Mixed feelings about that Superman costume. Maybe it looks better in motion.

Not reading all these pages, but I'm pretty happy about this.
Probably not something I'm gonna watch, at least not anytime soon. I don't have HBOMax and I don't think CN is included in any of my streaming apps (I do have a bunch tho, so maybe?) but this looks like the kind of cartoon my daughter would love, and that I'd love watching with her. I'll wait for the blu-ray if I can't access it online but either way, this is looking like something that'll end up in my house.
I like the art style, but at the same time I don't. Compared to the anime stuff my daughter watches, like My Hero Academia, it looks pretty weak. But it does look energetic and fun and I like the promo piece they went with; it's unusual but really tells you a lot about who these characters are at a glance.
And a *young* Clark Kent instead of Superdad? I will happily take that!
Seems like Lois might be biracial or Asian American, which is great. Jimmy being black is...fine, I guess? I'm kinda tired of the secondary supporting characters (ie; not that important) being the ones to get racebent, and I don't like racebending as a general rule anyway, but we definitely needed more color in Clark's cast so I'm gonna support the choice, even if this kinda thing usually feels like pandering to me.
Gonna take a moment to give silent thanks to whoever made this happen.

Been far too long since Clark had a cartoon. I wish the show a long and successful run!

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSS SSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!
This looks amazing! Nitpicks - I disagree with the person saying race bending Jimmy is a good thing instead of pushing actual POC Superman characters like Steel, I disagree with the people who say this looks like anime because I watch anime and this ain't that. But honestly I don't care because holy crap we're actually getting Superman content that looks good and like something I might enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes yes yes yes yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I like that promo picture of high energy Lois and loveable teddy bear Clark, it just looks so darn good and cute!!!! I love it!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry for all the exclamation points, but as a Superman fan who hasn't been crazy with recent media depictions (DCEU, S&L, reboot news), it's just so good to see something like this. This looks like what I've wanted all along! Finally!
The art style reminds me more of She-Ra (which did have a bit of an anime influence) than anything else.
Wait a minute the guy who plays Wee Hughie (Jack Quaid) in The Boys is voicing Clark lmao that’s great. Also the guy who was one of the heads on Voltron will be leading this apparently? I never watched Voltron, but that means the action should be good right?

I have zero issues with making Jimmy Olsen black, but why not still have him be a redhead? Black people with red hair exist.
