Superman: The Animated Series (or The New Superman Adventures in its second season) is an animated television series than ran from 1996 to 2000 on Kids' WB!. After Batman: The Animated Series proved to be an enormous success, Bruce Timm and Paul Dini turned their attention to DC Comics's other major hero: Superman. The new series would use the same "back to basics" approach to storyline and art stylings, giving the Superman mythos the same timeless feel that they brought to the Batman mythos.Kal-El, Last of His Kind, is sent away from the dying planet Krypton and lands on Earth, where thanks to the bright yellow sun he develops famous abilities far greater than a normal human. He grows up in Smallville, Kansas, where he was found and raised as a human ("Clark") by Jonathan and Martha Kent, who instill within him a powerful sense of right and wrong. As an adult he defends the city of Metropolis as an honest, virtuous hero christened "Superman" by its inhabitants. Not like that nut in Gotham City.Since Superman's A-list Rogues Gallery is smaller than Batman's, the creators chose to largely dispense with the stand-alone Monster of the Week format of the previous series, instead focusing a more continuity-heavy story of intersecting plotlines. In this series, there are four concurrent Myth Arcs: The first arc of the series concerns Lex Luthor, the most powerful man in Metropolis before Superman's arrival. The Corrupt Corporate Executive version of the character from the Post-Crisis DC Universe, he is ever the Magnificent Bastard. With heavy doses of the Villain with Good Publicity, he immediately sees the man flying around righting wrongs as a threat and he begins a number of plots to either destroy Superman or get him on his side. These attempts include utilizing an unusual rock from space that seems to give Superman a hard time, cloning Superman (resulting in a creature that could only be described as "Bizarro") and recreating a foreign mercenary as an android assassin... All in the first half of the series.invoked The second arc concerns the character of Brainiac. His origin was rewritten for the series, tying his origin far more closely with that of Superman. In this adaptation, he is the computer system responsible for the upkeep of the entire planet of Krypton and he darn well knows in the pilot episode that the planet is doomed. However, he does not want the people to know because he is too busy making provisions to save himself. After the planet explodes he becomes an Omnicidal Planet Looter, determined to repeat Krypton's fate ad infinitum: collect all the data in the universe, then destroy the originals to keep his collected info from becoming obsolete. His quest brings him into conflict with Superman a number of times—though, in practice, most of his schemes just involve him trying to rebuild himself after the last time Superman destroyed him. Again, and again, and again... The third arc brought in the characters from Jack Kirby's New Gods. The intergalactic tyrant Darkseid (taking the role of the Big Bad for the overall series) sets his sights on Earth, and he wants Superman's help in conquering it. Darkseid is not the type to take "no" for an answer. This arc is usually regarded as the best of the series, as the drama and action were at its peak and the individual episodes collectively formed more of an ongoing story. This arc also brought in Supergirl. The fourth one has Superman coming in contact with other heroes of the DC Universe who would later become his colleagues in Justice League. These episodes were largely standalone but in the course of the series, Superman met The Flash, Green Lantern, Doctor Fate, and Aquaman. Most important of all — "World's Finest", the three-part episode that crossed over into Batman: The Animated Series and finally established the DC Animated Universe as a Shared Universe. Superman and Batman would have other adventures while Supergirl would appear in The New Batman Adventures and Superman would also make an appearance in Batman Beyond which deals with Bruce's Legacy Character, and which was also production-wise the first appearance of the Justice League in the DCAU.All of these arcs were later picked up and merged in the Sequel Series Justice League.Standalone episodes were, of course, not unknown. An intergalactic bounty hunter named Lobo showed up to collect a Kryptonian pelt. Toyman was reimagined as a thoroughly creepy Psychopathic Manchild. A new female villain named Livewire was introduced and, while not as popular as Batman: The Animated Series's Harley Quinn, similarly made the jump to the main DC Universe. An imp from another dimension named Mr. Mxyzptlk showed up twice to give Superman fits. A pair of Kryptonian criminals were paroled from their extradimensional prison, only to wreak havoc on Earth. And, of course, Batman came to town, hot on the Joker's trail after the latter had gotten his hands on a massive chunk of Kryptonite. The more sci-fi feel of the show allowed DC characters that would have seemed out of place on Batman: TAS (like The Flash, the Green Lanterns, and Doctor Fate) to show up.As befitting a DC Animated Universe installment, the voice work is absolutely top notch. Tim Daly plays both halves of the title character with authority and distinction. Dana Delany gives us an utterly no-nonsense Lois Lane who absolutely will not tolerate babysitting the newcomer from Kansas, and is skeptical about the man in the red cape flying around doing good deeds. Ultimately, Clancy Brown is the perfect Lex Luthor, smooth and cruel, slimy and utterly charming at the same time.The series would be followed by Justice League and Justice League Unlimited.A made for DVD movie was also made based on the series' style: Superman: Brainiac Attacks. It is not canon to the DCAU. The series also gave stillbirth to the N64 video game The New Superman Aventures [sic]. Titus Software, the company that made the game, also released Superman, a Game Boy game also based on the series, two years prior. It also had a comic book series, The Superman Adventures and may have inspired the DC Superheroes books based on the character. Interestingly, Superman would not get another animated series focused mainly on him for 23 years after STAS’s conclusion, when My Adventures with Superman released on [adult swim] on July 6, 2023.

Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: It might not have reached the point of actual "love" just yet, but Lois's teary-eyed confession to Superman about her feelings towards his alter-ego Clark Kent (who at the time was believed to be dead) in the episode "The Late Mr. Kent" reveals that she is starting to think about him as more than just competition from a small town in Kansas. Word of God said they wrote Lois as being attracted to Clark but in denial.

No Celebrities Were Harmed: Fictional character version - Dan Turpin's funeral is attended by Jack Kirby characters such as the Fantastic Four in their civilian identities; sadly, later versions of the episode remove these characters to avoid lawsuits.

Phantom Zone: The Phantom Zone appears numerous times throughout the series. Jor-El originally planned to use the zone to save all life on Krypton, as they would place the population of the planet into the zone and, using the ship he had built, fly to a new home and retrieve the people. Though the Kryptonian government refused this plan, Jor-El's ship still had a Phantom Zone projector which Superman would use on Earth to parole Kryptonian criminals who had served their sentence, and also to help human research progress in the area of inter-dimensional travel and observation.

comment
Does This Remind You of Anything?: In "Double Dose", Livewire makes it pretty clear she likes to associate her powers with her... femininity. Which adds a whole rape subtext to Parasite attempting to forcibly take them from her. It goes way into creepy territory when he tells her "You've said no to me for the last time."

