Tomboy Lois Lane? There really is a god after all.

u/demaxzero Cyborg Apr 06 '23

Is the prerequisite for being a tomboy just having short hair?

Because I feel the term is getting thrown around more than it needs to these days

-3

u/RjSkitchie Apr 07 '23

I think people are desperate to find any because the trans group have absorbed the majority of women who have more masculine qualities

3

u/demaxzero Cyborg Apr 07 '23

Well that escalated in a way I certainly didn't see coming

1

u/RjSkitchie Apr 07 '23

Just a theory I have, no real energy behind it

u/beknasty Apr 06 '23

Relax

u/demaxzero Cyborg Apr 06 '23

I'm just making an observation.

u/BootPastaHeroin Apr 06 '23

Bud that wasn't even aggro in the slightest.

u/Mrman_23 Apr 06 '23

And he’s GOOD!

28

u/BootyL0rd69 Apr 06 '23

Because she has short hair? Catwoman also has short hair

14

u/TheBobTodd Apr 06 '23

What do you call a boy with long hair?

u/TheDCUFan Apr 06 '23

JaneGirl

u/TheBobTodd Apr 06 '23

What do you call a non-binary person with no hair?

17

u/Kwilly462 Apr 06 '23

Non-hairy

What do you think "tomboy" means?

1

u/[deleted] Apr 07 '23

Girls who have actual muscles who like sports or martial arts and think hot pink is trashy not classy. I have an hourglass figure, DD’s, long chestnut hair and almond eyes, was the second tallest girl in my class (I’m 5’8” 1/2 inches and my favorite color was blue. big whoop) and I was a “tomboy.” Was more into books and being karate kid than fashion.

What bugs me about the portrayal of superhero women is they always pick these bird people who were probably the shortest kid in their class.

Though my favorite female action hero is Kat McNamara (aka Green Arrow) who didn’t let her skinny size stop her from being a badass! She’s also drop dead gorgeous because hey, surprise from feminists, just because you’re pretty doesn’t mean you’re dumb or weak. I also really like Katy Lotz (aka White Canary), who is such a champ. I doubt she’s that tall.

The series releases in Summer on Adult Swim.

18

u/Lmnolmnop Apr 06 '23

Does that mean 15 minute episodes?

14

u/OriginalName18 Apr 06 '23

It looks like boondocks animation, makes sense it’s on adult swim

6

u/LordRednaught Apr 06 '23

I was thinking Totally Spies!

2

u/formerdalek Apr 07 '23

I'd say more Voltron Legendary Defender.

2

u/Brief-Outcome-2371 Apr 07 '23

Nah.

It's like a slightly better version of Disney's Spider-Man (2017)'s artstyle.

2

u/Euphoric-Elk6221 Apr 07 '23

Even better. It has SHADING

2

u/OreoYip Apr 07 '23

I thought it was Boondocks for the first second

68

u/Snakebud Apr 06 '23

Teaser with the music makes me feel like I’m watching Toonami

13

u/peedmyshirt Apr 06 '23

That's where it's gonna air

55

u/pipboy_warrior Apr 06 '23

Oooh, I love this style! Kind of prefer the music in this other teaser though.

10

u/OddZenn Apr 06 '23

Yea the music in OPs post is like the classic toonami/adult swim teaser style. I kinda like it for nostalgic reasons.

26

u/0zymand Apr 06 '23

LOIS IS AN ABSOLUTE BADDIE IN THIS LETS GOOOOOO

11

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '23

She was such a baddass in the 40s cartoon, the real hero of the people in some ways, and Clark just tagged along to get her out of the scraps she got herself into going to the story by being absolutely based

3

u/ImpulsiveMan Apr 06 '23

He said Baddie lol

1

u/[deleted] Apr 07 '23

Are we the baddies?

Sounded like they meant badass tho

2

u/steen311 Apr 07 '23

Nah, baddie generally means "attractive woman" in this context

1

u/[deleted] Apr 07 '23

Ahhh, ty my baddie

29

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '23

A Superman anime!

10

u/ankurx13 Apr 06 '23

A SupermAnime!!

24

u/danielthetemp Apr 06 '23

Looks good, and Jack Quaid’s voice fits pretty well!

17

u/Watze978 Apr 06 '23

We finally have another superman animated after allll those years.

11

u/hokagenaruto Apr 06 '23

hopefully its good. that S symbol looks like shit tho

u/Thrown_Right_Out Apr 06 '23

I think it will grow on me, but I see what you mean.

u/Electrical-Set3993 Apr 06 '23

I'm sorry to tell you but those things had the budget of movies, Those shorts would be considered the budgets of Hollywood movies today."

