Welcome to the Superman Super Site


Superman is the brainchild of Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster who first envisioned the character in 1932 and later had his first appearance in Action Comics #1 in June 1938. What Jerry and Joe did not know at the time was that they had created a character that would become the signature icon of DC Comics and the most universally recognized hero in human history.

Since 1938, the character of Superman/Clark Kent has appeared in every imaginable media form including television, film, novelizations, and even a Broadway show.

Being Superman is the childhood fantasy of every little boy and girl (they of course want to be Supergirl). He is an enduring emblem of the American dream, the young immigrant who comes to the United States, embraces the culture and makes something of himself and enriches his adopted nation. He is a classical hero in the modern age who fights criminals, rescues the helpless and has a sense of morals and justice as strong and unshakeable as he is.

Since 1998, the Superman Super Site's mission statement has been to bring you all the latest news, updates, and information pertaining to the Man of Steel and the Superman universe in general.

It is a mission we are proud to maintain for all the fellow Superman fans of the world and everyone who visits our site because, without you, we would not exist.

Having first appeared in Superman Vol 2 #2 (February, 1987) as a scientist that worked for Lexcorp, Entertainment Weekly describes Chapman's portrayal of the character as "intelligent, cunning, and loyal".

An official description of the character further states, "Little is known about her mysterious past, but she's the only one in Luthor's inner circle that he views as an equal, which makes her a massive threat to the Kents... and anyone else who stands in her way."

Chapman is best known for role as the cunning assassin Zhilan on "Kung Fu" and currently stars as the legendary warrior Avatar Kyoshi on the Netflix series "Avatar: The Last Airbender". She has also appeared in such television series as "The 100", "The Crossing", and "Street Legal".

On June 4th, DC is bringing the action and excitement of the hit animated series "My Adventures with Superman" to comic book fans in a new series. Written by series producer Josie Campbell and drawn by artist Pablo M. Collar, My Adventures with Superman picks up from the explosive end of season one, serving as a bridge to the highly anticipated season two.

"Being the producer of My Adventures with Superman and bringing Clark Kent to TV screens around the world has been nothing but a dream come true for me," said Campbell. "So I'm absolutely thrilled that Pablo and I get to bring fans even more adventures with Superman, this time in comic book form!"

Clark Kent is a bit down and out, spending Christmas alone in Metropolis. But when he gets a tip about a monster in the sewers, Superman, Lois Lane and Jimmy Olsen spring into action to investigate this mystery. What is this monster that can absorb anything it touches, and why is it here in Metropolis?

"This story is one we actually talked about in the writers room, but we didn't have space for it in season one," continued Campbell. "So get ready for romance, comedy, super-powers, Jimmy Olsen talking a lot about how he's super-rich now, and all the goodness of the show bundled into this action-packed miniseries."

Artist Pablo M. Collar brings an impressive DC pedigree to this series, having provided art for DC's Are You Afraid of Darkseid, DC's Ghouls Just Wanna Have Fun, and other DC anthology titles. "I was completely in love with My Adventures with Superman the minute I saw the announcement of the series, and I jumped at the chance to work with Josie on the comic,” said Collar. “Superman has always been the reference and the symbol of all that's good in us, and being part of something like this is a dream come true, and the whole team will give it our best."

My Adventures with Superman #1 is available for pre-order at participating comic book shops Friday, March 15, and arrives at participating shops and e-tailers Tuesday, June 4. The debut issue features a main cover by Carli Squiteri, with variant covers by Gavin Guidry and Riley Rossmo, plus a blank sketch variant cover. See your local shop for further details and pre-ordering.

Produced by Warner Bros. Animation, tune in to Season One of "My Adventures with Superman" on MAX and Adult Swim, with Season Two coming soon to Adult Swim.

Scenes featuring the Fortress of Solitude in James Gunn's "Superman" have begun filming in the Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard located in the Arctic Ocean.

"We have filmed the first scenes [in Svalbard], which show Superman fleeing to the Fortress of Solitude," stated Gunn in an interview with the Norwegian news outlet, Svalbardposten. "We wanted a place that was beautiful and felt like being in the middle of the Arctic, so we looked at several places in the world. But there were many things that sold Svalbard for us over the other places. First, there is the natural beauty. But there's also the fact that you'll find a varied landscape here that you won't find anywhere else. Nature gives a special feeling."

Gunn added that filming took place each day from eight in the morning until around four in the afternoon which resulted in locals arriving on sight to watch while crews worked on the highly anticipated film.

"We have had some who have been curious, yes, who have stood and watched. But that's perfectly fine," stated Gunn. "And that's a big difference. Because being interested in just watching is something completely different than when you have people trying to sneak into the set to take pictures that they can make money from by selling online."

Production on "Superman" is currently in full swing in and around the Atlanta, GA area and will move on to the Cincinnati and Cleveland, OH areas later this year to shoot various scenes for the film as well.

"Superman" stars David Corenswet as Clark Kent/Superman, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, Terence Rosemore as Otis, Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho, Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner/Green Lantern, Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl, Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific, María Gabriela De Faría as The Engineer, Skyler Gisondo as Jimmy Olsen, and Sara Sampaio as Eve Teschmacher.

The film tells the story of Superman's journey to reconcile his Kryptonian heritage with his human upbringing as Clark Kent of Smallville, Kansas. He is the embodiment of truth, justice and the American way, guided by human kindness in a world that sees kindness as old-fashioned.

"Superman" is currently scheduled to premiere in theaters on July 11th, 2025.

Actor Nicholas Hoult recently sat down with Michael Rosenbaum on his "Inside of You" podcast to discuss his upcoming role as Lex Luthor in "Superman" and revealed how much he admires Rosenbaum's portrayal of the iconic DC Comics villain.

"I think the first ever Lex I saw was you," said Hoult. "Yeah, I grew up when Smallville was on, I can't remember if it was Channel 4 or Channel 5 in the UK, but like growing up. I was like 11, 12, I guess. And so that was like the show that I would watch and see my first iterations of Superman and Lex and all those stories. Since I’ve seen Richard Donner’smovies and all the other ones and kind of seen some of the other performances, but you’re like the one. I love [your portrayal], it's the best."

Touching on how Rosenbaum's verison of Lex has inspired him, Hoult added, "You inhabit him with such depth and charm. And then, yeah, that ability to switch, which makes him dangerous and formidable and a great opponent. I just loved what you did."

Hoult also talked about how he has prepared for the role stating, "I have been working out. No, you know what, there's that bit in 'All-Star Superman' where he talks about his muscles being real and like hard work and all that. I kind of took that as a little bit of like fuel for the fire."

In addition to Hoult's role as Lex Luthor, "Superman" will feature David Corenswet as Clark Kent/Superman, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Terence Rosemore as Otis, Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho, Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner/Green Lantern, Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl, Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific, María Gabriela De Faría as The Engineer, Skyler Gisondo as Jimmy Olsen, and Sara Sampaio as Eve Teschmacher.
