All of the remaining DC superhero shows in this TV universe have been renewed, and they even have a few new ones in the planning stages, such as <em>Green Arrow and the Canaries<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps no <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> has generated more hype, however, than <em>Superman &#038; Lois<\/em>. Of course, with that hype comes a major question: is this show\u2019s creative potential dried up before it\u2019s even premiered?<\/p>\n<p>Part of that uncertainty has to do with its origin on <em>Supergirl<\/em>, which focuses on Superman\u2019s cousin. Previously existing as an offscreen mentor for Melissa Benoist\u2019s titular hero, the Man of Steel made his first major <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>earance as a guest star in the show\u2019s second season, played by <em>Teen Wolf<\/em> star Tyler Hoechlin.<\/p>\n<p>His portrayal essentially brought the wholesome optimism and charm of Christopher Reeve\u2019s Superman into the modern era, and this approach proved popular with fans, especially after the dour doldrums of Henry Cavill\u2019s version in <em>Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>This led to several more appearances and even talk of a spinoff. Such speculation only strengthened when one of the crossovers introduced Elizabeth Tulloch as journalist\/love interest Lois Lane.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Up_up_and_away\"><\/span>Up, up, and away?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Eventually, a series starring Hoechlin and Tulloch was officially announced. Due to the Coronavirus pandemic, it\u2019s slated to premiere in January 2021 with the other Arrowverse shows. However, has Supergirl left her cousin anything to work with after five seasons of adventures?<\/p>\n<p>The reason I ask this is that, from the beginning, <em>Supergirl<\/em> essentially functioned as a gender-swapped rendition of a Superman series. Sure, there are a couple of additions (such as her adoptive sister Alex), and the writing delves much more into politics than one would expect (or want). However, fundamental similarities are hard to ignore.<\/p>\n<p>First, she was raised in a rural town by an adoptive Earth family. Second, her cover is a mild-mannered reporter, complete with the glasses. Much of the first season even focuses on her \u201cwill they, won\u2019t they\u201d romance with a fellow reporter. Third, she has regular chats with a holographic recreation of her alien parent.<\/p>\n<p>Add to this the fact that the show has introduced and vanquished several of Superman\u2019s most infamous foes. Examples include Toyman, Metallo, Parasite, Livewire, Silver Banshee, and even Mister Mxyzptlk. Bringing these villains back\u2014at least the ones who aren\u2019t dead or retired\u2014would simply retread old territory, and it would feel especially tired given how recent <em>Supergirl<\/em> is.<\/p>\n<p>Among the only possible exceptions to this would be Lex Luthor. Although he made his debut in Season 4, he is Superman\u2019s most iconic nemesis and has repeatedly shown himself to be the most resourceful of the Man of Steel\u2019s rogues. He could easily evolve as a character, develop an intriguing dynamic with his enemy, and grow into a more dangerous threat as the series progresses.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_304918\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Superman\" height=\"798\"  src=\"https:\/\/images2.minutemediacdn.com\/image\/fetch\/c_fill,g_auto,f_auto,h_798,w_1200\/https:\/\/hiddenremote.com\/files\/image-exchange\/2018\/08\/ie_46763.jpeg\"  width=\"1200\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p>Supergirl \u2014 \u201cDeus Lex Machina\u201d \u2014 Image Number: SPG517a_0213b.jpg \u2014 Pictured: Jon Cryer as Lex Luthor \u2014 Photo: Kailey Schwerman\/The CW \u2014 \u00a9 2020 The CW Network, LLC.

That makes it tough to translate this story for <em>Superman &#038; Lois<\/em> unless you change the characters who are involved.<\/p>\n<p>To be fair, that\u2019s a prospect which the creators should be familiar with. After all, they did it with Alan Moore\u2019s \u201cFor the Man Who Has Everything,\u201d easily one of the most beloved Superman stories out there. In it, the Man of Steel falls victim to the \u201cBlack Mercy,\u201d a parasitic plant traps him in a vision of his heart\u2019s desire.<\/p>\n<p>For good old Cal-El, this is simply living on a farm with a wife and son, having regular visits with his alien father due to Krypton never exploding. To break free, our hero must sacrifice these loved ones and this idyllic life to resume his responsibilities in the real world.<\/p>\n<p>In the comic, the plant comes courtesy of Mongul, an alien warlord.\u00a0<em>Supergirl<\/em>, by contrast, gives that role to the title character\u2019s evil aunt and her cartoonish boyfriend. Basically, they use the Black Mercy on the Girl of Steel to get her out of the way of their sinister scheme. Riveting, I know. Aside from that, Moore\u2019s premise plays out in much the same way. The writers even lift lines directly from the comic. You can see how reusing it for <em>Superman &#038; Lois<\/em> would come off as lazy.<\/p>\n<p>So, which popular tales are left? Well, there\u2019s always Mark Millar\u2019s \u201cSuperman: Red Son.