In his own show? It's because see In JLU? Some people headcanon that he had kryptonite poisoning which also caused those cheekbone lines on his face during the first two seasons
Someone's gettin' cancelled
Those damn cheekbones...
Is he weaker than post crisis Superman? Byrne power fucked him to point he needed to wear oxygen in space. He gets slapped around a lot in the triangle era and eventually even killed.
So he didn't end an episode in two minutes, I've always found it amusing, even as a child, that it's almost always electricity in JL / JLU that incapacitates Superman / WW / MM.
Besides they nail his characterization as far as I'm concerned and he does get quite a few moments of doing cool stuff.
Invincible heroes are boring
Bryne and Bruce toned down the powerset to make the show more entertaining and the threats more believable.
Every villain that wasn't just a massive army had direct counters to him.
The proportions of that picture are giving me a headache.
Oh, don’t get me wrong, I dig it.
I get making Supes weak in live action since that would be aimed at an older audience who might find some of his ability too childish also it would be too expensive to show it on a normal budget
but on a cartoon? I really don't get the decision.
Bruce especially went way too far, to the point where he barely feels super at all. He was getting knocked around by fire from an attack helicopter and struggling to lift a space fighter that Spider-man probably could've handled. Golden Age Superman was running laps around him a few issues into the first Action Comics run. I'm sympathetic to the idea that a writer might want to tone him down (even if I personally think that's the wrong way to approach characters like that), but there's a point where it doesn't feel like the character anymore.
I generally think that's just an excuse, anyway. While the show turned out really good in the end, I get the sense that Timm was apologizing for the fact that he was writing Superman the whole way through.
Did make him old.
because its hot seeing him get beat up
Come on you shitposting faggot, they explain it in the DCAU quite well.
What makes him super is the fact he keeps getting up, he always wins by taking a beating until he gets the hang of his opponent and fights back, almost no one is strong enough to actually harm him
>immediately jobs to the agony matrix in the next scene
lol
I wonder why he never used it before the last 1-2 times they fought?
He kept forgetting it. But that's a stupid question, these things run on plot, not logic.