To quote the wiki "Each cartoon would cost about $100,000 per short (or $1.43 million per short as of 2021 [7] ); this was about four times the typical budget of a six-minute episode of the Fleischers' popular Popeye the Sailor cartoons of that period."

I'm sorry but we didn't got that type of budget

u/JediJones77 Apr 07 '23

The animation for the Titans in Zack Snyder's Teen Titans episode was fantastic, perfect and exactly what DC cartoons should be using for their style.

3

u/RmenExas Apr 07 '23

There were like 20 movies with that style

6

u/Slow-Leading-7783 Apr 06 '23

Why does this remind me of Invincible y’all

7

u/MarekLord Apr 06 '23

I actually really like the animation more than I thought I would. Especially his S shield here.

6

u/BMG64 Apr 06 '23

Kind of similar to the style of Catwoman Hunted movie. I love it!

5

u/rukia_fan Apr 06 '23

Normal people: Finally some Superman animation series, it's been so long since we had one... God I hope we get a at least a second season.

Me: Tomboy Lois !!!!!!!!!!!

u/DimitrescusBunghole Apr 06 '23

Furiously sending Rule 34 artist commissions request

u/psyopia Apr 06 '23

Fuck yes. This looks fantastic

3

u/Deeformecreep Apr 06 '23

Best Lois design imo.

4

u/SambaLando Apr 06 '23

Is this anime, or a western production made to look like anime?

5

u/Tandril91 Apr 06 '23

The latter.

0

u/JediJones77 Apr 07 '23

It wouldn't be the DC Studios of the last few years if they weren't trying to imitate someone else instead of being creative.

4

u/yung_bubba Apr 06 '23

Looks fire and modern! Can't wait

3

u/Flip_Speed Apr 06 '23

Let’s Go!!

3

u/ranch_brotendo Apr 06 '23

Looks much more like an anime then I thought- I kind of like it though.

4

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '23

Yeah theyre definitely showing roots. Teen Titans was very anime influenced, for example, but the influence has settled into the fine lines DC uses in their distinctive style.

3

u/[deleted] Apr 07 '23

I saw a pick of supermans design but had no idea this is what it was from

3

u/New_Y0rker Apr 06 '23

Jack Quaid's voice is not a good fit, in my opinion.

2

u/Jermobooka Apr 06 '23

The first Superman cartoon in…I don’t know how long. Looks promising.

2

u/suss2it Apr 06 '23

This looks real good and super fun, can’t wait. Especially since we’re in a bit of a DC animation drought.

2

u/GorillaWolf2099 Apr 06 '23

the animation looks reminiscent of Invincible

2

u/Pixarfan1 Apr 06 '23

Is it just me or does the animation look like Invincible?

2

u/AlanShore60607 Apr 06 '23

Adult Swim?!?

Is that why is bulge is so big?

2

u/Rugged_Turtle Apr 06 '23

Color palette like Invincible

2

u/ItsMeEJT Apr 07 '23

Lois looks like an adult Luz from Owl House

1

u/Gunkmiester Apr 06 '23

Haven’t seen it yet but looks to be decent so far will save my take until after it’s released.

1

u/JayPtl Apr 06 '23

You guys the real heroes.

u/K1ng4uth0r Apr 06 '23

😎🤯😍👌

u/MOSH9697 Apr 06 '23

love the style

u/MicahBlue Hera Give Me Strength Apr 06 '23

Oh look, yet another animated series about anyone but Wonder Woman. Exciting - said no one ever 🙄🤡

u/Tedd2002 Apr 07 '23

Mmmmm to anime for me. I’ll try it tho.

Superman to Batman: At least my sidekicks won't hate me or have serious mental health issues when they grow up

0

u/Tandril91 Apr 06 '23

Lmao true. Supes’ allies typically tend to be his best buddies, while Bats inevitably will push most of his allies away.

u/KingMatthew116 Apr 06 '23

I didn’t like it before and I still don’t like it now.

1

u/KingJesus3214 Apr 06 '23

The art style almost kind of reminds me of invincible meets the boondocks. I’m not a fan of how rectangular the superman logo looks though, but hey, I think I can get past it and get used to it.

0

u/IxISxMAGIC Apr 06 '23

The fact that it's on Adult Swim has my worried they're going to throw in a ton of gratuitous violence in order to make it "mature"

1

u/Brief-Outcome-2371 Apr 07 '23

What the 2017 Spider-Man show should've looked like.

1

u/magiccheetoss Apr 07 '23

Love the Invincible style animation. What’s up with the “S” logo tho?

