Edner does a bit Lex i just got a call from media relations the Daily Planet’s asking
for a comment superman saved the cast of Sunshine are you talking to yourself again
i’m remote controlling a weapon the signal takes 9 minutes to reach the sun i have to
coordinate my transmissions perfectly whoa you were released from jail to work for your
country not on your own whoa i know I promised not to waste my intellect on elaborate
super death traps i know that and I don’t care but I looked in the mirror one morning and
realized something i’m getting older and he isn’t no god great use of sprinkling in the ego fusion
will occur in 30 seconds not in here it won’t hey dang [Music] dang time to reignite the sun gray with the solar flare yeah this is gorgeous yeah you better catch that thing do you remember
the sun element of the story at all not really okay this will be this will be pretty fresh
for me all right cool superman somehow he’s extending his own bioelectric field whoa i
mean he’s got to have crazy sunju right now whoa it’s like a colony how many of these things have you
rescued it seems impossible you’re lifting 200 quintilion tons even allowing for the 16th normal
gravity here on my moon base that’s three times your record god look at the drip but that’s the
heaviest apparatus known to man the new superpower you exhibited when you saved me and it’s obvious
your body is changing radically radically i’m not sure how to tell you this tell me straight
your trip to the sun overexposed yourselves to solar radiation more than even your body can
metabolize i see it like tiny fireworks beneath my skin wowee your cells are oversaturated with
power wa they are bursting from within there’s too much power i’m dying i’m sorry Superman if
I hadn’t tried to steal fire from the sun none of this would have happened don’t apologize you
couldn’t have known m it was his plan all along luther used me to kill you damn he is brilliant
you’re our inspiration Superman and I promise we’ll find a way to save you i need a favor Dr
quentyn ooh anything my condition don’t tell anyone not yet there are some things I have to
do first you got to set things right they did a good job subduing some of the more extreme art
but his outfit and stuff like feeling like it’s special and pop this is cool the art really
works oh sheep whoa Clark where the hell have you been kent working on my suntan it’s too
right you’ve been freeze it’s above your head step out of the Oculus by all means boys

about friends in high places that seemed odd the Court of International Justice is talking
about reinstating the electric chair just for him jesus don’t be morbid Smallville whoa i’m so
sorry idiot your boyfriend’s an idiot cook this fool superman and he’s not my idiot why thanks
Lois i don’t know where my self-esteem would be without your There was something I wanted
to tell you if it’s about the trial coverage it can wait till tomorrow i’ve got to fly yeah
I got to fly lois I have something to tell you oh snap moment dang with the classic i’m
Clark Kent sorry Superman but you’ve got to admit that’s very hard to believe i I
know by design my whole point that was my mission all the years I spent trying to
prove you were Superman you almost had me a couple of times it’s very cute moment
i mean you got to set some things right didn’t think it was secure enough but
this doormat but right here this is made of solid lead that key can’t be safe why
don’t you give it a try that is your key [Laughter] it weighs half a million
tons that’s funny it’s important to have someplace private to relax hey the
Titanic we talked about the Titanic he’s got a big coin too they got a thing with
coins these guys so is this a date i mean is all this for my birthday or
are we about to get serious here mhm god gorgeous these are for you i picked
them on Alpha Centauri 4 hey Alpha Centuri i got them at the tiki room i didn’t know you
collected modern art actually I do but this is the armory i’ve confiscated some incredibly
destructive weapons over the years there are things here that can even hurt me like this
kryptonite laser or this gravity gun oh my fortress is only for the people closest to me
come see my new time telescope what they’re doing a good job with the chemistry and like
the visual cues that’s Cal Kent the Superman of the 84th century what i’m still working
out the bugs but someday I’ll be able to use it to stop threats before they happen precog
Superman what’s in here oh Vaporman my my genetic experiments oh we’ve got a file on you little pins what the hell lois stay out of
there i didn’t mean to you can go anywhere in the fortress except for this room ominous
that’s ominous yeah it’s not too early for dinner why don’t we eat after this awkward
exchange here at the forbidden room what are you wearing traditional Kryptonian formal wear i
made it myself a You’re a man of many talents a Renaissance man my trip to the sun it not only
tripled my strength it tripled my curiosity my imagination my creativity h is that why you’re
suddenly telling me the truth about your secret identity uh-oh no that’s not why but you
are telling the truth yes okay how do you explain the time Clark was a witness in
the Bos Grimmaldi trial and you were his bodyguard was standing in for me and when
Clark presented you with the key to the city that was Batman too a robot oh Clark Kent
and Superman are one and the same like he has to prove himself as both of them yeah doesn’t
that mean you’ve been lying to me for years o come come back i I I know Batman i see
our whole freakish relationship in stark black and white and I have to ask myself
why would he lie to me oh she’s going to carry Bradshaw yeah I was like this is real
Sex in the City Fortress of Solitude edition all these new powers and his new super
intellect what if he’s grown tired of his little game fooling people who love him just to
feel superior it’s a very cynical way to look at uh secret identity what if he’s brought me here
for some awful experiment that he’s planning in that secret room oh no hey recycle that save
the planet Lois Lane i need a weapon dang this is escalating quick dang it all makes sense now
he’s brought me here to be the mother of a race of superchild can’t let that happen fascinating
they’ll grow up and lie to everybody she’s acting like her father’s daughter in this sequence
