Das Boo posted:More BGs: I really enjoyed that dynamic in episode 3! In general I really like this early dynamic of how they just met, they want very similar things but how they go about it causes friction. End of episode Clark just opening up and starting to bare his soul to her, only to then hear from her that she doesn't even believe him. Just a really good extra layer of her more rogueish ways vs his altruism, that she doesn't trust immediately

MonsterEnvy posted:One of the reasons most people don’t link Clark and Superman in many versions is because most people don’t know Superman has a secret identity. He tends to straight out tell people his background minus the Clark stuff. Also big coke-bottle glasses can do a drat fine job obscuring your facial features because people are mostly going to focus on them.

And then you have versions like All-Star Superman where Clark has a totally different posture from when he's Superman that makes it a lot less obvious

George Newbern, the guy who's done most of the animated Superman since the Justice League cartoon started back in 2001, has also done most of the voiced English language Sephiroths.

Speaking of Superman, I just watched the third episode. I was sort of expecting Heat Wave to be next given the recent tweet but Intergang was good too. I’m really hoping Clark reveals his identity to Lois and Jimmy sooner rather than later since he literally lives with the latter and the former already suspects he’s (or at least Superman’s) full of crap In regards to Lois, I’ve gotta say that Alice Lee is really good for what’s apparently her first voice acting job Also if the Wikipedia article is correct, we’ve got a few more confirmed characters for the series now: Lana Lang, Parasite, and Supergirl Larryb fucked around with this message at 20:59 on Jul 15, 2023 |

Gotta say, nothing in MAWS so far has given me a more powerful sense of dread than seeing a trio of dumb young kids with big dreams calling their little found family 'Intergang'.

re: superman glasses thing apparently in recent years, they made a retcon that superman had an additional never before mentioned power to cast illusions or some poo poo, so when people saw him as clark, there was much more of a difference than just superman with glasses Das Boo posted:The first episode of MAWS I worked on premiered last night! meant to congratulate you earlier. great work! Electric Phantasm posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mXiy-Rx5IU forget the name of the dude voicing perry but it's great to see him still doing work. used to be a real prominent VA in the 90s, but haven't heard him in anything notable in a long time.

The post-Crisis version from John Byrne is that as Superman he moves his face around at super-speed so it’s hard to see a lot of detail. I don’t know how that works when he’s having a conversation with someone.

The actual explanation used by most writers is "Clark is a pretty good actor and wears loose-fitting clothes and huge glasses."

Also like said earlier in the thread, probably, is people would just look at Clark and go 'hey you look like Superman!' and not think he is Superman like people say 'hey, you look like <famous person>' without thinking that it's really whomever standing in line behind them at Subway.

From what I understand from the comics/other media, the general consensus among the public (or at least in Lex Luthor’s opinion) is that Superman doesn’t have a secret identity because nobody that powerful would bother disguising themselves as a normal man

He doesn’t invite speculation about a secret identity because he doesn’t wear a mask, he’s always out doing stuff during the day, and he has a house at the south pole. It would be like thinking Keanu Reeves has a secret identity. Batman plants the idea in your head by being so mysterious about everything. If you don’t wear a mask, most people would never think of it. Plus, how many people have seen Superman up-close? He’s a white guy with black hair a big chin. There are probably memes about how he looks like Clark Kent and a dozen other vaguely notable people, but because they’re generic white guys. Bruce Wayne kind of looks like Superman too.

I still think the funniest answer to this question was a comic where another superhero asked Superman if people ever noticed he looked like Superman when he is Clark Kent. Because Superman just looks at the guy and went "yeah, all the time. And, do you know what I say when someone points that out? I just go 'Yeah, I get that a lot.'"