Villain Team-Up
 Superman: The Animated Series / int_169d22e6
comment
Villain Team-Up: Several examples. Livewire/Parasite, which laced their partnership with a lot of sexual innuendo and implied rape. Mr. Mxyzptlk/Bizarro, a team up that the creative team later came to regret, as they felt it did not quite live up to previous independent episodes with each character. Darkseid/Mannheim, but that was more lopsided than the human partner would have liked (though Mannheim was oblivious to the fact that he was just a pawn.) Lex Luthor/Joker in "World's Finest," the first crossover with Batman and the official formation of the DC Animated Universe.

Make Sure He's Dead: When Bruce Wayne is in Metropolis and gets forced out a window by Joker's gang's gunfire, Joker says to make sure he's "street pizza," because until he saw the body, he couldn't be sure that Superman hadn't saved him. He was right; Bruce had survived. Though when Bruce survived the next attack, Joker just laughed it off and left without killing him.

Not-So-Harmless Villain: In "World's Finest", when The Joker arrives in Metropolis, the mob, Luthor, and Superman all assume that he must be, at best, a minor irritant, just a powerless whackjob in a weird suit. By the end of the three-part series, he has taken over the Metropolis mob, almost blown up half the city, and nearly killed both Luthor and Superman. When Batman shows up, it's pretty clear that Superman and Luthor don't take him seriously either. At first.

Fortunately, the same episode provides a lighter example in Jimmy Olsen. His loyalty to Superman never wavers, not even after Darkseid's brainwashing him has made him a pariah to most of the planet. Although (understandably) reluctant to approach the Brainwashed and Crazy Superman, when the hero returned to normal, Jimmy was one of his only friends. When asked for his opinion by a news crew, he vehemently retorts, "Superman's saved the world a million times. We owe him another chance!"

Bridal Carry: True to general form, Superman's default carrying position for people he likes is in his arms, supported under the shoulders and knees. "Feeding Time": Superman lifts Jimmy under the knees and back when he's evacuating him before dealing with Parasite. "Brave New Metropolis": Superman carries Lois princess-style as he flies away from the lab after having been called to rescue her when she got pulled into an alternate dimension. "Monkey Fun": Superman catches Jimmy in midair after he slips and falls from the roof trying to get away from Titano. The next shot shows him carrying his younger coworker in his arms as he goes to survey the damage.

Underestimating Badassery: One of the primary themes of the "World's Finest" crossover is that both Superman and Luthor consider Batman to be a crazy guy with no powers and the Joker a wacko clown who aren't worth their time and energy. By the end, Batman has saved Superman's life and scared the crap out of Luthor (something even Superman never managed) by breaking into his penthouse, and the Joker comes closer to killing Superman than just about any other previous villain while also backstabbing Luthor and nearly destroying Metropolis.

Ambiguously Brown: Lex Luthor. Fan speculation often mistook him for a light-skinned African-American, but Word of God says he is Greek and his appearance was based on Telly Savalas, a Greek-American actor. He was given a lighter skin tone in Justice League, probably to rectify confusion like this. Clark Kent/Superman had the same skin tone, which the creators refer to as a "reddish" tone in DVD audio commentary, but no fan ever confuses his intended color. The misconception was also probably partially based on the fact that, in addition to a darker skin tone, Lex had noticeably fuller lips than the other white characters.

Kryptonite Factor
 Superman: The Animated Series / int_22ecc839
comment
Kryptonite Factor: Kryptonite will remove Superman's powers while causing great pain, and eventually death after lengthy exposure. The solar radiation of a red sun will likewise remove his powers, but without additional consequences. Livewire has an absolutely crippling weakness to water. A tiny touch will cause her powers to flare up painfully, and being fully drenched will cause her to go catatonic. Parasite gains the abilities of those he copies, but also gains their weaknesses. Throughout his three appearances, he suffers the effect of both of the aforementioned Achilles Heels, both times with enough damage to make him go catatonic and conveniently lose his memory of Superman's identity.

For Science!: Weather Wizard accuses his brother of being willfully blind and naive when he was building the weather control machine, as he always knew that the Wizard planned to use it for crime and did not care, only interested in the science. His brother, however, never believed he would really go this far, and abandons the machine once its threat becomes clear.

Unwanted Assistance: When his clone's DNA begins to break down, Bizarro decides to prove to the world that he is Superman by going out and committing heroic deeds. This includes protecting a building that was under attack (that was being demolished) and fixing a broken bridge (that was opening to allow a ship to pass beneath it).

Lois Lane is the traditional damsel, frequently being rescued by Superman, but the trope is discussed in the episode "Target." Despite a madman consistently attempting to murder her she remains defiant, continuing her own investigation against the advice of others. Also gets a massive Lampshade Hanging at the start of "Prototype", when Luthor comments that with her tendency towards this trope she might appreciate a few more rescuers.

Limited Wardrobe: Except for two scenes, one where he is undercover with Lois Lane and once when he is attending a funeral, Jimmy Olsen wears the exact same outfit for literally every scene in the entire series. Lois actually has a very varied wardrobe of different styles of clothing (Shorts, skirts, dresses, gowns, etc.) and Clark mixed his wardrobe up on occasion. It is mentioned on the commentary of "The World's Finest" that the creators tried very hard at averting this trope, but were limited by budget constraints, so instead of getting different outfits they would just change the color of their regular clothes to give them several different combinations.

Never Be a Hero

comment
Never Be a Hero: As Supergirl has all the powers of Superman, and a love for the big city, yet Superman still forces her to live her life on the Smallville farm under a secret identity (even though such an identity is even MORE useless for her). There was perhaps some justification for Superman getting her to sit things out for a while- she wasn't nearly as powerful as him, and came uncomfortably close to getting herself killed on multiple occasions. After she had gotten a bit more acclimated to her powers and Earth in general, she did get into the game in Justice League Unlimited, and with her cousin's full support.