that’s a good point sam lane’s here jeeps there can’t be that many of those he knows
I’m here keep out Superman at work [Music] whoa use the whole thing up huh tickles what
have I done for one thing you’ve confirmed my suspicion that I’m immune to kryptonite damn i
don’t understand what’s happening robot 7 seems to have malfunction i’ll check him out later

to resume normal life with all this power like your body just like hit by several trucks so much
no Sleeping Beauty wholesome i was aware of your lumbering presence Kent just finishing work on my
bibliobot a roving library cool it was the best of times it was the Watch your step you clumsy ox o
you ride like a poet but you move like a landslide i’m sure I had my dignity when I came in that’s
some Final Destination [ __ ] waiting to happen over there yep there’s just Oh I saw that Dainci
of crime headline it seems like a compliment but there’s a sneer behind it orers don’t write the
headlines to their stories like I like how he’s in an oversized suit even an animation yeah and
he’s like slouchier you coming Kent what will it take to get the full compliment in one of these
headlines sickens wow that incipid boyish grin smug selfard tell the truth doesn’t his goals
diminish yeah dude our jobs don’t really overlap all right Nick Holt there’s the bar yep can you
imagine a better world Kent in a world without Superman the unattainable Lois Lane might have
noticed good old clerk pining away in the corner a strapping farm boy with brains integrity no
discernable style of his own your price catch for a cynical city girl sure why haven’t you
filed an appeal but with him around you’re a parody of a man a dollar a [ __ ] jeez man rub it
in next to Superman even Lex Luthther’s greatness is overshadowed a we’re in third person territory
i mean villain monologues got to be done right i’m trying to educate you we all fall short of his
sickening inhuman perfection sickening perfection you don’t really act like a man facing the end of
his life no I don’t what would you do if you had his power help people you probably would i’ll
kill you Luthor whoa you Oh yeah the parasite you don’t scare me parasite brain beats brawn
every time yeah that’s what Predator has taught us more than I ever had jesus Christ jesus like

cafeteria after all the power oh snap is he talking about that

Kent afraid he’ll absorb your cowardice damn dude is outnumbered hey that can of
tomatoes that’s tear gas you idiot not for Superman oh no whoa god that that mouth boy that is
a really unsettling way to kill people whoa that dude got a chance to clock him yeah he had a moment of actual If you want
to survive this stay with me nice brains over bronze every time well
I guess brains are the liars yeah that power i should have left you to those animals
Kent but I need you my hostage i need you to tell my story the story of a man who refused to
bend his knee to the alien invader look out he’s coming right at us damn power that won’t
stop him he’s absorbing the kinetic energy of the bullets smart guy Clark this is so unsettling
it’s like a Miyazaki thing in this setting yeah yeah oh does he make sure to trip on stuff as%
he adds the clumsy and works it to his benefit and Earthquake you know I’m not used to seeing
that dynamic in a lot of these movies at least is like Yeah clark having to use the powers you
know what happens when you take on Lex Luthor oh you get Glocked the same thing that’s going
to happen to Superman you know what happens to a toad when it gets struck by lightning i’ve

bed just like genius stacked up on books you can escape anytime you want i don’t want i’m going
to the chair fulfilled knowing that I killed Superman so break the news gently a tasteful
140 point head wow dog in fact I’ve got the layout right here i’ve got the images chosen no
need to call it Jimmy just put your name on this is as far as I go my lovely niece Nostalia
will take you the rest of the way nostalia you and Superman could have been friends and
instead you’re going to die ah but he’ll die first we’ll always have Smallville fascinating
it’s interesting what they’re subduing and what they’re like elevating to make it palatable do
you know what this is it’s the bottle city of one of your enemies brainiac he used his technology
to miniaturaturize the greatest dudes superman Unbound you found a way no but I have found a
suitable planet for them to colonize you found a way in Superman Unbound the thing is it’s
very far away even under normal circumstances it would take me 3 weeks to fly there and back i
don’t understand i’m dying Lois oh you won’t die you’ll find a way out of this we’ll be together
our children will go flying in Metropolis Park oh we can’t have children our biology is
too different a juice would rip you apart what do you always say there’s always a way the
work doesn’t stop just because the bottled city of Cander is taking people to their new home
when you get back I’ll be right here waiting so that’s like a canon event canandor is a big
deal so So even though that was resolved in Superman Unbound it’s a big thing that Gotcha
okay yeah canandor is like a big element and so what Brainiac So it’s always that Brainiac
shrunk down the city and this appears in many different Exactly tail okay cool that’s cool i
like that what happened to Metropolis what the Whoa uh great Caesar’s ghost kent where have
you been for the last 2 months i went to your funeral what i was accidentally buried underneath
Striker’s Island during the prison riot lucky for me there was a fully stocked bomb shelter down
there well to make a long story short Superman heard me calling for help after Superman’s alive
i knew it oh has you seen this uhoh oh no there’s total gibberish on the back of that total back i
think that’s an Easter egg because in the comic books there is often that total gibberish so
I’m wondering refreshing and beautiful fitting spot for the capital New Krypton oh Barel and
Lilo i just read all about you astronauts from Krypton who were lost in space for decades it’s
an honor to meet you i’m from Krypton 2 we know who you are superman we read the exposition
as well but my Kryptonian name is Kell i’m the son of Jorel we’re probably related mhm
a weak man an infectual dreamer follows the father uhhuh the apple does not fall far build
a new krypton squala i don’t have any right to impose my will over hey come back here although
