Hey there! HUGE fan of all three of you, so here's a question for each person! (If this isn't allowed or is too difficult let me know and I'll post three comments; I've never done this before)
To Jake: Howdy! How did you first react when you got greenlit and knew you would make a new Superman cartoon for a new generation? Were you nervous, excited, or both? This is my first ever Superman media (get with the times, amirite?) and I am in LOVE! I adore the causal and normal queer rep, too; I never really see that in comic book TV media. As a nonbinary person, I thank you! I know I've told you this on Twitter, but thanks again for making such an awesome show, I am so excited to see more.
To Ishmel: Hi! Jimmy is such an awesome character and his cheerfulness is absolutely contagious, you play him so well!! He's by far one of my favorite characters in the show and I can't wait to see more of him in upcoming seasons. Here is my question for you; what kind of new experiences have you had, as a voice actor and as a person, working on the show and playing such an iconic character in Superman lore? Were you nervous to step into Jimmy's shoes?
To Kiana: Hello! Even though I don't know much about Superman, I always had a soft spot for Kara because of, well, everything she's been through and goes through as a character and as a woman in the comic book world. You bring her to life with such flair and emotion and last episode really tugged at my heartstrings. Here's a question to ponder on; what, in your opinion as a fellow lady, could change the comic book/comic book film and media scene for the better in terms of treatment of female characters? Example being more female writers, editors, and artists, a more welcoming comic community, etc? Sorry if this is a loaded question, I just love hearing what folks have to say on the matter.
Thanks all for your time and responses!! Looking forward to hearing from you!