Planetary Relocation: In "Little Girl Lost: Part 1", when Superman goes to the remnants of Krypton, he detects a distress signal from a nearby planet called Argo. When he gets there, discovers he finds a message from a scientist named Kala In-Ze pleading for help and explains that the explosion that destroyed Krypton devastated Argo's surface and pushed the planet out of orbit, away from their sun. Far from their sun, Argo's people slowly froze to death in the ensuing ice age, until only she and her family remained. Superman finds that the stasis chambers malfunctioned, with the exception of one, which contained Kara, aka: Supergirl.

comment
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Superman learns, to his chagrin, what happens when he tries to stop a crashing passenger jet by grabbing it by the tail; People born after the age of payphones probably wouldn't understand, but the reason for the popular image of Clark Kent dashing to the nearest phone booth to change into his costume (and the reason it was a good excuse for Clark to disappear) was because, back in the day, any reporter witnessing a crisis would be expected to find the nearest phone immediately so their newspaper could get to work on the story before they were scooped by another news outlet. The thing is, this series aired in the '90s, so the one time Clark tries to use "gotta find the nearest phone" as an excuse to leave, Lois just pulls out a cell phone. Also shown when a villain puts Superman under red sun radiation and picks a fistfight with him. Yes, Superman loses his powers under a red sun. But even without powers he's built like Schwarzenegger and more than capable of beating the snot out of the villain anyway.

Bittersweet Ending: To the Superman: TAS within the continuity as a whole. Superman repels Darkseid's invasion, but due to the time he was brainwashed combined with Luthor's lies about him, nearly everyone but his closest friends hates him. It’s not until Justice League that he begins to regain people's trust.

Damsel in Distress
 Superman: The Animated Series / int_4160410d
comment
Damsel in Distress: Lois Lane is the traditional damsel, frequently being rescued by Superman, but the trope is discussed in the episode "Target." Despite a madman consistently attempting to murder her she remains defiant, continuing her own investigation against the advice of others. Also gets a massive Lampshade Hanging at the start of "Prototype", when Luthor comments that with her tendency towards this trope she might appreciate a few more rescuers. It happens so often, that it kind of works in her favor. During "World's Finest" Lois is on Airforce One when it's hijacked and she tries to send out a distress call, but is caught.

A.I. Is a Crapshoot
 Superman: The Animated Series / int_420c50b7
comment
In this version, the failure to evacuate Krypton is due to Brainiac's deliberate suppression of Jor-El's theories, making the comic-book Coluan robot into a Kryptonian example of A.I. Is a Crapshoot. As such, Brainiac is responsible for Superman's status as (initially) the Last of His Kind. Brainiac goes on to be one of the series' Big Bads alongside Lex Luthor and Darkseid.

Early Installment Character-Design Difference
 Superman: The Animated Series / int_4348c929
comment
Early Installment Character-Design Difference: The Flash as depicted in "Speed Demons" looks slightly different from how he'd be depicted in Justice League, with the outline of the circle portion of his chest insignia being colored black instead of yellow, the yellow ornaments on his temples being shaped more like wings than lightning bolts and his chin being less narrow. Brainiac 5 and Bouncing Boy's cameos in "New Kids in Town" differ considerably from how they would later appear in the Justice League Unlimited episode "New Kids in Town". Brainiac 5 has a mullet, his eyes are completely white, his belt is of a different design and includes a buckle shaped like the Legion of Super-Heroes insignia, plus he lacks his ancestor the original Brainiac's iconic diodes on his forehead while having a chest insignia resembling them. Bouncing Boy, meanwhile, wears a gloved costume colored light blue and white that is more akin to the Silver Age aesthetic of the Legionnaires' uniforms and has a body that is noticeably more spherical. Aquaman's debut in "A Fish Story" sports his classic clean-shaven, short-haired look wearing an orange and green costume, while his Justice League appearances take more after his long-haired, bearded and shirtless depiction from the 1990s.

Downer Ending: As the series ends in “Legacy�, Superman has finally defeated Darkseid, free of the brainwashing that forced him to lead an invasion of Earth, and he tosses Darkseid to the masses of Apokolips for judgment, freeing the planet after eons of slavery. However, instead of dethroning their oppressor the people of Apokolips raise Darkseid to their shoulders and carry him off to heal, begging for his recovery. As they leave, Darkseid speaks one final line to Superman: "I am many things Kal-El, but here, I am God." Unable to defeat Darkseid, even after physically crushing him, Superman returns to Earth where he has lost the trust of humanity and will be feared and hated for years to come. At least he has Lois and Jimmy's support and the issue of the public's trust of him is resolved later in Justice League.

Motive Decay: Metallo. His origin episode that transformed him from John Corben into Metallo ended with his vendetta focused on Superman, but also on Luthor for transferring his mind into the strong-but-numb Metallo body. However, by his second appearance the "vengeance against Luthor" angle has been dropped entirely and in his fourth appearance he even gets a girlfriend, despite the fact that his inability to feel anything at all when kissing a woman was one of the things that originally drove him nuts. His original motive does return in the video game Superman: Shadow of Apokolips, which debuted in 2002. Recruited by a disguised Luthor and told to destroy Superman, Metallo demurs and goes after Luthor himself.

The writers were generally quite good about coming up with new ways to challenge him, ranging from kryptonite, to red sun rays, to messing with his head and/or senses, attacking him with things his powers don't cover, to villains who were simply more powerful than him. The producers mentioned in behind the scenes interviews that it was a matter of pride for them to have a good variety of villains on the show without every villain having kryptonite bullets.

Fantastic Racism: Most of Superman's enemies hate him for personal and direct reasons, but General Hardcastle dislikes and distrusts him solely because he is an alien, with a history and motivation that can not be trusted.

Eviler than Thou
 Superman: The Animated Series / int_5963b221
comment
Eviler than Thou: When The Joker goes to Metropolis, Lex Luthor at first considers him beneath his notice due to his inability to destroy his "mere mortal in a Halloween costume". Eventually, they strike up a partnership and the entire time, Lex believes that he's got the Joker's strings. After the Joker fails to kill Superman (though he came close), Lex decides to betray the Joker. The Joker anticipates this and turns it right back on him, taking Lex prisoner and stealing a bomber he was building, with the intent to kill Lex and level all of the buildings he built in Metropolis (half of the city). He's only stopped by the timely intervention of Batman and Superman.

