In development since 2021, My Adventures with Superman premiered on Adult Swim yesterday and I watched the first episode today via the Adult Swim app.
On their first day as Daily Planet interns Clark Kent (Jack Quaid) and Jimmy Olsen (Ishmel Sahid) meet slightly more seasoned intern Lois Lane (Alice Lee). Lois is tasked with showing Clark and Jimmy how to make copies. Instead, already on the scent of a huge story, she cons them into helping her.
This telling of the famous trio's beginnings distinguishes itself in that Clark and Jimmy are roommates. Though Clark tries to hide his powers, he can't look past people (or pets) in peril, and you gather Jimmy is keen to prove the existence of aliens, cryptids, and other oddities because he's been living with Clark.
Jimmy and Lois talk fast and frequently and Sahid and Lee are up to the task. Meanwhile, despite knowing Jack Quaid's voice as Star Trek: Lower Decks' Brad Boimler and previous smaller roles in DC animated movies, I find his Clark fresh.