they could probably still hear you if you just keep talking arrogant Kryptonians you just
moved into my fortress shouldn’t have left the key lying around oh that’s funny oh
that the So the robots aren’t that strong even Krypton’s criminally insane forever
trapped in the Phantom Zone evidence more nobility than the best of the human apes you
should be ashamed you guys are condescending i was thinking maybe you could replace me after
I’m gone but you don’t have the best interest of this planet’s people at heart you’ve gone
native that’s disgusting whoa damn dude dang oh my god whoa made a Death Star out of the moon such a cool formatting
of villain and escalation wow whenever sci-fi movies like crack
broken moon Yeah crack the moon like that is I always find especially kind of
eerie and disturbing yeah what an impact a common image i didn’t realize Kryptonian
fashion was so popular everything it’s a new world mr kent I wanted to go back to the
dress and the pearls so this is where Superman hides you choose to disguise your greatness
have you no dignity my man’s a Zelda fan i’m not Superman call Superman with your signal
watch where are you going nose bleed i got to get to the school nurse this degrading
impersonation will cease reveal your Kryptonian colors on i feel so oh no oh Lex
going to come in handy for this isn’t he oh thump your naked hands away from her put
some gloves on man i can’t fly why do I feel so weak you said you retraced the
path my ship took to get to Earth that means you passed through Krypton’s debris
field the minerals in your bodies have been slowly turning to kryptonite
whoa i don’t need help not from you i can’t see dang so many turns and twist
comfortable you can feel the cliffhanger issue moments i can’t neutralize the kryptonite in your
bodies after everything we’ve done you still show us kindness we were real dicks back there really
tried to ruin everything you love there’s a way to save us both surely you’ve thought of it yes uhoh
but it has to be your choice i’ll try to find a way to cure you but your own time is short do what
you must do what you must a us to the Phantom Zone are you like frozen in form there yeah basically
like time doesn’t pass so that they’ll be in stasis kind of walk off into the not sunset
forgiveness it is a human virtue mixing the perfect cocktail i’m dying the world is yours
all the things you said you would have done to benefit humanity if I hadn’t been in your way
now’s the time to prove it lex I know there’s good yeah it’s great yeah jesus some slimy
spit hydray man something wrong what a shot oh me everything I needed to know so I could go
on without you the shorter cape really works in animation i just hope I’ve shown
them the same oh Krypton Flower lex Lemonade wow well okay what’s
the plan here get away from me Padre you stink of the rat like the
most elitist man to ever whoa wowee nope you’ve just unleashed him you knuckle

experienced Allstar Superman in animation for the very first time i would like to thank the
fine folks at Prepper for making this possible for getting this on the YouTubes we very much
appreciate them uh as I said at the top head over to Patreon if you want to watch it synced but
also check out rejectationshop.com for some sweet sweet threads you too can have wardrobe changes
like Superman uh we got some Patreon questions we do in fact start with those and then review
this masterpiece alrighty so starting off with Darth Mayare thank you for stoking the fires
of conversation for Allstar Superman hello John and Coy glad to see you both enjoying more DC
content i was wondering for both of you what makes Superman a compelling character what aspects
of him would you like to see more on the big screen things like him being a journalist farmer
or father are aspects of him I’ve enjoyed seeing in shows like Smallville or Superman and Lois
and in this movie we get to see him use more of his intellect which I enjoy because Superman is
a highly intelligent character which doesn’t get highlighted much that’s a solid point in fact what
was I guess partly re revvelvatory for me because especially watching this now I’m like I definitely
I didn’t reread going into this partly because I was like I’ll reread after and before the James
Gun movie uh you know just to so I don’t so I can go into this as fresh as possible and uh you
know a lot of my memory is just like clear on gone so like one of the loveliest things about this
is that yeah like partway in I was I started to realize like oh this is just a bunch of scenes
with characters for the most part and then we have like a couple of very physical threats but
they’re more like interludes it’s not really like a Superman story that’s like heavily predicated
on like there’s a big physical fight we need to go take care of that’s ongoing throughout the whole
movie it’s yeah more about the stakes of he’s got he doesn’t have much time and there are a bunch
of sort of competing factors at play you know in the jeopardy of you know earth at the moment uh
and so yeah I really liked this story’s emphasis on Superman both as Cal and Clark as a character
as a person and like the fact that he knows he’s dying changes the demeanor in the way he interacts
with Lois with Lex with everybody um yeah i mean to to briefly touch on one of my favorite parts
about this story is that it feels like an old um golden age serial like it feels very before
comics were what they are today format-wise um but as far as Superman I have said it before but
I think it’s very pertinent to this question i think I like Superman more and more every year
I grew up like when I was a kid I liked the edgy characters i actually to be fair when I started
liking comics I liked Superman i mean I liked Spider-Man i liked X-Men i like Batman those were
my big three and like Batman was just always cool x-men were always different spider-man was always
funny like the fundamentals of those things when you’re like three those were really foundational
superman I had phases of liking because of like what he represented but it wasn’t until I was in
my 20s that I went from oh I like Superman as like I appreciate him but I don’t identify with him and
then like in my late 20s I started liking him and identifying with him and now every year I find
the goodness isn’t old-fashioned so as much as I like him having an intellect as much as I like
