    Default What stories are left you want to see as an animated DTV.

    We've had a number of animated Superman movies now adapting various stories. But which stories haven't been made into a movie yet that you wish they will do one day?

    Morrison's Action Comics Volume 2 - Its another origin, but its Best Origin.
    Superman/Wonder Woman by Charles Soule - It just rocks and I want it animated. The duo vs Zod and Faora, vs the Old Gods, it was great.
    Action Comics vol 2 #40 - A wild comedic tale of Superman visiting Bizarro World.
    The Trial of Superman - I've always called this one of if not the most underrated storyline from the triangle era. Just an intriguing idea: a corrupt Tribunal holding Superman accountable for Krypton's destruction because he's the last descendent of bloodline that created the technologies and customs that would eventually doom it.
    The Death of Clark Kent - Conduit was a cool character and interesting villain for Superman due to the personal connections. Would love to see this saga revamped.
    The Dominus Effect - This in particular has all the trappings to be like Into the Spiderverse while teaching a generation of fandom about Superman's incredibly vast history and differentiating incarnations

    Preferably with no connective tissue to anything else at all, completely stand alone projects.

    Something either A) New and original or B) Something I haven't read yet.

    As a rule, all these death and return of Superman... and Dark Knight Returns... Son of Batman... etc. etc. are boring to tears. None of them hold a candle to the books they are copying and I know everything that they're doing before they do it. I'm not a fan of them at all.

    I much prefer the 'original' movies like Green Lantern First FLight and Wonder Woman 2009.

    Now by extension, i also love New Frontier, and that was a book... but i never read it, so it was new to me. But yeah, watching a copy of lesser artwork move that I already have on my shelf??? Pass.

    "Mark my words! This drill will open a hole in the universe. And that hole will become a path for those that follow after us. The dreams of those who have fallen. The hopes of those who will follow. Those two sets of dreams weave together into a double helix, drilling a path towards tomorrow. THAT's Tengen Toppa! THAT'S Gurren Lagann! MY DRILL IS THE DRILL THAT CREATES THE HEAVENS!" - The Digger

    We walk on the path to Secher Nbiw. Though hard fought, we walk the Golden Path.

    Smashes the Klan
    current and sort of just begging for a feature

    Superman and the Legion of Superheroes
    Should already exist

    Superman vs Aliens
    Because I think a movie crossover would be cool

    The Immortal Superman
    I did come to love this story and think it's a wonderful poster boy for its style and era

    K Metal from Krypton
    Another old story, a period piece, that could use an official quality production

    Camelot Falls
    One of those stories that fits perfectly into the DC video market

    World of Krypton/Supergirl saga/Exile
    Maybe in two parts

    Trial of Superman
    As Sacred mentioned somewhat forgotten, but a solid action story

    Gangs of Metropolis
    Because Schultz is my favorite and you can tweak this to standalone easily

    Adventures of Superman (621-23)
    Because Casey is my other favorite and 623 can easily conclude any small arc

    Metropolis SCU/ Superman Adventures #41
    A nice change of pace to develop other characters as well

    Dominus Effect
    The four era adventure, pretty easy win

    One Man JLA
    For the man who has everything I think has been done twice already, right?

    Earth's Final Hour
    Those last few Jurgens stories would be a great feature for Brainiac and Toyman both

    Multiplicity
    A more polished version Elite style would be nice

    Pretty great list here.

    I'll throw in Miracle Monday and, just for kicks, Secret Identity. I'm sick of the origin, but that one's so unique and tells a complete, satisfying narrative.

    A Superman/Aquaman team up would be rad.

    DC Comics Presents #85
    The Sandman Saga

    If I was picking an Aquaman team-up to adapt, I'd say do a Showcase of The Brave and the Bold (Vol. 3) #32.

    It's awesome.

    In addition to what's been mentioned already

    Panic in the Sky - surprised that hasn't been adapted yet
    Superman - Speeding Bullets
    That one Elseworlds where he became a superstar kinda like Michael Jordan
    Emperor Joker
    Superman vs. The Terminator - that was way better than it had any right to be
    Battle for Metropolis - might be hard to do though

    That's a good one!

    I'd do the New 52 Aquaman Annual #2, also.

    I second the ones in bold. Emperor Joke in particular.
