DCAU Darkseid was the first cartoon villain to terrify me.
The guy's an utter monster and I love every minute of it.

He was amazing, his meeting with Superman, when he just wrecks him with his omega beams and says "That's who I am" as he casually walks through the tube without even bothering to finish Superman is amazing.

Michael Ironside's voice is half the reason, the other hald was the GOAT art style.

Yes, fucking awesome. Just as good as New Adventures of Batman and Robin and is the poster child of what every Superman cartoon should aspire to be like. Also, Lobo shows up in an episode and is absolutely fucking fantastic.

This is also a great measure as to where people saw Superman back then. This is back when the Superman v Goku thing really got started and if any of you have ever read the Wizards article it didn't start out great for the Man o' Steel.

the creators openly admitted they prefer batman more, were often at a loss when trying to come up with story ideas for superman, and only made the show at all because it was mandatory for them also getting to make batman

you are now aware that a much of batman fans who were largely meh o superman still approached him with more respect and forethought than Snyder

Yeah, Superman TAS is a great show but Batman TAS has higher highs and lower lows. By STAS they had ironed out a lot of the production issues that plagued BTAS and so were able to put out a more consistent show.

I remember them talking about it, how Superman's themes should always have trumpets and such because it makes it triumphant and powerful

Good show, sets up the base work for JL and JLU, and the voice acting is goddly. Although i'm sad supermans voice actor left after Stas but the JLU one grew on me a lot towards the end.

It never said that the Kents were pro-guns. As someone who lives in England, I can tell you that they have guns because they are farmers. All farmers, regardless of their thoughts on gun control will own a gun. You need to be able to protect your livestock from wild animals and assholes trying to steal them.

In an episode of Justice League Superman ended up killing Darkside on the same planetoid Brainic had set up shop in, which was subsequently destroyed. When Luthor went looking to resurrect Brainiac, he got Darkside as well.

Much like the Batman Animated Series is the defining distilled essence of the character, Superman TAS is the same. It's the best interpretation of all the characters.

except Green Lantern. They handled that weirdly.

Nope. George Newburn stayed on after Justice League and into JLU. Then he voiced Superman in other projects, like Injustice and Superman vs. The Elite.

Tim Daly, who voiced him in Superman TAS, also reprised the role for other projects, like Justice League: Doom and the two Superman/Batman animated movies.

Actually, Luthor didn't get Brainiac back at all. Tala, whom Luthor had snubbed as a potential lover, regularly abused, and forced to resurrect Brainiac, decided to screw him over at the last minute by summoning Darkseid instead.
