What if…?

If Jimmy played the piano, Thomas would play the cello.

Adventures of Superman #525 from 1995

Always interesting to see character’s comparisons to celebrities. In this case, we have Brad Pitt and Arnold Schwarzenegger. This is from 1995. 3 decades earlier, in 1961-62, people submitted various fancasts in to the editors. Here are a few of the castings:

(That’s 3 Supermen, as well as a Lois, Jimmy, and Lana)

I haven't really shared my thoughts on My Adventures with Superman so far in detail but they've been broadly positive! The strongest part of the show is definitely the characterisation -- Lois, Clark, and Jimmy all feel perfect. Some of their dynamics and interactions are different compared to usual Superman continuities but it all works in the specific context the show set up (being interns/rookie journalists who join TDP at around the same time, and Clark and Jimmy being college friends).

The weakest part of the show imo is some of the designs and the general kind of broad sci-fi reinterpretation of some of the villains. For some it works but for others I really wish they had kept more classic elements of the characters or had gone a bit further with their reinterpretation and really made them interesting in the new contexts.

This is about as much as I can say vaguely so:

Spoilers up to episode 7 under cut!

I didn't really like how they did Silver Banshee in particular -- Siobhan's design feels pretty lame in comparison to her in the comics and the reinterpretation of her powers fell flat for me. I also really didn't understand why they associated her with Interpol, or even where they're going with Intergang in general -- are we going to have a connection with Apokolips?

To expand on the Lois, Clark, Jimmy dynamics: there was a lot of backlash to how Lois responded to learning that Clark is Superman and I could definitely see it being informed by misogyny which is unfortunately unsurprising. The first episode of the show literally sets up the foundation of their relationship as the truth -- it would make less sense for Lois not to be upset. As expanded on in the next episodes, the bit I really liked in particular was how Lois seemed to be unsure of how much Clark had been lying to her regarding his persona and their relationship. The way it was written felt pretty natural and true to the core of both Lois and Clark. What really cinched it for me is Clark confessing that he didn't want to tell Jimmy and Lois because he didn't want them to see him as different, like, that's it, that's exactly what I'm looking for.

I definitely wouldn't have put the reveal so early in the series but it works for what it is! And I'm excited to see a dynamic of Lois and Jimmy helping Clark, just new to being Superman, discover more about his heritage/powers/identity, I don't think I've ever really seen it before and it has loads of potential.

One last thing I wanted to share my thoughts on is that I was pretty disappointed with how Episode 7 ended. I thought we were past Evil Superman by now but I guess not. I really don't want to do an Injustice lmao. I hope this plot point gets resolved speedily because it's just kind of nothing to me

Once again, overall I really like the series so far and I'm excited to keep watching :)

Lois. Remember when you asked me who I was? Why I'm here? I finally have an answer for you.

So, I’m (nearly) as much of a softie as the next guy for Thomas reassuring Jimmy that anal sex isn’t required between gay men, and/or doesn’t have to hurt, but I have thought of a variation that delights me to absolutely no end:

Imagine if Jimmy is familiar with the concept of anal sex but he assumes it’s a nasty rumor meant to make sex between men sound gross and degrading. Thomas brings it up and Jimmy is like “That’s real?!?!”

and then has to desperately try to reevaluate his understanding of this entire relations-between-men business on the fly.

I feel like Clark appreciates the irony of wearing a shitty $6 Batman mask to the Daily Planet Halloween Event

Happy Halloween folks!
