8/10
Even a non-Superman fan can be won over.
25 December 2018
Thanks to you Warner Bros. Animation for bringing me both exactly what expected from The Man of Steel and a lot more, because I feared that I would be bored watching my least favorite superhero in this series.

While not as complex as the masterfully crafted characters of Batman: TAS, I was presented with many entertaining characters old and new like the intimidating Darkseid and the destroyer of Krypton himself Brainiac and the hilarious Mr. Mxyzptlk. Other memorable villains include the business-man Lex Luthor who quickly became my favorite and the tragic case of Bizarro.

As a non-Superman fan I still have my own problems with Superman himself, because I think he's quite a bore, but I didn't expect anything else. Tim Dailey may be "the voice of Superman" for the fans like Kevin Conroy is to Batman fans, but I personally prefer the Justice League series' George Newbern.

My praise towards Superman: TAS goes to the colourful animation and the reinvention of the Superman mythos along with the episodes Brave New Metropolis, The Late Mr. Kent and World's Finest.

A treat for Superman fans and superhero fans in general and, yes, even a non-Superman fan can occasionally get a new appreciation for the Man of Steel.
