January 16, 2013: A Look Back at Superman in "Justice League" Animated Series

Justice League Voices From Krypton have published another entry in their twice-weekly series focusing on the creation of the "Justice League" animated series, which provides an overview of the show and introduces the actors who brought the characters to life, while also going behind the scenes of every episode of "Justice League" and "Justice League Unlimited" with the creative voices behind the series. Today's entry focuses on Superman...

    "Superman got beat up and knocked on his ass all the time on his own show," James Tucker points out. "The difference was that the camera stayed on Superman because it was his show. There was no one else to come in and pick up the slack or change the focus to. Because the focus was on Superman, you waited until he got up and came back. Well on Justice League, Superman takes a licking, goes off screen and we don't necessarily follow him. We stay at that point and Green Lantern or Wonder Woman comes in. The main mistake we made with that was having him get hit all the time and not showing him recovering and coming right back. We erred on the side of caution, because Superman theoretically should be able to handle all of these problems by himself. I don't think we made him weaker, we just didn't cover our bases as far as showing him be Superman."