him having any number of those you know things that add up to who Clark Kent and Superman
is for me it’s just the anchor of it’s not old-fashioned to be good for the sake of good
it’s not boring to seek the best and I think that is something that as the world gets darker
the brightness of Superman is more important so as I get more frustrated with the world and
more plugged into the world and more cynical it keeps me tethered into the optimism I try to
keep because I’m an optimist and that’s harder and harder and so Superman is is that to me so
it’s not about anything he does it’s about who he is yeah yeah absolutely and I mean I feel like
what I find compelling about a Superman so I think that’s a really cool point and I think I would
agree because Yeah it’s like when you’re a young person and you’re coming of age and stuff you
know uh you you get enamored by the cool flashy things and yeah I always find part of what is most
charming and most affecting about Superman stories that I’ve been exposed to is Yeah is I feel like
I don’t know the more the more we watch these the more I sort of feel as though there is there’s the
difference between Marvel and DC of you’re looking up versus looking down but like Superman in so
many ways kind of represents a sort of Parker Luckish thing to me where it’s like it’s just a
guy doing his best to be as in as many places as he can and he’s trying to protect all the people
who are important to him and you can’t do all of those things so you have to choose wisely and you
have to you know choose goodness even when you have every excuse not to um and to see him in this
movie in a in a sort of state of not resign but just like acceptance of mortality is interesting
because it gives him a different vibe than I’m used to and I yeah I get that people often cite
the sort of like a boy scout character is kind of boring but I feel like when Superman stories for
me are really firing it’s like no like I don’t know it’s a very relatable motivation to want to
look out for people and do the right thing and to rise to the occasion again in a world that is
providing you with every excuse to not reach for those heights sure and so yeah like it I get
the inspiration factor of like damn you know as as fanciful and science fiction as these
stories can be like yeah this is the everyday struggle of like life is hard enough and it’s as
enough coordination and even without superpowers sometimes it just feels like you’re hearing and
seeing everything and you can’t block it all out and you can’t create clarity in order to just
achieve either your own goals or you know help the people around you thrive or at least you know not
be subject to tyranny or or harm or whatever it is and yeah like I can get down with a very physical
Superman story that has a lot of action but uh I I really do love a take that yeah like
allows the character the person and the dual nature of the guy to shine and two when you get to
Yeah kind of relish in the contrast between Clark and Superman um yeah i I I I hope I didn’t lose
the plot of this question but I mean yeah I like seeing the human asp I I like any Superman story
that doesn’t seem like it’s trying to rush past all the character elements to get to some punching
yeah agree you know uh so yeah like and and two one where in especially when he’s up against
Lex and and especially in this story like yeah this wasn’t there was a lot of like fun in games
in a way and a lot of like random annoyance you know Samson and and Atlas show up to just kind
of like be a nuisance i like that it feel felt like issues it felt so serialized and they did
I was really worried about how they’d translate i was really afraid that a narrative film would
try to make that story a three-act structure and that wouldn’t work yeah and and like too the
I think the human characters around him help it’s like whenever he’s with and Kent there’s
that wholesome quality and there’s also that sort of burd I often find in those scenes with the
wholesome and also the burden of choosing better and living up to ideals and morals and standards
and whatnot and then when you’re like with a lowest type of character you’re with more of the
edge you know you’re you’re with somebody who is a little bit more cunning and who maybe you know not
always uh doing everything by the book but someone who still has that sort of good nature at heart
like yeah I think a good Superman story is often elevated character-wise superman as a character
is flavored by his core people and also yeah by the ideals and by the intellect and whatnot um
next Q is from Joseph Brown for John and Koi what are your favorite This will be a Koi question
what are your favorite Grant Morrison comics and which one do you hope most will be adapted into
animation i I think Grant Morrison’s one of the all-time greats i think he’s an absolute genius
i He’s doing and this is a big deal are you ready hang on the edge of my Marvel and DC haven’t in 20
years oo Grant Morrison is writing are you ready deadpool versus Batman wa it’s going to be insane
that is the comic book i’m so excited for the now i’m so excited uh Graham Morrison uh he wrote
New X-Men which is my one of my favorite runs of all time he wrote one of my favorite singular
volumes of comics ever if I was to to give anyone 10 comic books to show the array of major comics
one of them would be Grant Morrison’s Animal Man okay grant Morrison’s Animal Man rocked me so much
as a teen and then I then I didn’t touch it for like 10 years because I just like loved it and I
didn’t want to I read a lot of comics so I don’t need to reread the ones but then I was in my 20s
like 28 and I was like you know it’s time and I reread Animal Man i was like it’s better uh Animal
Man’s so good and it’s should that’s a character that shouldn’t work and the the the the way the
metanus works is so genius uh it’s a comic that I can’t wait to to show my unborn children like
I I can’t wait to be like this is what comics can be um so that’s that’s a big one for me um I’m
just I’m a big Grant Morrison fan in general but Allstar Superman I didn’t used to like nearly
as much as I like now when it first came out I didn’t have a connection to Superman in the same
way like I was talking about so this has become one but Animal Man always I’ve always loved Animal
his take and uh his new X-Men is is pretty special did he do the New 52 Animal Man that was one