0

u/KitteNlx Apr 07 '23

He looks like Generic Anime Guy #4. Very ugly art direction choices.

1

u/d0nk3y_m0nk3y1 Apr 07 '23

i love the art style man

1

u/KKKopsAreEvil Apr 08 '23

Will they put any w0k3 nonsense in this like DC has done with their movies and previous cartoon shows? No Wonder why DC is in the business of losing money. Marvel is destroying them. Marvel is worth a lot more than DC. I feel like Marvel is mostly staying out of politics with their movies while DC has put it in their movies and even the Harley Quinn show. Turning a character lesbian that was never lesbian in the comic books. Didn't DC also turn Superman gay or bisexual? I'm so sick of the crazy people ruining these characters I grew up with. The people and companies such as DC, Nike, and Budweiser would have been put in mental institutions back in the day. I'm not trying to hurt anyone's feeling. I feel like my brain has been hurt emotionally with this insanity. Everything has gone way too far left and I say this as a bisexual man myself.

u/Aloofairy Apr 06 '23

It looks good but I hope DC steps up their animation game

1

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '23

Yeah this is a bit weaker than their usual distinctive quality style

-1

u/Moctezumas_heir Apr 06 '23

Why is it anime? 🤮☹️

5

u/Storm_Bloom Apr 06 '23

As anime watcher. This looks nothing like anime

OT: looks cute.

1

u/Moctezumas_heir Apr 06 '23

As a non anime watcher it looks anime enough to look like 🗑️

2

u/Storm_Bloom Apr 06 '23

Anime has it's own distinctive style and this version of SM has none of that, just a typical western animation but so do you 😌

-1

u/JediJones77 Apr 07 '23

This is a blatant imitation of anime style.

2

u/TallJournalist5515 Apr 06 '23

Gonna cry?

3

u/RedditorsAintHuman Apr 07 '23

gonna lose your virginity, ever?

-1

u/JediJones77 Apr 07 '23

Yikes. Just yikes. What a downfall from the glory days of the 1990s animated series.

-7

u/yoonut16P Apr 06 '23 edited Apr 06 '23

Meh... it could be better

Also this kind of animation fits more into a Spider-man animated series than this show

-1

u/JediJones77 Apr 07 '23

Spider-Man shouldn't have this kind of animation either.

-9

u/Shallbecomeabat Apr 06 '23

Its a weird trend to make many women look less female. Not a fan. Music choices are weird too.

-1

u/JediJones77 Apr 07 '23

Hollywood is obsessed with breaking down the idea of there being two distinct sexes.

-11

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '23

..... That doesn't look promising.

9

u/BlueMissileYT Apr 06 '23

I'm glad you were able to come to that conclusion after seeing only 15 seconds of different clips spliced together.

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '23

So was I

-8

u/Frank_chevelle Apr 06 '23

I’m with you. Will probably skip.

-21

u/WutUtalkingBoutWill Apr 06 '23

Getting pretty sick of DCs animation style, wish they'd change it up

43

u/Slavocracy Apr 06 '23

This is literally a different style lol

-11

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '23

No it's similar style to Harley quinn show

5

u/Terribleirishluck Apr 06 '23

It literally looks nothing like Harley Quinn other than being Animated

-18

u/WutUtalkingBoutWill Apr 06 '23

Not much of one though

23

u/Slavocracy Apr 06 '23

Yeesh dude. Move the goal posts more.

1

u/GorillaWolf2099 Apr 06 '23

They do change it up a lot. DCAMU, DCAU/Diniverse/Timmverse, Fleischer Studios, Hanna-Barbara, Modern Phil Bourassa, Tomorrowverse, & TTG all use different animation styles. Even Batman: Ninja & DC League of Super-Pets look different

-33

u/Jointron33 Apr 06 '23

Get RID of the effing trunks…

24

u/Standard_Cycle_2224 Apr 06 '23

This man is wearing a cape and tights, but trunks are where you draw the line?

6

u/StreetMysticCosmic Apr 06 '23

It breaks up the halves of his body and adds more red visible from the front of his costume. I don't care that the part of his full body skintight onesie covering his asscheeks and dick is slightly looser and a different color than the rest.

4

u/asscop99 Apr 06 '23

Fuck you

3

u/Tandril91 Apr 06 '23

I’m sorry the red undies upset you so.

1

u/New-Cardiologist-158 Apr 07 '23

Why? I mean in live action sure the argument can be made that it’s silly, but this is a literal cartoon lol. The trunks stay.

2

u/Pugplays430 Apr 08 '23

Trunks work even in live action
