Additional talent participating at the premieres will be announced as confirmed.

All free fan tickets have been distributed.

Reign of the Supermen finds Earth’s citizens – and the Man of Steel’s heroic contemporaries – dealing with a world without Superman. But the aftermath of Superman’s death, and the subsequent disappearance of his body, leads to a new mystery – is Superman still alive? The question is further complicated when four new super-powered individuals – Steel, Cyborg Superman, Superboy and the Eradicator – emerge to proclaim themselves as the ultimate hero. In the end, only one will be able to proclaim himself the world’s true Superman.

Produced by Warner Bros. Animation and DC Entertainment, the feature-length animated Reign of the Supermen arrives from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment on Digital starting January 15, 2019, and on Ultra HD Blu-ray Combo Pack and Blu-ray Combo Pack on January 29, 2019.

In addition, fans wishing to get an advance look at Superman’s greatest adventure – his death and rebirth – can take advantage of a special two-day exclusive theatrical event as Warner Bros. and DC join forces with Fathom Events for a double feature presentation of the previously released The Death of Superman and the first in-theater screening of the all-new Reign of the Supermen nationwide on January 13 and 14, 2019 in more than 500 select movie theaters. Tickets for The Death of Superman/Reign of the Supermen Double Feature can be purchased at Fandango.com and participating theater box offices.

Who would have thought the kid in that annoying show that followed Superboy back in the day would now be the voice of Superman…

That amusing realization aside, I find it weird that Jerry isn’t voicing the Eradicator. When I read the books, I always gave Superman and Eradicator the same voice because it was Clark’s body. I seem to recall Lois mentioning something along these lines as well. Like it was his voice, just not his personality.

I remember that as well. I think she said something about how he sounded like Clark for a second or something like that. I think Jerry was even friends with Chris Reeve or had worked with the Reeve foundation before Reeve died. If that’s true, then that’s an amazing Superman connection. And its amazing that Jerry is carrying on the role of Superman. The same role that so many other actors had the honor of playing. To carry on the legacy of Superman.

Didn’t his character use spray cans to fly around? It’s been so long since I’ve seen that show.

It was better toward the end of the series, but I personally found it really weak compared to Superboy. It was like watching a diet-cola version of Superboy lol. I don’t think he ever even got a costume, did he? It was like Smallville… no flights, no tights, just floats…

It was kinda anticlimactic in a way. A person who has superpowers and did things a superhero would do yet there was no opposing villain or supervillian. At least not any that I can think of. I could be wrong on that. It’s been years since I had seen that show.

Randall, I don’t know if you had read my previous comment to you in our last conversation, but in case you haven’t, I just wanted to apologize to you again. I overreacted. I’m sorry.
