Finally, a good part of the year. I hope you all have a good one. Also, if you have a birthday this month (it is one of the months with most births), that means your parents got busy around Christmastime. Now you know.

Me in 2009: "Croc, huh? I wonder how campy he looks on th- HOLY CRAP he's terrifying."

Mr. Mxy is arguably my favorite Superman villain. I love the character. That clip gets him pretty right in terms of his light-heartedness. He's like that 90% of the time, but if you make him angry he'll turn into a Lovecraftian horror.

Is watching famous YouTube streamers who have been doing it for a very long time, and now they are completely different people from when they started. They were so energetic and full of life ten years ago playing video games for views. And now they are grown men who groan their way through the games as if they are a recently divorced man who just moved back into an apartment.

A rare screenwriter flex.

These. I question the judgement of anyone who makes or shares one.

So far, so good.

I've watched before, but it's been years ago. This thread gives me the excuse to look it up and re-watch.

I thought the giant robots had a Neon Genesis Evangelion feel to them..

My Adventures with Superman has some "word of mouth" attention going on. I see people bringing it up on social media when we're talking about unrelated things. I kind of like where it's going.

I like this list a lot. Good job. I am going to add a really wild card one. An Adult Swim adaption of Soul Plumber (2021-2022). It has nothing to do with superheroes, and it was a surprise hit when it came out. At the comic shop I worked at, it was the most requested DC book on the weeks it was released. It's definitely not for kids by the way. Imagine Ghostbusters but with a ton of gross-out humor.

One of the best things about the R-rated Harley Quinn cartoon is that Batman is interpreted as dumb and incompetent. It's hilarious, but also a completely different version of Batman that exists on his own..

The RWBY version is a completely unique version of Batman. He's not supposed to be a tough guy in this universe. I find comics are more enjoyable when you have the least amount of pre-expectations as possible.