 Superman: The Animated Series / int_59907e4f
comment
Police Are Useless: Sometimes. The SCU tend to be seriously outmatched by supervillains, and the big attempt to make them effective again relied on Lexcorp technology that didn't work out. However, the cops are pretty helpful against ordinary crooks. And then they prove themselves to be a vital ally during the invasion from Apokolips.

comment
While the series may have had the cases of Adaptation Distillation, Adaptational Origin Connection, Adaptational Wimp, Composite Character, and Canon Foreigner, Superman: The Animated Series is the most faithful (and influential) adaptation of the DC Comics series as well as Superman (along with his mythos, supporting characters, allies, rogue gallery, etc) in general in comparison to all of the Superman adaptations that have been created both before and after the show (particularly the live action ones).

Kangaroo Court

Kangaroo Court: This was Zig-Zagged with Mr. Mxyzptlk's trial in his second appearance, where he was charged with "meddling with an underevolved species", violating interdimensional travel laws, and breaking his word (which is considered a very serious crime in his dimension, apparently). The trial consisted simply of the three judges reading the accusations, scolding him, and finding him guilty (and when his wife Gsptlsnz tried to defend him by arguing "extenuating circumstances", they responded by turning her into a tree - clearly they aren't fond of lawyers). Of course, Mxyzptlk was obviously guilty of these charges, and the sentence he received could be viewed as lenient, considering all the trouble he caused. (Superman compared it to "three months of community service", although it Mxy probably didn't like it very much.)

Freeze-Frame Bonus: In the episode “Mxyzpixilatedâ€�, Jimmy hands Clark a comic strip page featuring the titular Mr. Mxyzptlk. There are other comics on the page, Dini The Meany (parodying Calvin and Hobbes and Dennis the Menace (US)), Gleen (parodying Peanuts), Dan Danger (parodying Dick Tracy) and Zub Street (Parodying Momma). The Mxyzptlk strip itself is by Siegel and Shuster, the creators of Superman. Check out the screengrab!◊ It gets better: "M'Gurk", the character Mxy is hollering for in the strip, is, presumably, the same M'Gurk he was looking for in his first comic-book appearance back in the 40's.

The Commissioner Gordon: Superman spends most of his time working with Captain Maggie Sawyer of the Special Crimes Unit. Inspector Dan "Terrible" Turpin, Captain Sawyer's right hand man, was originally vehemently opposed to officially including Superman in police activities, but eventually accepted his assistance when it became clear that the superpowered and alien enemies were simply outside the weight class of the SCU. Commissioner Gordon himself appears in "World's Finest" during the initial Gotham scenes, and in a later episode he assists Superman when Superman is impersonating Batman.

Villain Has a Point: Luthor's rant in "Blasts from the Past" about how Superman should send Mala back to the Phantom Zone for Earth's sake. Her actions and those of her partner-in-crime, then and since, only served to vindicate his attitude entirely. In "Warrior Queen," Daseen and Sazu were completely correct in that Maxima was not queen material and was letting Almerac rot because she was too busy seeking a mate. Daseen was far worse than Maxima ever was, though.

Adaptation Relationship Overhaul
 Superman: The Animated Series / int_72ce3f54
comment
Adaptation Relationship Overhaul: The Legion of Super-Heroes aren't as tight with Superman as their comic counterparts. In the original comics (aside from various Cosmic Retcons that downplayed or outright discarded their ties to Superman, usually in relation to the established continuity at the time choosing to disregard Superman's history as the original Superboy), the Legion of Super-Heroes was inspired to form by Superman's boyhood exploits as Superboy and appreciated his hand in their existence so much that they used time travel to recruit the young Superman-to-be into their team and regularly allowed him to participate on missions. In this continuity, their interaction with the Man of Steel is limited to three of them visiting him as a teenager once in the episode "New Kids in Town".

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: In "The Prometheon," Superman and Dr. Hamilton are directly responsible for the monster waking up and rampaging through Metropolis. The jerkass military man accompanying them wants to leave it where it is and blow up the asteroid it's lashed to (which is what they were sent out to do in the first place), but Hamilton objects and has Superman push the asteroid out of Earth's path...and right into the path of the Sun, which wakes it up.

What do they do with it? They do not say. How do they keep it from waking back up when the water melts? They do not say. And how do they deal with the fact that, until they do figure out a solution, they have frozen the entire Metropolis water supply? Again, they do not say.

Reality Is Unrealistic: At one point Superman flies a spaceship out of a black hole's gravity well. This looks fake, but black holes aren't vacuums. It takes thousands of years for things to fall into a black hole unless they're already moving towards it because the gravitational pull isn't any stronger than it would be for any regular object of the same mass.

Unity, sort of a mix of Shub-Niggurath and Yog-Sothoth. This is not the first or the last time the DCAU would go to the Lovecraft well, but probably one of the freakiest. The Preacher/Great Old One assisting Unity was an even more blatant Nyarlathotep Expy.

Laser-Guided Karma: In "Obsession," a snobby rich lady parks her expensive car in a fire zone and airily tells off a passing man who chides her for it...right before Superman drops one of the Toyman's robots on the car and smashes it flat.

You Have Outlived Your Usefulness
 Superman: The Animated Series / int_928ca2cc
comment
You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: "Your usefulness to me has ended." — Brainiac to his brainwashed victim, Batman, in "Knight Time." Darkseid does not say the actual line, but when Bruno Mannheim has served his purpose in "Apokolips... Now!", he is left to die on an island about to be destroyed by a nuclear explosion. The DVD commentary suggests "King of Hell" as an alternative. Dr. Vale in "The Way of All Flesh".

Betty and Veronica
 Superman: The Animated Series / int_94e4c8ab
comment
Betty and Veronica: Lois and Lana can slip into this when they are in the same episode. At first sight, Lana would be Betty and Lois would be Veronica as in the comics. However, Lois's proximity makes her more attainable, while Lana grew from Clark's tame childhood friend into someone who freely manipulates through sexuality, in stark contrast to the comics of the post-Crisis DC Universe. Clark and Bruce Wayne are the Betty and Veronica to Lois's Archie in World's Finest. Lois goes on several dates with Bruce and they share some steamy kisses, to Clark's frustration. Loves My Alter Ego is played interestingly here; as Bruce puts it, she's fond of Bruce Wayne and Superman—it's the other two guys she doesn't like. (Although, according to Bruce Timm, it's only Batman she really doesn't like.)

