Or if you're into that, alternate between the two shows.

It's also hard to go wrong with Superman: TAS.
I prefer the live-action productions, personally.
I haven't been here in a while, but the trailer for the movie got released while I was gone.
I loved every second. I almost cried when I saw Krypto. I'm a big fan of Gunn, I think he's going to give us his best work time. Between it and Fantastic Four, comic book movie fans are going to be eating this summer.

We have a cross between a terrier and a schnauzer--so she basically looks like a tiny terrier. We've taken to calling Krypto our dog's "boyfriend". About 60% of the reason I'm looking forward to this movie is because of the dog. My wife is looking forward to also seeing Brosnahan as she is a huge fan of Mrs. Maisel.
I'm so happy that we're getting out of the idea that comic book movies need to be grounded and gritty. We can have wacky shit like Superman fighting a kaiju, make it look good on screen, and still treat the characters themselves seriously.
Cool!
I started watching Superman TAS, and I decided to just jump in where the first DVD set, which is how I watched the earlier episodes, ended so I started with Identity Crisis, the episode that introduces their take on Bizarro
I loved the opening, where they made you think we were following Superman, until he save Lois and Clark after they fall out of their car and go over the cliff. I knew it was a Bizarro story, but it didn't even occur to me we were following Bizarro, and not Superman until we saw him carrying Clark over the cliff.
I do like how they didn't have Bizarro as truly evil, with the danger coming from his attempts to be a hero going as he broke down.
I was a little surprised Lex was so quick to lay out his whole plan to Lois the way he did.
My only complaint with the episode is that was a little quieter and more low key than I expect from superhero story, but that might just be due to me coming into it with more modern expections.

Mrs. Maisel is wonderful. Definitely worth checking out.
Maybe I am aging out but I can't seem to get hyped for any offerings this year.
You're not alone there. I've been feeling that way for roughly a decade now.
Superman is the only thing that has caught my attention lately.
And most of that for me is the brighter costume.
Interesting that Superman and FF seem a lot brighter than past DCEU and MCU productions.
