Kid" of the Newsboy Legion, up for a fight at any time. His counterpart here, Patti, keeps his energetic streak, but can best be described as "feral". The General appears to be much more reasonable than his comic counterpart Wade Eiling, as he orders Deathstroke to stand down and let Superman repair a collapsing bridge with civilians on it, while his comics counterpart would likely have screamed at Slade to take Superman out and damn the collateral damage. Turns out it’s not Eiling, it’s General Sam Lane. The trope still fits since comic Sam could be fairly ruthless with regards to civilian casualties at times.

Deducing the Secret Identity: Clark lampshades how ineffective a disguise it would be to simply change his clothing, posture, demeanor and go around without glasses as a means of avoiding detection, and it's later revealed that those who know him both as Clark Kent and Superman swiftly see through his Secret Identity. Jimmy realized years ago thanks to Clark's frequent bouts of Power Incontinence, and it only takes Lois a few days to realize the same. The main reason Clark's not been discovered is simply because his civilian identity of Clark Kent is under everybody's radar, and nobody even realizes he has a civilian life.

Establishing Character Moment: In the A Minor Kidroduction of the first episode, Clark's first instinct when seeing a car spinning out of control is to run after it to try to help, revealing his Chronic Hero Syndrome and generally good nature. After discovering his powers and having a blast with them, he's brought down to earth by the sobering realization that humans can't do what he just did, leading him to ask "Who am I?" The question of his identity haunts Clark throughout the rest of the premiere episodes.

Lois perks up instantly when her alarm goes off, though she has to punch it a few times before it turns off. She also gives herself a pep talk to "be extraordinary" and to establish herself as a "real reporter" with Perry White. This highlights Lois being a Plucky Girl and a Determinator.

Where the Hell Is Springfield?
 My Adventures with Superman / int_8504b817
comment
Where the Hell Is Springfield?: A sign in the first episode suggests that Metropolis should be somewhere west of the Mississippi river, being located 198 miles from the Kent farm, which is in Kansas. But the city appears to be on the coast - this is most visible in background shots to Episode 8, which show a a Manhattan-style island as the city's core, and an ocean horizon behind the airborne Silver Banshee.

Rule of Symbolism
 My Adventures with Superman / int_916c72b3
comment
Rule of Symbolism: Martha Kent looks over Clark's newly fashioned costume in "Adventures of a Normal Man" and muses that it's good, but it needs "something more", before adding the traditional belt and shorts herself. With the DCEU's shortless Superman suit being a topic of ambivalence for some time among fans, it effectively serves as the show itself saying it doesn't mind seeming a little corny if it's in service of a more classical take on the character.

Hypocrisy Nod
 My Adventures with Superman / int_9230c618
comment
On the other hand, the strain on personal relationships caused by not trusting somebody with important matters is also highlighted, such as Sam Lane/The General's refusal to tell his daughter Lois the truth about Zero Day and his work in the government keeping him absent for long period of her life making them estranged by the present day, despite his love for her being one of Sam's driving motivations to protect Earth. Even as they learn this Aesop themselves and try to go ahead with a "no more secrets" policy, it's also shown that the heroes struggle with being able to explain uncomfortable but important subjects to others out of fear of hurting them with the truth, like Lois and Jimmy debating over the best time to show Clark the file X they were given with proof about the evil version of Superman out there, because he's not in the best headspace to deal with that revelation right now. They fully acknowledge they're being hypocritical about it, but just aren't certain of the best choice to make.

Lovable Jock: Steve Lombard straddles the line between this and Jerk Jock. He's an arrogant, obnoxious dude bro who nobody at the Planet likes; but it's revealed in episode 5 that his attitude is a result of his isolation, not the cause. He admits that when he was a young reporter all the friends he came in with eventually moved on and away from him, leaving him alone, and so he decided to embrace his role as a "lone wolf". When he recognizes that Jimmy is becoming the third wheel in his group with Lois and Clark, he appoints himself the younger man's mentor and tries to take Jimmy under his wing, and with a surprising degree of empathy tells Jimmy that the others don't see him as an equal and will likely outgrow him soon. Even when proven wrong he retains his soft spot for Jimmy, and he's the first to congratulate him when the trio gets promoted to reporters.

Alex believes that Superman is "one bad day" away from going rogue and becoming a nigh-unstoppable threat to humanity. In addition to referencing Beware the Superman stories like Injustice: Gods Among Us, the phrasing is a clear sendup to The Killing Joke, where the Joker claims that everyone is "one bad day" away from snapping and becoming a nihilistic murderer like him.