Not Me This Time
 Superman: The Animated Series / int_95b875b1
comment
Not Me This Time: Lois Lane and Clark Kent frequently go to Lex Luthor to learn the truth behind the current villainous scheme, but several times he explains that no, he is not the one trying to kill somebody and/or blot out the sun... this week. The most notable of this is "Target" where Lex says he respects Lane and currently has no reason to kill her. Despite Clark claiming he's just trying to keep Lois from investigating him, she believes Lex as it's not his style to try to torture a target instead of killing them quickly. On the other hand, in the follow-up episode “Solar Power� (the "blot out the sun" plot), it's more played with - everybody assumes that Luminus, who is using LexCorp satellites and used to work for Lex in his pre-supervillainy days, got Lex's direct help in prison with his plot. Lex claims he's losing millions and would never endanger the Earth, but nobody believes him. Lois and Jimmy continue to investigate the connection with Luthor and eventually find Luminus at an abandoned LexCorp lab, but whether he commandeered it and the satellites or is there with permission is never answered, and Lex never comes under any scrutiny for it. In "The Late Mr. Kent", Walker, who is on death row, admits that he was a thief who committed robbery plenty of times, but he never hurt anybody and did not kill the woman he was convicted of murdering. In "Knight Time", Superman and Robin notice that there are mind control machines on Bruce Wayne's phone in his office. They track down the Mad Hatter but, upon capturing him, he states that the technology used is beyond anything he could build, and also beyond the capabilities of everybody that he has stolen mind control technology from in the past.

 Superman: The Animated Series / int_964ea66c

A-Team Firing: Averted throughout most of the series (not that they would actually need to play it straight, with a bulletproof hero), except for the crossover "World's Finest," which brought Batman and the Joker to Metropolis and seemed to be trying to make up for not using the trope before. When the Joker kidnaps Lois his henchmen shoot at Bruce Wayne and, though they initially appear to be firing at his feet in a deliberate attempt to force him to fall off the roof, by the time he actually falls they are firing dozens of shots at him from five feet away, outlining his entire body, without hitting him even once. When he finally does fall off the roof he lands on a scaffold and the criminals continue to shoot at him, firing so many bullets they knock the scaffold off the building and actually demolish the wooden floor he is standing on, still without hitting Bruce.

"Not So Different" Remark: Unusually, Superman gets this from an ally. When he goes to Doctor Fate for help, Fate explains that he has retired from superheroics, weary from the endless battle. He tells Superman that the two of them are similar, both masters of their own fate, and Superman should join him and likewise leave behind the petty conflicts of humanity. Superman, of course, explains that they are nothing alike.

Family-Unfriendly Death
 Superman: The Animated Series / int_9afa05c7
comment
Family-Unfriendly Death: The series actually shows two scenes of a gas chamber execution. The first is of an innocent man accused of a crime, in which they show him desperately trying to keep his face away from the inrushing gas until Superman breaks in to save him, then in the very last seconds of the episode, as the corrupt cop really responsible awaits his death, he figures out how Clark Kent, who he tried to kill for finding out the truth, was able to survive. Then the scene immediately cuts to the executioner's hand pushing the switch over, and fades out Dan Turpin, after he frees Superman, and the timely arrival of the forces of New Genesis, Darkseid is forced to withdraw, but not without firing one final Omega Beam, which streaks toward Superman before curving around and instantly vaporizing Turpin. Mala and Jax-Ur go out by getting sucked into a black hole. This would perhaps be acceptable, except that, well...

Foreshadowing: In "World's Finest", Alfred's research shows that all previous owners of the "Laughing Dragon" statue have died young from illness. Luthor should have done the same reading; by Justice League, carrying kryptonite around for years has given him cancer just like in the comics. In the episode "Little Girl Lost," the model of the comet breaking the globe hints at the upcoming impact of Fleischer's Comet. Brainiac at one point shoots Luthor in the back. A later appearance ("Knight Time") shows Brainiac probably has the ability to outright destroy a human being if he wanted to, with the only reason he failed being that it was Superman he was blasting. Justice League would later reveal Brainiac put a sample of himself within Luthor, just in case he died.

Continuity Nod: In "The Last Son of Krypton, Part 3", when Clark Kent and Lex Luthor meet for the first time Luthor, irritated by Clark, remarks that he will remember the name "Kent." Throughout the series he refers to Clark only as "Kent," never by his first or both his first and last name, despite routinely varying how he addresses other characters. After one final strong gust of wind in "Superman's Pal", Lois comments that she needs to start wearing pants. In the next episode, "A Fish Story'", for the first time in the entire series (Except when she was undercover and in disguise) she wears pants. In the same scene, Jimmy Olsen uses the signal watch he received in that same episode to call for help from Superman.

Leitmotif: Most of the villains have their own motifs, as does Superman himself, naturally. Supes is the most prominent motif in the show, consisting of the first few notes of the show's opening.

Obfuscating Stupidity: How Clark deals with Mxyzptlk the first few times in “Mxyzpixilated�, by pretending to be ignorant enough that Mxy slips up trying to "explain" things to him. Eventually Mxy catches on, but Clark continues to get him by feigning disinterest instead.

Closer to Earth: Of the two Intergang members that Jimmy asks for help in "Little Girl Lost," the boy runs off while Amy (the girl) stays behind to help. She explains that it is only right that she try to fix the problem she helped create, which is odd since she showed no concern while creating the problem, namely when she was committing robbery and attempting to kill Superman earlier in the episode.

Oh, Crap!: "Mxypixilated" gives Mxyzptlk multiple moments of dismay right as he realizes Superman tricked him into banishing himself again. —>Mr. Mxyzptlk: "Aw, nuts." "Knight Time": Brainiac has a deadpan reaction of dismay upon discovering "Batman" is really Superman. "New Kids in Town": Teenage Clark loves freaking out Brainiac. First by ripping his arm off; Brainiac's expression turns to shock. Then when Clark hurls him into the Sun, Brainiac has another one as he melts away from the heat. "Solar Power": Luminus' expression becomes unnerved when he realizes that the depowered Superman is returning to normal. Same reaction for several alien bounty hunters in "The Main Man", Superman, weakened by exposure to simulated red sunlight, tricks them into throwing him into an Earth-like habitat aboard the Preserver's ship. Cue theme music. "Superman's Pal" gave Metallo a brief one when he realized that Jimmy Olsen had just removed his Kryptonite power source with a splash of battery acid. He has time for a brief shriek before he collapses.