of the When they did the New 52 for whatever reason I remember specifically hearing people say
that Animal Man was a particularly good title out of that i don’t think he did the New 52 his one
was when there was the thing called the British invasion when Alan Moore Grant Morrison a bunch
of the Brits his Animal Man was from like the late ‘7s and it was so good okay it was like when
Alan Moore was doing V and that like Watchmen era and that Animal Man like was a golden age hero
that he modernized then that actually is even more applicable now fun highly recommend it i didn’t
actually realize that I would have an answer for this but actually now that I I in the back of my
mind I was like hang on a minute i got one i got a Graham Morrison i know a fave of mine I think
has the name thoroughly attached and I have just looked it up to verify and yes in fact if you’ve
been watching these recent uh iterations of our DC animated you’ve probably heard me mention Arkham
Asylum correct serious House on Serious Earth uh I promise to read more comics so I’m not as much of
a broken record but that’s a great comic i adore that book though i love that book one from memory
yeah the way that story is told and unfolds but also uh the artwork that goes along with it it was
one of those books I remember picking up from the library ages ago when Greg and I would go on like
little pilgrimages to the library to like grab a new comic or whatever and it’s where I read a lot
of stuff and uh that book recontextualized to me what comic book artwork and storytelling could be
and it’s one I often think about when everyone’s like “Whoa what would you want to see adapted?”
I’m like “That one.” and uh to come to find like I’m one thing I would love to do if given the
time and a more succinct version of having an attention span is to like you know soak in authors
you know like read a handful of ones by this guy or that guy or whoever and uh you know really
sort of drink those in but that would be mine for sure cuz again if you could transcribe that
art style along with what that story is I would be on cloud 10 he came to one of my birthdays once
and I lost mind grant Morrison showed up at I had a crazy crazy birthday that was like a ball like
we had a gala ball uh and Grant Morrison came and I didn’t know how to react and I happened to be
on a stripper pull spinning at the time and so I just kept like dancing on the stripper pole while
being like how is Grant Morrison here and then we had a really amazing long conversation about X-Men
and the importance of like the voices for each it was like the coolest birthday present hell yeah it
was so special that is that I don’t know how you could ever have another birthday while it I got my
birthday party too jim Stling giving me a Thanos wishing me happy birthday in pencil drawing happy
birthday from Thanos is can’t be that mad pretty crazy i’ve had some good birthdays with comic
legends i’m also excited just just on the heels of this to go look at my shelf now and go like
“Oh that was Grandius.” You know like I’m sure I’ve read more than just that also we got comics
guy just responding to this comment i figure I’ll I’ll work you in here too always wanted to see an
animated series based on W3 do we know what this is Koi i think W3 i think the crew that animated
Scavenger’s Reign would match Quit Le’s style well also his Animal Man run would be wild to see
animated but that would have to be a series since the movie wouldn’t even scratch the surface i have
never read this but it looks awesome it’s Grant Morrison and Frank Quietly doing animal stuff for
Vertigo cool so is it Wii3 I guess yeah you just showed me a new comic good sir thank you thank you
comics guy aptly named living up to your living up to your name that is cool comics guy heck yeah
and then I believe uh our last one for today is from Sci-Fi Extremist seen your name popping up a
few times in these Q&A thank you so much for John and Koi knowing that James Knowing that Jimmy Guns
has stated Allstar Superman is an influence on his Superman do you think there will be any specific
moments in the movie where we will be the Leo meme pointing at the screen other than the robots
of course or do you think that the influence on the movie is more in tone and character than
actual scenes taken from the book i think it’ll be more tone and character but I do think he will
also give us some little things i as of filming this have not seen Superman so I’m not this is
a guess i would assume he’d have the Sunater in there i think we’ll get James Gunn seems the type
to add a crazy creature that’s getting like you know throw sunmelt like that felt so James Gun uh
so I think that um I assume we’ll get some of the imagery that are like the comic covers and if not
the the the the story elements but like reframed in a way like there are some moments in this that
I was like “Oh that’s the cover i think he’ll play around with that.” Um I don’t think we’ll see like
Lois in a suit and like I don’t think we’ll get you know a dying Superman but I do think um the
creatures and uh the actual Fortress of Solitude I think we’ll see some elements that Frank Quitly
added like the Titanic i was going to say are we going to see a Titan i think is the big question
that is the question one more i’m just making sure we don’t have any more okay great i think Oh
that was three that was a third our goal was three uh well let’s talk about this movie real quick
before we wrap out of here um I did not I have high expectations not going to lie to you uh
I was really worried about All Star Superman because it is so by its nature not linear it is
so like the story connects but it connects so tenuously and then it has a resolution but it’s
not a traditional three-act structure it’s not a traditional graphic novel it’s not a traditional
story it is like those old comics where it’s like this adventure this adventure oh we found a way
to make it relate but with an intent like those did not have much goo glue or goo together but
this was like a perfect middle ground between modern comics and like old ‘ 40s comics and so I
was really worried when you animate that what’s that feel like um and admittedly I didn’t want to
reread this before the Superman movie because I I will already be Leo point but I also don’t want to