Mood Whiplash: After reveling in his Super-Speed and ability to fly at the beginning of the first episode, a young Clark comes to the realization that human beings can't do these things. His joy is quickly replaced with sobering trepidation as he wonders who and what he really is. As if to underscore the point, the soaring orchestra and energetic guitar that accompanied Clark's ascent above the clouds is replaced with a low, somber horn as he's figuratively brought down to earth.

You Don't Look Like You
 My Adventures with Superman / int_a4e3759e
comment
You Don't Look Like You: Quite a few actually, with a number of characters (particularly villains) undergoing radical redesigns. Slade Wilson/Deathstroke, instead of a Silver Fox with short, gray hair and a beard missing one eye, is a much younger man with spiky hair that's tied back in a ponytail, with no facial hair at all, and possessing both eyes, though he does later lose one in battle against Livewire. Instead of a purple skinned humanoid, Parasite is a depicted as an otherwise regular man wearing a purple battlesuit, that grows and evolves in relation to the power it absorbs, to the point when it absorbs enough, it turns into a repto-insectoid, Kaiju-like monster. After losing his initial fight to Superman, his body becomes much more emaciated, and gets purple veins, and one eye glowing purple, possibly as a Shout-Out to his original design. Mister Myxlplyx is normally depicted as a small, elderly man wearing a purple suit and top hat. In this, he’s a blue-skinned, youthful, fairy like being, dressed in more fantastical clothing. Even his distinct top hat, once he puts it on, shifts its appearance to a more fantastical-style crown. In the end, we see Brainiac, where instead of being a green-skinned, alien cyborg, he’s an android with a triangular head, Tron Lines, and a flowing cape. Really, the only thing he has in common with his original design, is the three dots on his forehead.

Dramatic Irony: The main trio is tasked to find and capture proof of Superman to keep their jobs, with Lois and Jimmy unaware that Superman is right next to them and is very nervous about being found out. Jimmy's conspiracy theories about psychic starfish and super-intelligent gorillas sound outlandish to Clark and Lois, but all are very real things in the DC Comics universe. In addition, despite Jimmy being a Conspiracy Theorist, he can't see that his best friend and roommate is incredibly powerful (though it's subverted when it's revealed he knew all along).

Sheathe Your Sword: Dr. Ivo's Parasite armor feeds off any energy thrown at it, meaning that Superman's attempts to fight back only make it stronger. After realizing this, Superman chooses to simply dodge all of Ivo's attacks, letting the Powered Armor slowly run out of energy on its own after Lois and Jimmy cut its external power source. Ivo, an even less experienced fighter than him, can only throw clumsy swings and charge attacks that drain the armor of power until it starts draining the life out of Ivo himself.

Ungrateful Townsfolk: Double Subverted. Superman becomes a beloved hero in Metropolis and the talk of the city as he helps everyone every single day. People stop to take photos with him and the police thank him over the radio. But in "Zero Day, Part 1", the townsfolk instantly start turning on him and calling him a menace after he makes some destructive mistakes and collapses from Sensory Overload while chasing Mist. No one save for Lois and Jimmy questions Vicki Vale's smear article against him either, even after she was only able to find a single, incredibly biased source willing to speak badly about him. It's then triple subverted when Ivo is rampaging through Metropolis and Superman is the only one able to stop him. Lois uses Jimmy's Flamebird account to issue a broadcast to all of Metropolis reminding them of the good Superman has done and begging for them to turn off the power and starve Parasite of energy. Metropolis does so while cheering Superman on from what few screens are left on, giving Superman the edge he needs to take Ivo down.

In the far background is Mister Mxyzptlk with Glowing Eyes of Doom, looming similarly to the shadow/the General. This foreshadows that his claims of Adaptational Heroism to Clark are complete bunk, as well as how his one-off appearance continues to have a knock-on effect throughout the following episodes, with the File X he gives to Lois showing her proof that there are valid reasons to fear a Superman, putting a strain on her attempts to defend Superman from his detractors as well as a shard of pure Kryptonite, which seems to be otherwise absent from this Clark's home dimension.

Adaptational Timespan Change: In the vast majority of Superman media, Clark learns his origin while he is a teenager. This version first learns about his Muggle Foster Parents finding him in a spaceship when he's a child, though he doesn't try to seek out more information about his origins until he is a young adult. Even then, the information he gets is rather vague thanks to the hologram version of Jor-El speaking only Kryptonese. The romantic relationship between Clark and Lois. Usually the two don't enter in a relationship until years after working together in the Daily Planet. In the show, the two more or less fell in love at first sight and became a couple pretty quickly soon after.