Mr. Mxyzptlk's wife, Ms. Gsptlsnz is a blatantly sex-on-legs. She's basically Veronica Lake by way of Jessica Rabbit in terms of Impossible Hourglass Figure and hair, sultry voicing, and apparently spends her days lounging around the 5th dimension in a midriff-exposing shirt and unzipped Daisy Dukes. It comes to a head in a scene in "Mxyzpixilated" where, in an attempt to distract Mxyzptlk from his crusade against Superman, she gives what can only be described as a Power Perversion Potential montage, changing her look to various Sexy Whatever Outfit. In order, a Femme Fatale, a sexy schoolgirl, a pin-up inspired sailor outfit, a frilly bikini, a cheerleading outfit, a tropical dancer, a Betty Grable swimsuit, a bathrobe-bra-and-panties combo, then finally nothing but a towel. Alas, her loving but temporarily obsessed husband is Not Distracted by the Sexy.

Hide Your Lesbians: Maggie Sawyer is an imported character from the Superman comics who first appearing in the 1980's and has been an out-lesbian since 1988. However, this could not be explicitly stated in a kids show and the closest they get to covering this point is in “ Apokolips... Now!� when she is visited in the hospital by a woman who comforts her throughout both parts of the episode. In a future episode, her arm is around Maggie during Dan Turpin's funeral. The woman is unnamed in the show, but DVD commentary and the credits reveal that she is Toby Raynes, Maggie's long-time girlfriend in the comics, and was included as a reference to their relationship.

comment
Truer to the Text: While the series may have had the cases of Adaptation Distillation, Adaptational Origin Connection, Adaptational Wimp, Composite Character, and Canon Foreigner, Superman: The Animated Series is the most faithful (and influential) adaptation of the DC Comics series as well as Superman (along with his mythos, supporting characters, allies, rogue gallery, etc) in general in comparison to all of the Superman adaptations that have been created both before and after the show (particularly the live action ones). The series' take on the Fourth World is more faithful to Jack Kirby's conception than the Comics' reworkings of Kirby after his departure and Aborted Arc. Darkseid is the Galactic Conqueror searching for the Anti-Life Equation, he and his agents operate behind the scenes of crime syndicate like Intergang, and he serves as The Corrupter and The Chessmaster. All the character designs of the New Gods: Darkseid, Desaad, Kalibak, Steppenwolf, Orion, Mr. Miracle, Big Barda, are very much in keeping with Kirby.

Preserve Your Gays: In a show that is not afraid to say "die", lesbian cop Maggie Sawyer is blown out of her car during an attack by Intergang and the next shot has her badly burned and motionless beneath a crushing pile of rubble, without moving her eyes or her fingers. Dan Turpin even calls the attackers "murderers" as he screams at them, so everything seems to be indicating that she is really dead... except she is alive, and she returns later on in this and future episodes. The intent of the trope, to hide or eliminate homosexuality in a work, is then reversed, as her subsequent recovery in the hospital features the very first appearance of a woman the credits and DVD commentary identify as Toby Raynes, her partner in the comics. Toby is later see comforting her at Dan Turpin's funeral.

When All You Have Is a Hammer…
 Superman: The Animated Series / int_bf698238
comment
When All You Have Is a Hammer…: Averted, despite public perception of Superman as a character who simply uses his ever-evolving powers to solve his current problems. Nowhere is this more apparent than in “Mxyzpixilated� where Superman not only continually tricks Mr. Mxyzptlk back to his own dimension, but successfully gambits him into staying there permanently. What is more, he convinces him that he was simply toying with the annoying imp the entire time (and very well might have been). The overall pattern in this series is that it's not difficult to catch Superman off-guard with something he hasn't seen before, but if you try the same trick on him again, he'll have figured out some way to counter it. "Fool me twice..."

Dies Differently in Adaptation
 Superman: The Animated Series / int_c181a846
comment
Dies Differently in Adaptation: This continuity gives a different explanation for Abin Sur's death than what was given in the comics. The Emerald Dawn miniseries revealed that the reason Abin Sur was dying in the first place was because he sustained mortal injuries from fighting a villain called Legion (which would later be retconned after the DCAU ended its run when Geoff Johns established in the "Secret Origin" arc that it was instead Atrocitus, future founder and leader of the Red Lantern Corps, who was responsible for Abin Sur being mortally wounded). Here, Sinestro is responsible for Abin Sur dying.

comment
A Nazi by Any Other Name: The episode "Absolute Power" brought Superman to an alien planet that had been conquered by Jax-Ur and Mala, two Kryptonian criminals that had escaped from the Phantom Zone. The parallels with Nazi Germany are present but vague in the beginning, there are stories told of economic depression and social unrest that were corrected when a new discipline-obsessed regime came to power, but it becomes patently hard to miss the symbolism when they start using the Hitlergruß (Nazi Salute).

Xanatos Gambit: Darkseid brainwashes Superman and turns him against humanity in the series finale "Legacy". If Superman wins, then Darkseid can claim Earth without having technically broken his treaty with New Genesis, since it was Earth's own hero that conquered it. If Superman is defeated, then one of Darkseid's enemies is destroyed and Earth is laid to ruin in the conflict. If (as actually happens) Superman eventually breaks free of the brainwashing, he's still led an army against Earth under his own banner, greatly compromising their faith in him as a defender.

Loves My Alter Ego: Lois Lane has an infatuation with Superman throughout the series, but in keeping with the Post-Crisis interpretation of the characters she begins to develop feelings for Clark Kent as the series progresses. This is also a facet of her Betty and Veronica tension with Superman and Batman in “World's Finestâ€�—as Batman points out, Lois likes Superman but not Clark Kent, and also likes Bruce Wayne but not Batman.

Ret-Canon: Livewire and Mercy were two characters created for the show and then introduced into the comics. Parasite gained the 'outfit' of his DCAU counterpart starting in the early 2000's. Despite the show's version of Supergirl being a loose adaptation of Kara Zor-El, the then-current Supergirl, Linda Danvers, wore the first costume of DCAU Supergirl for the rest of her tenure. Likewise, Kara In-Ze's age gap, being older than Clark technically, but not physically or mentally, was reused for The Supergirl from Krypton (2004) when it introduced a post-Crisis version of Kara. During the Public Enemies arc of Superman/Batman comic, Metallo's disguise was reminiscent of his human form and disguise from the DCAU.