\u201d This What-If story sees Superman raised in the Soviet Union during the Cold War instead of on a Kansas farm. Sure, the showrunners took inspiration from this with a Russian doppelganger of Supergirl, dubbed \u201cRed Daughter,\u201d but they have yet to go all the way with the alternate universe presented by the comic.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_281743\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Superman\" height=\"797\"  src=\"https:\/\/images2.minutemediacdn.com\/image\/fetch\/c_fill,g_auto,f_auto,h_797,w_1416\/https:\/\/hiddenremote.com\/files\/image-exchange\/2018\/08\/ie_41187.jpeg\"  width=\"1416\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p>Photo: Superman: Red Son\u2026 Image Courtesy Warner Bros. Home Entertainment<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>That being said, you have to consider that the Arrowverse\u2014<em>Supergirl<\/em> included\u2014is no stranger to parallel dimensions and diverging timelines. They have explored different versions of Earth on several occasions, often making them central to the plot. This recently culminated in <em>Crisis on Infinite Earths<\/em>, a massive crossover event about the destruction of the entire Multiverse. The last thing the writers probably want to deal with is yet another alternate universe.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Weve_heard_it_before_Superman\"><\/span>We\u2019ve heard it before, Superman.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In this age of superhero entertainment, that might be a problem for <em>Superman &#038; Lois<\/em>: the oversaturation or outright failure of ideas to resonate. Take <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">General<\/a> Zod, for instance. Not only do people still remember Terence Stamp\u2019s portrayal in <em>Superman II<\/em>, but we recently got a much hammier version from Michael Shannon in <em>Man of Steel<\/em>, a remake that divided viewers.<\/p>\n<p>Not to mention, Hoechlin\u2019s Superman already fought Zod in a hallucination on <em>Supergirl<\/em>, which established that he defeated the evil dictator years prior. Would his own series have him fight this hit-or-miss foe again? Where\u2019s the sense in that?<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_304922\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Superman\" height=\"186\" src=\"https:\/\/images2.minutemediacdn.com\/image\/fetch\/c_fill,g_auto,f_auto,h_186,w_300\/https:\/\/hiddenremote.com\/files\/image-exchange\/2018\/08\/ie_18473-420x260.jpeg\" width=\"300\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p>KRYPTON \u2014 \u201cWill To Power\u201d Episode 203 \u2014 Pictured: Emmett J. Scanlan as Lobo \u2014 (Photo by: Steffan Hill\/SYFY)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Then, there\u2019s Lobo, an intergalactic biker\/bounty hunter who made his live-action debut in SyFy\u2019s <em>Krypton<\/em> series. Due to the antihero\u2019s cult status, there was talk of a spinoff.<\/p>\n<p>Sadly, the network decided to pass on that idea, and <em>Krypton<\/em> was canceled after two seasons. CW execs might see this character as a failed experiment and may not want to bring him back so soon after he was associated with such a loss.<\/p>\n<p>To be fair, however, Lobo could be granted the same second chance as John Constantine. Despite his NBC canceling his show after one season, the snarky master of the dark arts was brought into the Arrowverse, eventually enjoying a recurring role on <em>Legends of Tomorrow<\/em>. Theoretically, they could give a similar treatment to Lobo.<\/p>\n<p>Because the show seems poised to be just as much about Lois as it is Clark, one esteemed storyline that might prove tempting is Grant Morrison\u2019s \u201cAll-Star Superman.\u201d Why? Not only is a large part of that tale told from Lois\u2019s perspective, but the plucky reporter even becomes a superhero at one point. Because he wants his lady love to experience the world as he does, Superman synthesizes a serum that grants her the same powers as him for a limited time.<\/p>\n<p>Why not make this permanent? Well, the serum is only possible due to his rapid increase in mental ability, which is one of the boosts he gains from absorbing more sunlight than usual. Unfortunately, this solar radiation will also turn him into pure energy, effectively giving him a year to live. Bringing in a plot which results in the title character\u2019s death is likely not a concept that the writers will be comfortable with, at least not initially.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_304923\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Superman\" height=\"800\"  src=\"https:\/\/images2.minutemediacdn.com\/image\/fetch\/c_fill,g_auto,f_auto,h_800,w_1200\/https:\/\/hiddenremote.com\/files\/image-exchange\/2018\/08\/ie_31744.jpeg\"  width=\"1200\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p>Supergirl \u2014 \u201cCrisis on Infinite Earths: Part One\u201d \u2014 Image Number: SPG509a_0098r.jpg \u2014 Pictured (L-R): Tyler Hoechlin as Clark Kent\/Superman and Elizabeth Tulloch as Lois Lane \u2014 Photo: Katie Yu\/The CW \u2014 \u00a9 2019 The CW Network, LLC. All Rights Reserved.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>For this reason and a slew of others, the series may also stay away from the most notorious story in the Man of Steel\u2019s long history: \u201cThe Death of Superman.\u201d Much like \u201cThe Dark Knight Returns,\u201d this narrative and its gimmick have been milked beyond belief, especially in recent years.