be doing a thing where I’m thinking um oh that’s missing or oh I’m looking for that um and and I
think some of the rumors when the when there’s talks of a movie it sucks because then you go oh
I wish that rumor was true or I wish there wasn’t rumor wasn’t true so I was afraid to reread the
comic that I know is tonally based um but seeing this animated movie without having read the comic
in so long was really cool because I did get to have some surprises like I forgot about paranoid
Lois Lane writing an article and like then the the fun little like how long has that been on
that mind’s eye was really cool and different um and there were a couple little like extra
elements I had missed so this was a lot of fun yeah man like again this seems like such a seinal
Superman story and anything it’s weird these DC I think movies we’ve commented a lot on being
very conscientious in how they blend together in such a short amount of time a lot of different
elements that you know make up what am I trying to say they’re good at typically making a story feel
well-rounded in not a ton of time in a format you know is drawing from a vast source material and so
yeah coming back into this after so long was fun because like I didn’t really my recollection
was was foggy enough that I was like I’m I’m not really sure what kind of story to expect and
part of me expected something that was like more classic in a way so it was cool to be then thrown
into this like “Oh damn samson and Atlas are here and now we’re competing for Lois’s affections and
now Lois has powers for a day and now Lex is over here plotting and he’s got this niece chick around
and then we’re got this big sun monster and like it’s really cool cuz it in a way and a lot of
we’ve watched a lot of these now so like the shared intersection that these worlds often amount
to is is well ingrained but something like this I thought actually had like a higher degree of that
than I’m even used to seeing in some of these i feel like a lot of these animated movies you know
pick a a few things to focus on and you kind of focus on that whereas this did feel like one big
story but amalgamated yeah out of episodes rather than one act a second act and the third act and
so I really liked the sort of journey of this and the flavors of this and yeah the way it felt like
following a guy on his last days as he both does what his duty instructs you know with the time he
has left but also as he tries to make good on just some life moments and things like that so having
him and Lois bonding on his terms and having it be that yeah he reveals his super identity here and
you know there’s a bit of a debate about that but you know ultimately it gives way to you know this
really lovely day that they get to share together and then you get this you know battle of wits
between him and Lex and all the other competing factors like yeah it was it was fun because I
felt like I was sort of whisked off on a ride and after a certain amount of time I was sort of
like I don’t I don’t know exactly where this is going to go and Who am I where am I yeah and it’s
adapted out of a book that I I imagine had things trimmed and and consolidated and and you know
adjusted i got a lot of the juice though um but yeah it felt nicely rounded and I liked the tone
of this like this had a unique again given that it is such a particular and wellrecoognized story
it did feel like it had its own kind of tone amid the array of Superman flavors that we’ve seen in
our animated journey up until now i found myself in the tone you’re speaking of like in a sense of
wonder like which I which I don’t always feel like you know it’s fun to watch these and it’s exciting
and it’s action-packed and like the writing’s good and zippy like all the things you want out of
a comic but with this one I had a sense of like awe and wonder and that was really cool cuz that’s
the character so I I found myself like forgetting to react verbally cuz I was just like whoa like
it was really cool to have that scope and one of my favorite things from the comic is um man
this is like there’s no way to say this without just saying it i enjoy mushrooms uh and I really
enjoy There’s so many ways to cook them you can do shiakei you can have that umami flavor you can put
them so I enjoy a nice um you know uh uh vegetable and I found that so does Grant Morrison and that
shows in his epiphany of Lex Luthther and so I as someone who it’s all connected as someone who
has had that moment and as someone here together as someone who’s seen those those you know uh
you said even fractals and I love the idea of like equating gravity to anyway as someone who has
had the moment of connectivity and uh universality that gave me benevolence i credit those by the
way for a lot of my optimism i’m not kidding so to have Alex Luther in the comic have that uh it
really was cool to see with a performance because I’ve only read that like so you’re directing
it in your head you’re acting those dialogue out but it’s still reading so it was really fun
when I was reading that you know in my youth and being like and then like when I had that moment
for myself being like oh like the comic and then to see it here like performed I was like this
is nice so uh that that was cool uh I you know I can only hope Nicholas gets to have his moment
in Superman 8 that’s a question I guess is do you think he will get powered up in the text of James
Gun Superman movie not powered i think there’ll be some mech uh I think you know there’ll be there’ll
be some lemech uh but I think we’ll get there like down the journey i wouldn’t want that to happen
so early um but yeah I mean this is one of my favorites I think of the animated yeah this is
really striking and it’s one that I’m actually not that I don’t want to go back and rewatch the
other ones but this is one where part of my brain goes like I kind of want to put this on again and
like reobserve it i want to watch the new movie and then read this comic and then watch it again
i I want to go in the order that I’m not going to be waiting for beats cuz I hadn’t read this in
so long this got to be fresh and I know James Gunn isn’t going to adapt this directly it’s toned
so then after the two adaptations I want to read it again yeah I think that’d be a good idea in
fact that sounds like a perfect way to do it you see this version of it then you go watch Superman