Shout-Out
 My Adventures with Superman / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: According to producer Jake Wyatt, Jor-El's beard and Eyepatch of Power are directly inspired by Big Boss. The stolen robots used by Livewire resemble an EVA Unit. From storyboard notes, Superman’s Transformation Sequence is at least partially inspired by the Pretty Cure franchise, with Cure Mermaid from Go! Princess Pretty Cure as one of the direct influences. Furthering the EVA references, the core of the freezing device in episode 3 when it goes haywire briefly resembles Rebuild Ramiel. The "Small Mutant Army" created by Mallah and the Brain are very similar to the Gunmen/Ganmen from Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann some even having multiple sets of arms like Enkidu. The scene where Clark unlocks his super speed fully and saves Lois from a giant robot is almost shot for shot the same as the scene in My Hero Academia where Izuku uses One For All for the first time saving Ochaco from a giant robot during the U.A. Entrance Exam. Jake Wyatt confirmed on Twitter that the show's take on Lois is directly inspired by Meryl Stryfe from Trigun. The episode title "Kiss Kiss Fall in Portal" is a spoof on the opening lyrics of "Sakura Kiss", the opening theme of Ouran High School Host Club. The locker at the League of Lois Lanes' base is full of shoutouts, including the Dragon Slayer from Berserk, a skyhook from Bioshock Infinite, the Noisy Cricket from Men in Black, and the Wabbajack from The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Task Force X believes that Superman's alturism is an act and that he's a scout for an impending Alien Invasion. They would be absolutely right if they were talking about Omni-Man. Nemesis Omega's Red-and-White colour scheme (with some black accents) bears some resemblance to Omni-Man's design and the Kryptonians' white-black outfits are similarly designed to the Viltrumites' uniform body suits. In "Zero Day, Part 1", one of the Daily Planet's employees looks like Trent Crimm from Ted Lasso. "Zero Day, Part 2" practically has a Whole-Plot Reference to The Iron Giant, appropriately enough, as the titular character was in part inspired to a greater example by the comics of Superman that Hogarth read to him. Learning the truth of Zero Day and that the Kryptonain race is apparently a villainous species of conquerors has Clark come to the conclusion that his varied powers and immense might are because he's a Living Weapon sent to destroy Earth for his species, with an accident that occurred during Zero Day preventing him learning about his "mission" and growing up as a normal child, much like the Giant's crash-landing gave him Laser-Guided Amnesia that allowed him to develop a conscience and choose to be something more than he was created for. Lois likewise helps snap Clark out of this negative mindset and by the episode's end, Clark chooses to embrace the role of Superman: protector of Earth regardless of what his (perceived) origins are. The Kaiju sized Parasite suit turning black and being left as an immobile statue like form in the middle of the city in "Zero Day, Part 2" seems to be a nod to the similar fate of the titular character in Shin Godzilla.

Freudian Excuse
 My Adventures with Superman / int_c868a42a
comment
Looming over the assembled villains is a red-eyed shadow denoted by the shape of his army cap to be The General/Sam Lane referencing how his well-intentioned actions in weaponising the Kryptonian technology were ultimately the reason why so many of Superman's villains became above-average threats for him to face. Him being an unseen and menacing shadow references how we go most of the series without learning much about him beyond his antagonism towards Superman, and conversely, how managing to understand his Freudian Excuse through an interrogation with Superman sees him step back from being Superman's main opposition after considering that he might not be the enemy he thinks he is.

Taken During the Ending: In Season 1 "You Will Believe a Man Can Lie", because Clark and Lois had some issues to deal with, they completely forgot to meet up with Jimmy for his camping trip. After four hours of waiting for Clark and Lois to show up, Jimmy decides to go on the trip alone, but he soon gets kidnapped by a gorilla in the woods. At the end of "Zero Day, Part 1", Superman is kidnapped by Task Force X after beating beaten and electrocuted unconscious by the organization's Boxed Crooks.

Spoiler Opening
 My Adventures with Superman / int_cd83fa5b
comment
Spoiler Opening: The opening sequence, first released on YouTube but first broadcast starting with the second episode (after the 2-part premiere), shows a bunch of villains before their proper introductions in the storyline, though only for a few seconds. Examples include Slade Wilson/Deathstroke (albeit he's not immediately recognisable in his Powered Armour), and Mr. Mxyzptlk with Glowing Eyes of Doom spoiling that his claims to Clark about being an inter-dimensional peacekeeper on introduction are complete bunk. An inversion occurs with Mist, who is absent despite the other members of Intergang being shown, helping to support his claims of evading Task Force X in "Zero Day, Part 1" before it's revealed that he's actually The Bait luring Superman into an ambush. Most importantly, Nemesis Omega, a being referred to throughout the series is shown prominently in the middle of the screen along with his spaceship, but far back enough to be out of focus despite his overarching influence on the plot. The framing also makes him look similarly-sized to Clark as well, highlighting their opposing roles.