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve seen, an animated film in 2007, several callbacks in various TV shows, and another (two-part) animated film in 2018 and 2019. Most infamously, though, was when the comic\u2019s seminal moments were clumsily crammed into the climax of <em>Batman v Superman<\/em>, resulting in wasted drama toward a \u201cdeath\u201d which audiences knew would be reversed in the subsequent <em>Justice League<\/em> flick.<\/p>\n<p>So, the writers aren\u2019t likely to use this comic. Not only would they not want their protagonist\u2019s death early in the show, but they\u2019re probably wary of the bad taste that <em>Batman v Superman<\/em> left in viewers\u2019 mouths.<\/p>\n<p>Ignoring \u201cThe Death of Superman\u201d would also make it difficult to include the newer characters who rose up in the hero\u2019s place. That means that guys like Steel and Superboy would need completely different backstories. Fortunately, this is not unheard of; it\u2019s been done in several works like <em>Superman: The Animated Series<\/em> and <em>Young Justice<\/em>. <em>Supergirl<\/em> itself even did this with Cyborg Superman (dumb name, I know), radically altering his design and making him a tool for anti-alien group Cadmus.<\/p>\n<p>Sadly, that flexibility probably wouldn\u2019t extend to Doomsday, the mysterious monster that kills the Man of Steel. He is remembered primarily for this act, existing as an unstoppable force of death. Integrating him into the show without having him do the deed would likely cheapen the character to being just another freak of the week. True, you could make him a small cog in a larger machine\u2014<em>Justice League Unlimited<\/em> accomplished this well\u2014but you still have the limitations of the medium.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Youll_not_believe_a_man_can_fly\"><\/span>You\u2019ll (not) believe a man can fly.<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A battle between Superman and Doomsday would result in catastrophic destruction and chaos on a widespread scale, and the creators simply can\u2019t convey that convincingly on a CW budget. Whenever <em>Supergirl<\/em> has shown fights between Kryptonians or otherwise godlike beings, it\u2019s always felt very tame and underwhelming. Attempting to portray Doomsday in this way would severely diminish the impact, and he\u2019s not the only one to potentially suffer from this.<\/p>\n<p>Some of Superman\u2019s foes might be just too big (for lack of a better word) for live-action network TV. Chief among these is the despotic god known as Darkseid, who\u2019s basically a more evil version of Thanos from the Marvel franchise. Instead of Infinity Stones, he seeks the enigmatic Anti-Life Equation to impose his order across the cosmos.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_288910\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Superman\" height=\"585\"  src=\"https:\/\/images2.minutemediacdn.com\/image\/fetch\/c_fill,g_auto,f_auto,h_585,w_1039\/https:\/\/hiddenremote.com\/files\/2020\/05\/JL-Dk-Apokolips-War-PUB-02.jpg\"  width=\"1039\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p>Justice League Dark: Apokolips War.

If you think the CW could handle something that effects-heavy, then you\u2019re out of your mind.<\/p>\n<p>However, I doubt we\u2019d see him in this show even if they did have the resources. He\u2019s supposedly making an appearance in the upcoming \u201cSnyder Cut\u201d of <em>Justice League<\/em>, and Warner Bros. has an annoying habit of not wanting more than one version of a DC character to exist at one time. It\u2019s why Deathstroke didn\u2019t show up more on Arrow; he was poised to appear in films like the aforementioned <em>Justice League<\/em> and Ben Affleck\u2019s Batman flick.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_304921\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Superman\" height=\"186\" src=\"https:\/\/images2.minutemediacdn.com\/image\/fetch\/c_fill,g_auto,f_auto,h_186,w_300\/https:\/\/hiddenremote.com\/files\/image-exchange\/2018\/08\/ie_19141-420x260.jpeg\" width=\"300\"><\/img><\/p>\n<p>KRYPTON \u2014 \u201cZods and Monsters\u201d Episode 207 \u2014 Pictured: Blake Ritson as Brainiac \u2014 (Photo by: Steffan Hill\/SYFY)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The villain more likely to show up is Brainiac, a computerized being akin to HAL 9000 from <em>2001: A Space Odyssey<\/em>. Roaming the galaxy in pursuit of ultimate knowledge, he collects data on planets and then annihilates them. He sometimes even shrinks entire cities and keeps them on his ship.<\/p>\n<p>The reason that he might appear is simple: part of him already has. First, in her show\u2019s debut season, Supergirl tackled Indigo, a mechanical baddie bearing Brainiac\u2019s symbol. Second, she later encountered the villain\u2019s descendant in Brainiac 5, who came from the future to aid her.<\/p>\n<p>Like Darkseid and Doomsday, though, Brainiac might be too large-scale for <em>Superman &#038; Lois<\/em>. If his massive ship and assimilation tech don\u2019t scare the VFX artists away, then his army of death-bots surely will.<\/p>\n<p>With most of the viable villains already taken and much of Superman\u2019s identity already explored in <em>Supergirl<\/em>, it\u2019s hard to have the Man of Steel\u2019s trademark optimism for this upcoming series. Granted, all of this is pure speculation. For all we know, <em>Superman &#038; Lois<\/em> could be one of the best works to feature this storied superhero.