Shout-Out
 Superman: The Animated Series / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: Superman's face design was in part modeled after the look of Hercules from the 1960s cartoon The Mighty Hercules. Bruce Timm was unsatisfied with early sketches until the crew watched a tape of the cartoon and he took inspiration from that. In â€�The Last Son of Krypton, part 3â€�, Martha Kent tells Clark, "I don't want anyone thinking you're like that nut in Gotham City." In "My Girl," Lex Luthor is overheard explaining to his henchman that he wants him in Central City by that night. In an example mixed with a Take That!, another episode has Supergirl reading a comic book about a spider-themed superhero before disgustedly stating that the character is gross. In "Monkey Fun," Colonel Lane's Air Force C.O. looks exactly like Colonel Bellows from I Dream of Jeannie. At one point in "Tools of the Trade", Dan Turpin swear by his "Aunt Patty's pension" — given who he's based on, this is undoubtedly a reference to Ben Grimm's Aunt Petunia.

Magic Skirt: Lois Lane gets this all the time, as most of the time she is falling from high heights, getting caught in gusts of wind, being carried by Superman, and being attacked by bad guys, all while wearing these short skirts. She eventually gives up and starts wearing pants. Mercy Graves, Lex Luthor's bodyguard. She is always running around doing high kicks, being beaten up, and sent flying by people, all in an outfit that looks more like a tight top than a full chauffeur's uniform. Lana Lang as well when she shows up. Maggie Sawyer. It was anyone's guess what she was supposed to be wearing under her jacket (which was too short to really be considered a trench coat). And finally Supergirl, which makes it pretty much every major female character on the show. (Somebody among the creators really had a thing for short skirts.)

Cerebus Syndrome: The first appearance of Darkseid. Until then, Superman had faced various foes, but none of them could withstand him in a conventional fight for long - not even Brainiac or Metallo. In “Father's Day�, Superman fights off Darkseid's son Kalibak with some difficulty, but then he meets the lord of Apokolips himself and is laid low in seconds as a warning and a command to bend the knee. Darkseid's next appearance sees him outright defeat Superman and string him up for the world to see and despair at. He leaves after humanity tells him to get lost, but not before murdering Dan Turpin for leading the shouts of defiance.

Five-Episode Pilot: "The Last Son of Krypton" took place over three: Part One portrayed the last days of Krypton, ending with baby Kal-El being launched into space to escape the planet's destruction. Part Two shows how Kal was adopted by the Kents and grew up in Smallville, as well as how he discovered his heritage and came to terms with his powers. Part Three cuts ahead a few years to Clark Kent signing on with the Daily Planet, and showcases him as Superman in costume for the first time, as well as marking the first appearance of Lex Luthor (although in this instance his role was very small). In the final moments, Brainiac's satellite is found by extraterrestrials in space, and he seizes control of their ship...

Race Lift Following in the same vein as the character's earlier appearances in Lois & Clark, William Henderson here is African-American.

In a What Could Have Been example, Perry White was originally considered to be turned into an African-American man before DC vetoed the idea — 13 years before Zack Snyder made the idea a reality with the DC Extended Universe and the casting of Laurence Fishburne as Perry.

Now!", Earth has refused to submit to Apokoliptian rule and Darkseid is about to annihilate the entire planet, with the implication that he really is able to do it, when the forces of New Genesis arrive. Orion explains that Earth is now under Highfather's protection, and any aggression against it will lead to all-out war between the New Gods.

Recruited from the Gutter: In the episode "Ghost in the Machine", Mercy Graves explains to Superman that Luthor took her in off the streets, explaining her loyalty to him. Unfortunately, Luthor doesn't return the sentiments and abandons her when the room collapses, prompting her to turn on him in Justice League. (Unfortunately, this didn't stick.)

comment
Action Girl: Lois Lane, though traditionally a woman in need of rescuing, also has basic hand-to-hand combat training and some proficiency with light firearms. She is outclassed by the supervillains of the show, but when faced with normal human opponents, or when she is pushed into a corner without Superman to save her, she does well all by herself. Mercy Graves does not get many opportunities to show them off, but she has an impressive array of martial skills. In the comics she's a literal Amazon. Superman's cousin Supergirl managed to beat the Female Furies, Volcana and an Alien entity trying to assimilate humans. She and Batgirl also took down Livewire, Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn.

A God Am I: Darkseid has something of an ego — a completely justified ego — and rules over Apokolips by asserting his own godhood. Even when he is physically defeated and thrown down to the clutches of his oppressed slaves, he points out, as they gently tend to his wounds and carry him away on their shoulders, he cannot be beaten since, as he says: "I am many things, Kal-El, but here, I am God."

Family-Friendly Firearms: The show generally averts this trope, many characters wield normal firearms and are explicitly using advanced weaponry when lasers are shown, but “Heavy Metal� plays the trope straight. Intergang initially wields traditional machine guns that are shown to fire bullets and eject spent casings when they are firing into the air to intimidate their hostages, but when they actually shoot at Superman and Steel they are inexplicably firing lasers instead.

Composite Character
 Superman: The Animated Series / int_e4965307
comment
Composite Character: Mala is named for an obscure male character from the 1950s, the leader of a trio of the first evil Kryptonians Superman battled in two stories. The more famous Phantom Zone idea and villains like Zod came later in the Silver Age and utterly eclipsed the original trio of Mala, U-Ban, and Kizo. However, in terms of her gender and relationship with fellow Composite Character Jax-Ur, Mala is based primarily on the evil Kryptonian Ursa from the film Superman II. Interestingly enough, Ursa was probably very loosely inspired by the comics' evil Kryptonian villainess Faora Hu-Ul; unlike Ursa and Mala, who like and respect their male allies, Faora was a man-hating Serial Killer back on Krypton. Kyle Rayner is a combination of Kyle, Hal Jordan, and John Stewart from the comics (Later, in Justice League, John Stewart is a main character and Hal Jordan gets a minor cameo). When Kyle Rayner appeared in JLU ("The Return"), he was redesigned to look less like Hal Jordan and more like his comic book counterpart. The Flash. Although it is never stated which Flash is in "Speed Demons", he is confirmed to be Wally West in Justice League. His personality has a lot in common with Bart Allen and he has Barry Allen's day job as a forensic scientist. Jax-Ur is a mash-up of his comic-book incarnation and the better known General Zod. Zod is clarified to have existed much later on in Justice League Beyond 2.0, but apparently as a historical criminal that Superman never encountered. "New Kids in Town" has two-thirds of the classic Legion of Super-Heroes trio visiting a young Clark Kent. While Cosmic Boy and Saturn Girl are retained, Lightning Lad is replaced with Chameleon Boy, though this overlaps with Decomposite Character since Lightning Lad is still present, but only in a brief cameo among the rest of the Legionnaires.

