Earlier this week My Adventures With Superman finally made its debut on screens in North America. Now our friends at Adult Swim have dropped the full first episode on YouTube for fans around the globe to join in on the action.
In our four-star review of the series we said “My Adventures With Superman is off to a brilliant start. These seven episodes feature some of the most exciting and consistent storytelling in animation. Teamed with a dynamic cast and exciting visual style and the series looks set to become an instant classic.”
Watch the episode in full – globally – in the player below:
The series is a serialised coming-of-age story catching up with twenty-somethings Clark Kent, the bright and driven Lois Lane, and their best friend Jimmy Olsen as they begin to discover who they are and everything they can accomplish together as an investigative reporting team at the Daily Planet. The story follows Clark as he builds his secret identity as Superman and explores his own mysterious origins. Lois, on her way to becoming a star reporter, teams up with photographer Jimmy Olsen to break the stories that matter. All the while, Clark and Lois are falling in love… as Lois gets closer and closer to uncovering his secret identity! Our trio share adventures, take down bad guys, stumble over secrets, and discover what it means to be heroes in their own right.
Sam Register (“Teen Titans Go!”) serves as executive producer. Jake Wyatt (“Invader Zim: Enter the Florpus”) and Brendan Clogher (“Voltron: Legendary Defender”) are on board as co-executive producers and Josie Campbell (“She-Ra and the Princesses of Power”) as co-producer.
New episode will debut every Thursday at midnight on Adult Swim and next day on Max. We’ll keep you posted on the series’ full UK premiere.
