My Adventures With Superman 7/10
This cartoon managed to do something that every Superman cartoon and film have failed at: make Clark Kent interesting. Hell, they made Lois and Jimmy interesting! I'm serious, that is something that every other version of this could not do. If that new movie manages this elusive task I will leave the theater happy. This is the beginning of Superman's career as a hero and at The Daily Planet. Lois is also new as well as Jimmy. Clark struggles with new powers that just keep on happening (electrical ones, freezing scream) and figuring out his past as a Kryptonian and believing he was sent to take over the planet for his alien race.
This series has two seasons so far and the first flew by while the second dragged a bit. You can't just jump into this and watch random episodes because there is an actual story to this. I had hoped they would hold off on anything related to Brainiac but they brought him in and it just dominated the rest of the series. Lois' relationship with her father was interesting as well as his connection to Amanda Waller. The art took a little bit of getting used to (I am accustomed to the 90s style) but the voices were perfect in this. Check it out on Amazon of all places.
