By Brian Salvatore | Oct 14, 2020 | Television

Adventures of Superman continues to make its villains smarter and its heroes dumber. Let’s get to this week’s double shot of absurdity. 1. Jimmy Olsen, the Fool, Part 8493 So Jimmy is on vacation, just driving a car 50 miles outside of Metropolis, as one does on vacation, and he’s pulled over for speeding. Jimmy […]

Five Thoughts on Adventures of Superman‘s “Dagger Island” and “Blackmail”

By Brian Salvatore | Sep 22, 2020 | Television

As we near the end of our Summer TV Binge, Adventures of Superman keeps up its silliness in Season 4, and delivers two fun, if slight, episodes. 1. Exposition Junction The plot behind “Dagger Island” is absurd for many reasons, but instead of working out a better story, or giving natural reasons, they just have […]

Six Thoughts on Adventures of Superman‘s “The Girl Who Hired Superman” and “The Wedding of Superman”

By Brian Salvatore | Sep 15, 2020 | Television

If Adventures of Superman was always as bonkers as “The Wedding of Superman,” the show would be among the most fun ever made. The campiness of the color episodes is always appreciated. Because the second episode was so fun and the first one merely fine, we’ll do one thought on “The Girl Who Hired Superman” […]

Five Thoughts on Adventures of Superman‘s “Topsy Turvy” and “Jimmy the Kid”

By Brian Salvatore | Sep 8, 2020 | Television

The fun season 4 continues, as the gang hangs upside down and deals with a lookalike. Up, up, and away! 1. Reasonably convincing pseudo-science! In “Topsy Turvy,” one of the plethora of mad scientists hanging around Metropolis has invented a machine that, briefly, convinces the people in its vicinity that they are upside down. The […]

Five Thoughts on Adventures of Superman‘s “The Big Freeze” and “Peril by the Sea”

By Brian Salvatore | Sep 1, 2020 | Television

If the first two seasons of Adventures of Superman were all about common crooks doing boring crime, seasons three and four have been all about common crooks doing absolutely insane crimes. “The Big Freeze” and “Peril by the Sea” both fit this mold, and they are each an unique and special kind of nuts. 1.

Five Thoughts on Adventures of Superman‘s “The 7 Souvenirs” and “King for a Day”

By Brian Salvatore | Aug 21, 2020 | Television

We’ve made it to the end of Season 3! Don’t fret, I’ll be back with Season 4 next week, but these episodes are, in a way, a perfect way to reflect back on the season that was. Up, up, and away! 1. Why use Clark and not Superman here? So, there’s a knick knacks shop […]

Five Thoughts on Adventures of Superman‘s “Flight to the North”

By Brian Salvatore | Aug 11, 2020 | Television

This is the 63rd episode of Adventures of Superman that I have reviewed for Multiversity Comics. In this season alone, I’ve seen episodes about time travel, an anti-superstition society, and Perry White thinking that he’s seeing the actual ghost of Caesar. Yet none of that could have prepared me for “Flight to the North.” 1. […]

Five Thoughts on Adventures of Superman‘s “The Magic Necklace” and “The Bully of Dry Gulch”

By Brian Salvatore | Aug 6, 2020 | Television

These two episodes take Clark, Lois, and Jimmy out of Metropolis, which allows for stereotypes and caricatures to run wild! 1. How did they carry around that poison? The first episode, “The Magic Necklace,” centers around the legend of a ancient Tibetan necklace that protects its wearer from all harm. We see one of Metropolis’s […]

By Brian Salvatore | Jul 28, 2020 | Television

As the season progresses, the goofiness is revealing itself, like a late on the tongue note from a fine glass of wine. These two are goofy to the max, and I’m here for it. 1. Artistolsen In what can only be described as the best luck of all time, Jimmy Olsen bumbles his way into […]
