'My Adventures with Superman' Review: Clark Kent Shines Bright in Adult Swim Series
Superman is iconic. The Big Blue Boy Scout has graced us with his presence for almost 90 years. We all know his story: Krypton explodes, a rocket flies to Earth, and he fights for truth and justice. But how does one redefine the character for a new generation? There have been reboots and retellings of the Superman mythos over the last 30 years, but none are as unique as My Adventures With Superman.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT RELATED: Lois and Clark Pursue the Story of the Century in 'My Adventures With Superman' Trailer Throughout all his struggles, Clark finds a way to keep fighting. Superman symbolizes hope and a better tomorrow, and Quaid brings that optimistic energy needed for the character. He’s best friends with Jimmy because they’re both nerds, and the series also doesn’t shy away from that fact. Clark isn’t a stoic, emotionless god, which makes this animated take one of the best in recent memory. He’s still very much the hero we know, but not without his flaws.
It feels very similar to the other live-action Superman series currently on the air, Superman & Lois. While that series shows the couple almost 20 years into their relationship, My Adventures with Superman is about their beginnings, and it is adorable. It’s almost like they were made for each other. Combine that with the wacky antics and conspiracies from Jimmy Olsen, and you have a fantastic group of characters.