Cassandra Truth: In episode three Superman finally agrees to take an interview with Lois. It's very short because he admits to her that he barely knows anything about his origins, how his powers work or what he is and he's still figuring all that out. When Clark talks to her right after she confidently calls Superman a liar. Superman repeatedly tells others that he just wants to help others because he can. But everyone from Lois to Task Force X believes that he must have an ulterior motive instead of being exactly what he claims to be.

Task Force X is hostile towards Superman for this exact reason, labeling him "Nemesis Omega" and believing that he and his race are a threat towards the safety of Earth, even if their first actual fight against Superman has them surprised that he's not as strong as their analysis predicted. It's hinted that "Zero Day" (which visions of Clark's when interacting with Kryptonian tech indicate involved rampaging mechs on the day Clark fell to Earth) is the primary reason they assume he's secretly hostile, and putting on an act as a Nice Guy.

 My Adventures with Superman / int_d80a8085
comment
Younger and Hipper: Many characters have received an Age Lift that puts them as young adults rather than their comic counterparts being in their late 30's or such. In particular, the main trio are new interns at the Daily Planet, and Slade Wilson has been de-aged from a grizzled veteran in his 50s to a Pretty Boy who looks to be about 30 at best. Clark's age in particular becomes a plot point, as when the General is interrogating him in "Zero Day, Part 2", he notices Clark's statement about "growing up on Earth" and on seeing his horrified reaction to the events of Zero Day, starts to reconsider if he really is the "Nemesis Omega" figure that slaughtered his entire squad. The general notes that if Clark's species actually ages similar to humanity (which is indeed the case) he'd have been too young to participate in it 22 years ago, showing that Task Force X believed Older Than They Look was in play with Superman.

 My Adventures with Superman / int_e0e8cce6
comment
Silly Rabbit, Idealism Is for Kids!: Underneath the shiny, colorful exterior of the show, there's a pervasive cynicism among the cast. Lois, Vicki Vale, and Task Force X all believe that it's impossible for Superman to want to help others just because he wants to. Lois and Vicki repeatedly try to dig up dirt on Superman to prove their suspicions right, while Task Force X is convinced that Superman's altruism is just an act and that he's scouting for an Alien Invasion. The show itself seems to be highlighting how difficult it would be for the overarching themes behind Superman's character to be taken seriously in the modern day.

comment
Family-Friendly Firearms: Every gun on the show is some sort of futuristic laser. Anything less really wouldn't pose much of a threat to Clark, even with his lesser showing compared to other versions of Superman. It's averted in episode 9, with the military wielding actual firearms against the Zero Day invasion in the flashback. It does absolutely nothing to the Mecha-Mooks, let alone Nemesis Omega itself, explaining why lasers and similar technology have become more widespread by the present day. The American Government is deeply concerned about a second invasion, and don't want their military to be the only ones capable of defending themselves from a possible alien threat across the entire country.

Team Member in the Adaptation: Leslie Willis/Livewire is a member of a group of criminal mercenaries.

Silver Banshee and Mist are both portrayed as members of Intergang here, despite having never been members of the team in the comics. Heat Wave is normally a member of the Rogues, but here appears without them.

Actually Played With. The series takes a nuanced approach to the concept of keeping secrets involved in Clark's superhero life, ranging from his Secret Identity to important revelations. Whilst Lois has a Berserk Button initially about people lying to her which fuels her reckless attitude and investigative reporting, it's also shown that Clark has good reasons to want to keep his private life confidential and feel "normal" as Clark Kent, and her desire to expose the "hidden agenda" behind Superman's heroics makes Clark uncomfortable with the idea of explaining himself fully, which causes a rocky patch between them when Lois eventually deduces the truth. And then it turns out that Jimmy has been Clark's unknowing Secret Secret-Keeper since before the show started, and was gently pushing him in subtle ways to tell him the truth when he felt comfortable with it, being content to keep the truth hidden despite having ample opportunities to expose him.

In the A Minor Kidroduction of the first episode, Clark's first instinct when seeing a car spinning out of control is to run after it to try to help, revealing his Chronic Hero Syndrome and generally good nature. After discovering his powers and having a blast with them, he's brought down to earth by the sobering realization that humans can't do what he just did, leading him to ask "Who am I?" The question of his identity haunts Clark throughout the rest of the premiere episodes.
