Three-parters like “The Last Son of Krypton” and “World’s Finest” are worth the price of admission alone, whereas two-parters such as “Blasts from the Past,” “Apokolips…Now!,” and “Legacy” are masterpieces in their own right.īonus features are plentiful, though only one, “Superman: Timeless Icon,” is new to this box set.

In my view, this series excelled most during its multi-part episodes. Oh yeah, this is also where seeds were planted for the larger DC Animated Universe, as Batman, Green Lantern Kyle Rayner, the Flash, and Aquaman each put in guest appearances.

Additionally, this series introduced Livewire to us all, an evildoer who has since made her way to comics and live-action TV shows like Smallville and Supergirl. These interpretations of Lex Luthor, Metallo, Brainiac, and Darkseid likely still remain the definitive portrayals in the minds of fans the world over. I’m still amazed by how not just Kal-El was redefined by this venture, but his villains as well. Parents could do worse than showing this to their kids in order to get them on the bandwagon. It’s no doubt safe to say that many lifelong Superman fans were made by watching this show, and I’m sure that tradition continues today. In other words, it found a middle ground between putting a fresh spin on a timeless icon while also adapting comic book material in a more faithful manner than anything that came before. If there’s anything that Superman: The Animated Series accomplished for its titular character was that it did for him what Batman: TAS did for the Dark Knight. Then again, this could vary over the course of the series. Maybe it’s just me, but I found that sound volume jumped a notch once episode 4 rolled around. Colors are just a brilliant as they were on the Batman: TAS and Batman Beyond Blu-rays, so those of you who were on the fence when it came to upgrading from DVD now have your incentive to do so. To provide a little more context, 54 episodes have been painstakingly remastered and presented in the original 4:3 aspect ratio. I’m probably not alone in saying that the Man of Steel’s animated adventures from the 1990s were long overdue for HD treatment. POSITIVESįollowing in the recent footsteps of Batman: The Animated Series and Batman Beyond when it comes to souped-up Blu-ray box sets, here comes Superman: The Complete Animated Series. Premiering on September 6, 1996, the series continued WBA’s dominance in Super Hero animation, once again setting new standards for storytelling, art direction and acting performances – and garnering 11 Emmy Award nominations and two Emmy Award wins, including top honors as the Outstanding Special Class Animated Program of 1998. Producers Bruce Timm, Paul Dini and Alan Burnett elevated The Man of Steel’s animated presence with an imaginative, heartfelt look at Superman’s adventures in Metropolis alongside Lois Lane and opposite the villainous likes of Lex Luthor, Brainiac, Darkseid and more. Animation (WBA), the Emmy Award-winning Superman: The Animated Series was the perfect follow-up to the landmark Batman: the Animated Series.