Reconstruction
 Superman: The Animated Series / int_e50987a9
comment
Reconstruction: The series as a whole is a reconstruction for the modern version of Superman from the Post-Crisis comics. While there are many deconstructed elements within the series and a lot of things where surprisingly realistic outcomes that were previously hand-waved during the silver age of comic books then being deconstructed during the bronze to dark age of comic books, the series overall is firmly on the ideal side of the Sliding Scale of Idealism vs. Cynicism with Superman being more down to earth and normal yet still being the Big Good everyone expects him to be. In spite of the darker moments in some of the episodes, there is always an underlying theme of optimism, idealism, and hope.

Expy: Jax-Ur bears little resemblance to his comic book counterpart, drawing more inspiration from General Zod. The Prometheon is very similar to Doomsday: a Generic Doomsday Villain originally designed as the Ultimate Life Form, which then turned against its creators, went on a rampage, became Sealed Evil in a Can, arrived on Earth via a meteor, and proves virtually impossible to stop. Luthor is very similar to Telly Savalas' portrayal of Ernst Stavro Blofeld in On Her Majesty's Secret Service. Like Blofeld, Luthor is a rich cretin with a thirst for respectability. Also, he's quick to drop the genteel act and throw down if necessary.

Clothing Damage: When John Corben becomes Metallo, Luthor explains that his new body and skin are composed of metallo, an almost indestructible new alloy. However, his clothing is normal fiber and is reduced to tatters when he is hit by a train. Clark Kent's clothing is burned off and ripped to shreds when Brainiac tries to ambush him as a teenager in Smallville. Clark's civilian clothes are frequently destroyed, revealing his (undamaged) super suit underneath. When Superman's costume is damaged, it really shows the seriousness of the attack; the outfit has been shown to withstand fire, bullets, lasers, and all sorts of attacks that destroyed everything else in their path.

Adaptation Origin Connection
 Superman: The Animated Series / int_e8dca77c
comment
Adaptation Origin Connection: In this version, the failure to evacuate Krypton is due to Brainiac's deliberate suppression of Jor-El's theories, making the comic-book Coluan robot into a Kryptonian example of A.I. Is a Crapshoot. As such, Brainiac is responsible for Superman's status as (initially) the Last of His Kind. Brainiac goes on to be one of the series' Big Bads alongside Lex Luthor and Darkseid. Titanos the Super-Ape is given a past connection to Lois, who used to have him as a pet before he was sent to space. This continuity gives Green Lantern Kyle Rayner a decidedly different origin from what he had in the comics, where he was given a ring by Ganthet during a time where the Green Lantern Corps was disbanded. This version of Kyle Rayner's origin has closer ties to Superman, Abin Sur and Sinestro by establishing Rayner to be a co-worker of Clark Kent's to explain his presence in Metropolis, having his ring given to him by a dying Abin Sur due to being a Composite Character with Hal Jordan and having Sinestro indirectly responsible for Kyle being inducted into the Corps because Sinestro was the one who killed Abin Sur in the first place (in the comics, Sinestro had no involvement in the death of Abin Sur and was even established later on to consider Abin Sur a friend in spite of his own betrayal of the Green Lantern Corps).

Exact Words: When John Corben, reborn as Metallo, complains his new robot body lacks the ability to feel, Luthor assures him there's "adjustments" to be made. Later, Corben barges in and demands those adjustments — only to learn that Luthor meant he needs to adjust to it. Karkull's promise to whoever frees him. He said he was "power beyond understanding", not that you would get any of that power, foolish mortal. In "Apokolips... Now!", Darkseid promises Bruno Manheim that in exchange for his help in weakening Earth for an invasion, he'll be made a king. When he abandons Manheim in a nuclear plant with a reactor about to explode, Darkseid crowns him a king... of fools.

Acquitted Too Late: When Superman and Lois Lane have found the proof to exonerate a man on death-row, they find that the governor is not at home because he decided to attend the execution personally, and Lois laments that they barely had time for him to make the phone call stopping the execution. Walker is already in the gas chamber and the switch had already been thrown. It is a good thing Superman is able to save him anyway.

Dirty Cop: Detective Bowman. He made detective by framing a man for murder and "solving" the crime, got said innocent man sent to death row, then attempted to kill Clark Kent when he could prove the man's innocence.

Crossover: The series had three crossovers with Batman: The Animated Series, confirming the existence of the DC Animated Universe. The season two three-part episode "World's Finest," which featured characters from Batman traveling to Metropolis. The season three episode "Knight Time," in which Superman teams up with Robin (Tim Drake) to hunt down a missing Batman. The season four episode "The Demon Reborn" in which Batman and Superman team-up to fight Ra's Al Ghul.

Undying Loyalty
 Superman: The Animated Series / int_f16da697
comment
Undying Loyalty: The end of the series has probably the darkest version of this trope imaginable. Darkseid is about as evil as you can get and treats his slaves horribly. Yet even after Superman beats him and throws him down to the slaves' mercy, they pick him up to treat him. Why? Fortunately, the same episode provides a lighter example in Jimmy Olsen. His loyalty to Superman never wavers, not even after Darkseid's brainwashing him has made him a pariah to most of the planet. Although (understandably) reluctant to approach the Brainwashed and Crazy Superman, when the hero returned to normal, Jimmy was one of his only friends. When asked for his opinion by a news crew, he vehemently retorts, "Superman's saved the world a million times. We owe him another chance!"

Powers as Programs
 Superman: The Animated Series / int_f2227354
comment
Powers as Programs: Generally averted, if a villain seeks to remove Superman's powers they need to remove their source (the sun), but villain Parasite plays the trope perfectly straight. He can drain the powers of any character and then use them himself, leaving the other person powerless while he gains fantastic abilities. Ra's al Ghul also once attempted to drain Superman's powers and take them into himself, but his methods were outside the ken of science.