and then you return to the source or a source and then Yeah and then go back and see how this direct
adaptation works do a live stream yeah plus just so many fun uh what was Jimmy doing in the dress
unrevealed it’s for us to I was going to say does the comic book make it clear i That’s actually
a beat I didn’t remember which is funny because it’s such a striking image but now I’m like I
like that my brain was like I think that means I must have been like Jimmy Hy Jinx cuz he like
turns into a turtle and stuff like Jimmy’s like a crazy character uh Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsson by
Matt Fraction is one of the greatest modern comics period for like this kind of tone and insanity
and that felt like a beat where it was like you finished a Jimmy Olsson issue and then you’re
catching up on Superman already in progress so they don’t explain it cuz that’s its own adventure
you know what I mean so I really like the beat not knowing so like I don’t So this is a Jimmy Olsen
ccentric comic book where like Superman is off to the side dude Matt Fraction wrote an insane 12
issue maxi series of Jimmy Olsen just like going nuts so excited it’s insane i’m so excited i will
say too I I do appreciate I think one thing people are are getting at when they dog on Superman
maybe is in a roundabout way like this has a sort of space opera kind of quality about it even
though it’s mostly relegated to Earth you still have like yeah these like uh larger than-l life
characters passing by and like some characters are here from different points in time and it’s
like very sci-fi and timy wimy and I feel like that’s a in conversation I just get this gist that
that’s an element of Superman that people probably overlook in favor of pointing to he’s saving cats
from trees he’s an insane sci-fi character and that’s a thing I think is really as much as people
look at James Gun’s upcoming Superman and go is it going to be too much i’m like I’m actually kind
of excited to see in a day and age where so many things have been brought down to earth and and I
like stuff about Man of Steel certainly but you know that’s much more trying to be like grounded
in Earth physics and Earth vibes and all that all that Dark Knight [ __ ] that we have to do now um
and the Superman you know as again space opera big sort of crazy sci-fi thing I think is actually a
vibe I’m excited to see embodied more on screen and I I have this hope in the back of my mind
i think we did like a massive overcorrection from Joel Schumacher days and I feel like
a little bit of that wness and that sort of uh whimsy could could be a benefit i do i feel and
honestly I agree i think we did Shoemacher over correct to gritty and I love dark and gritty i I
like grounded heroes more like I’m a street level hero guy but not every character is made for that
so I think right now what DCU is doing is it’s kind of like swinging the pendulum the other way
and I don’t think they’re going to swing as high as we went high of nipples yeah we’re not doing
we’re not going there but if the highest darkest grittius is like up here I don’t think we’re going
to go as high in the absurdest but I think going in that direction of sci-fi grandiose is needed to
keep things fresh and finally I guess just to cap us off um Abienstein Arts asks as a little kod
here what power makes this Superman special to y’all mine personally is that he’s not affected
by kryptonite because in the comics he’s overly exposed to the sun rays um yeah which they do
here in a fun way uh I think I I always really liked and I liked it again and how they did it
here um like the the three times power also meant three times empathy three times intelligence
three like I like that it isn’t just a power set that gets upped cuz Superman’s ability
to process data is also heightened because he’s Superman but then that’s also heightened
because he’s overpowered so I liked the processing uh of like what that would be for all things
yeah that’s a great answer i I don’t think I could answer better i think uh the only thing I’ll
throw in is uh I just loved the acknowledgement here of the the brief interrogation of like wait
a minute but how are you Superman when you were helping out Clark in in court or whatever I
was like Batman how are you Superman here a robot so like I don’t know being I think that’s
an element that doesn’t it’s an element of fun it’s weird like I feel like those elements of
fun can be often overlooked in Superman stuff and I’m like that it just reminded me of something
else to appreciate about the joy of beholding the more whimsical aspects of a character like this
and two just yeah his conscientiousness it’s not really like in his characterization but the way
like yeah he’s showing Lois his like confiscated room of weapons and you know thinks to bring
the gravity gun because the gravity is going to accelerate the time thing like his intellect
really stood out here and uh two I really liked his super thoughtfulness in making her like I love
that reversal of like oh my god his secret torture lab and then it turns out I’m just making you
a nice gift gases caused the super suit yeah I loved all that yeah so like I I’m used to seeing
the tender side through Clark so it was cool to see the tender side through Superman yeah and
check off Gravity Gun uh that was uh all the fun really enjoyed Allstar Superman please let us
know in the comments below what you think uh I I love the question of what we think we might see
incorporated into the Superman film i definitely I threw mine in there i’d love to read yours
below so what do you think we might see this is not going to be adapted but totally and certain
elements that might get the Leo point i’d love to see your Leo point ideas in the comments below as
always we’re going to be doing more of these so let us know in the comments what other things you
want us to watch in the DC animated pantheon love reading them love acting on them uh also press

ONE OF THE MAJOR INSPIRATIONS FOR JAMES GUNN’S SUPERMAN!! All Star Superman Full Reaction Watch Along: https://www.patreon.com/thereelrejects
– Save & Invest In Your Future Today, visit: https://www.acorns.com/rejects
With the DCU’s flagship Superman film A MONTH AWAY, Coy & John continue their road to Metropolis with their All Star Superman Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis, & Spoiler Review!!
