I like it as a kid's intro to Superman, kind of like Justice League Action. Where the 1980s, Saturday morning, hand-drawn animation might feel dated, the character models are top notch.

oh, I forgot that was 80s.

Hell no, dude. Seriously. the 1988 Superman cartoon is not the Animated series from the 1990s which goes into the Justice League cartoons.

the 1988 Superman cartoon show is way different. How do you not know this??

I think the flashback stories in the old 1988 Superman cartoon are better than the main story arcs. I still remember that graduation story where Clark runs off to take care of his gown or to rescue someone or something

wrong frikkin cartoon youre thinking of, Marhawkman

[superduperman]

It is my favorite version of Superman. Even though, being an eighties cartoon, it didn't age well. And, yes, the Family Album segments are more memorable than the actual adventures. And their Wonder Woman design was probably her best animated look.

Lana's dog jumps on him and gets him dirty and he has to put some cows back in a pin and a storm is about to ruin the graduation ceremony. And that was just in one episode! He also had to trade out his gown for a larger one because it was dry clean only. Ma hemmed it to fit but he was still running late.

Today I learned there was a 80's Supes cartoon.

Yes. Mainly because it gave us a great WW episode. The last time she'd be seen until Justice League due to rights issues

It's Superman centered, but has other heroes I guess.

Actually she was the only one to make an appearance. But her design was clearly based on the Perez design for the reboot.
