Everyone always praise Batman: The animated series but why does no one talk about Superman: The animated series?
The theme is amazing, had some of the best versions of characters and I feel that it had kept a high standard troughout the series. Plus, livewire.

yeah it was great, its not talked about as much because, lets me honest, it wasn't as good or memorable as the batman series, and also batman is just more popular in general
Playing the injustice games and superman (and girl) have shot way up in my book only because I can clap serious ass with them, were despite being a bats man myself, all he does in my hands is shoot his hook and flourish his cape.
What language is this?
half-english
To me Batman had the GOAT episodes but also more duds than Super-man. It's logical tough since Batman had more seasons
should've gone more to space, the enemies and threats got very repetitive over time
superman went to apokolips at one point
If you want Superman kino, just watch JLU.
He's not even the best character in that show. Flash, Batman, J'onn, Dr. Fate, Green Arrow, Question, Vigilante, Hawkgirl, Zatanna, and Fire all outshine him.
>Superman is too much of a goody two-shoes
>Villains outside of Metallo, Lex, Darkseid, and Brainiac aren't as memorable or compelling
>Couldn't even get the rights to General Zod (had to replace him with Jax-Ur and Malak)
>Animation, aesthetic, and atmosphere couldn't compare to BTAS
>One of his villains is a moronic version of him
>Too much "will they or won't they" aggravated romantic tension between Clark and Lois
>Gets nerfed afterwards in JL/U
>Ending has him being manipulated by one of the greatest known cosmic threats in the history of the universe, only for him to come around again and enact the Cadmus organization as retaliation towards his actions.
is too much of a goody two-shoes
Stopped reading here.
What an asinine complaint about a superhero, let alone Superman.
How is Batman not a good two shoes? He's too pussy to kill anyone either
Does BTAS even have a really edgy moment of Batman in it?
Not really. He beats the shit out of the creepy guy that turns invisible and stalks his daughter though.
He says hes "sorely tempted" to kill the old guy running a child labour mine. But yknow. Doesnt do it
You're just straight up lying about my boy parasite
Rudy is cool. But then he show sup again in the exact same episode like 4 more times because Superman has no villains.
>Gets nerfed afterwards in JL/U
nah he came pre-nerfed in S:TAS, then got un-nerfed in season 2 of JL and beyond.
>Hurr durr nerf pre-nerf abooga I am Black person!
Shut up! Superman's powers should be inconsistent as frick and serve the story and tension!
He should be able to hear danger on the other side of planet in one episode, and stand behind the window to hear anything in another. Throw in some explanation about how he has to charge more his yellow son levels if you are too much anal sodomite, but it is the way it is!
It's great but it's definitely not as great as Batman. You can feel the way the creators are trying but the material isn't there or they simply aren't as interested. It's still a 9/10 if Batman is a 10/10. It has some amazing highs. If you watch all of the New Gods episodes in a row it tells a complete story.
Supes is iconic for iconic sake; SUPERman being the default SUPERhero.
He's alright and has his fans, although he not near Batman and Spider-Man levels of popularity.
Justice League was better than both of them anyway
JLU had the greatest single Superman story
Which was directly adapted from a comic so I'm not sure why you specified JLU here
it was adapted really well
>Literally the only good adaptation of Alan Moore, ever.
>cuts out the exact right amount of the comic
>Can't adapt the narration "a voice like Armageddon calling his name" so instead has Superman charge Mongul in silence
its kino
alright fair enough
HAPPY?!
BTAS is a dark, brooding film noir masterpiece which is brought to life by Timm's strong sense of art direction and sharp, angular style. It definitely had far more of a lasting impact on the Batman franchise than STAS had on it's own, was a major return to form for Batman too.
I love it. Tim Daly is the voice of superman for me. A lot of the people that voiced him afterwards were also good and he isn't as iconic as Conroys Batman but he has the perfect voice for it.
Too many episodes are just "Dude shows up and superman punches him for 20 minutes" to be as good as BTAS but when its good, STAS is awesome.
A G-rated Lobo SHOULDN'T work, but they make it work. Metallo's first ep made me feel deep emotions as a child (shame they just made him generic villain later). His team up episode with Dr Fate was kino
The Darkseid episodes are in the absolute uber tier of the DCAU.
>had I known one human's death would pain you so, I'd have killed more.
>I am many things, Kal El. But here, I am God.
michael ironside was prime
>In the end, the world didnt need a Superman, just a brave one
Because it's boring.
Its a great show, so are the Justice League cartoons but Batman The Animated Series is the peak, particularly the early seasons when they really busted their ass on the animation. Superman, Justice League and the later seasons of BTAS are still pretty but those first few seasons of BTAS were amazing.
This is why I wasn't upset about the DCU being trash. The DCAU will always be vastly superior.
Remember the original Dan Tuprin funeral scene with all the all the israeli funeral stuff? I don't think they showed that ever again.
She show falls flat on the whole Lois romance. Lois doesn't even like Clark and he barely even talks to her and never makes a move.
I think that in the TASverse, Superman would reveal that he's also Clark Kent to Lois instead of the other way around.
Superman surpasses almost all of cartoons in existence. Batman is great, but Superman TAS is just so consistently good (without the movies included) and possibly the best that Superman has ever been on screen
It’s not as talked about because Batman gets more shilling.
OOOH
SODER!
Nice voice acting and some really fun episodes.
Shouldn’t have nerfed Superman so much.
>wearing a breathing mask in space
Yikes.
Should have done superboy episodes too so we could have had legion of superheroes (besides that one episode appearance)