Join Coy Jandreau & John Humphrey as they celebrate the Man of Steel in All Star Superman (2011), the acclaimed DC animated adaptation of Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely’s beloved comic. When Superman (voiced by James Denton of Desperate Housewives and Good Christian Belles) absorbs a lethal overdose of solar radiation saving a U.S. space mission, he learns he has only days left to live—but not before completing twelve “super” tasks for humanity.
Alongside Clark Kent’s heartfelt romance with Lois Lane (Christina Hendricks, Mad Men, Drive), we see Lex Luthor (Anthony LaPaglia, Without a Trace, Frasier) unleash a diabolical plot to capture the bottled city of Kandor, and Perry White (Edward Asner, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Up) struggle to keep the Daily Planet printing under cosmic threat. Standout moments include Superman’s solar recharge chamber scenes, his bittersweet gift of temporary powers to Jimmy Olsen (Matthew Gray Gubler, Criminal Minds), and the climactic showdown where the dying hero still finds hope in saving the world.

No Zibarro 🙁
OH YES 🔥🔥🔥 glad yall tuned into this one
All Star is one of the most overrated books/stories. I've never been a fan. The sun being the cause of his death, just doesn't work for me. I get that it's an elseworlds story, but still. This should have caused him to basically become Superman Prime.. not kill him. For Tomorrow, Brainiac, Justice, Kingdom Come are more along the lines of what I like. That being said, the animation and voice acting in this is great.
Wonder if you guys will ever watch Caped Crusader
I love this story. But over the years I've become critical of stories where Superman dies. I prefer him giving up his powers and retiring.
Superman/batman public enemies, Superman/batman Apocalypse, Superman and Shazam vs black Adam please
I’m just now finding out this movie exists after reading the comics
After watching this with you guys I hope James Gunn Superman is half as good as this one of the best depictions of the man of steel understands what it means to be human and the way the world is right now something we desperately need
We needed an all star batman movie 😁
"sometimes ya gotta rip a brain out" had me laughing so hard lol
If you haven’t already please go watch Superman And Lois every season is fantastic and has some of the best storytelling in the show. Fantastic writing for Superman/clark Kent and various other characters as well.
Weird thing about this movie Superman's short Cape over shoulder
Another great watch along team.
Now we just need an animated version of All-Star Batman and Robin – The Boy Wonder.
Great story, lovely adaptation, only wish it could have been a double-feature like how they adapted THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS. It deserved that. I chatted with Dwayne McDuffy at the premiere event for this movie and he mentioned that the major reason the Bizarro chapters were removed was because their backwards dialogue was too rough to understand in audio and get the jokes. And they didn't have enough time to totally rework those chapters, so it was decided to shut those chapters down. He was sad to see it and the Smallville chapter go.
homie just blessed him after sneezing lol 30:20
Superman one million
Batman/Superman: Apocalypse would be cool
Try Superman – Red Sun
If you can answer or accept a response to an "unanswerable question", how is it unanswerable?
🐳😊Am I the only one who still thinks ultraman will be parasite and not bizarro🐋
There you go. All Star Superman has colorful, goofy, weird, comicbook-ey sci-fi. Superman getting his ass beat. Cheesy, campy, funny characters. This is clearly visible in James Gunn's Superman.
People are too stuck-up on Man of Steel and then yap about comicbook accuracy.
20:11 knowledge is power .
20:49 noo!!!! Not Avatar Roku island.
read the comics because people kept saying this is the best superman storyline. read it and I was disappointed. that's it?
i was expecting something epic and heartfelt. I got nothing.
Ip man 4 plz
The Kryptonian language on superman journal is from Smallville.
I love this animated movie! So glad you guys are watching this with us. 🎨 🎥 Now we need you both to react to the Sci-fi Channel series KRYPTON (2018). It only had two seasons, but stands in production quality as a hidden gem that a majority of Superman fans have never experienced.👍
Power of hope 🙏
