Everyone may be waiting on James Gunn’s reboot of Superman with David Corenswet, but the Man of Steel has found a renewed take in Adult Swim’s My Adventures with Superman.
The second season is set to premiere this month, and we have a new trailer showcasing some new villains—specifically Superman’s comic nemesis Lex Luthor. Check this out:
The official synopsis for Season 2 reads:
“In the second season, the three best friends face a host of new threats. Powerful foes will emerge from Clark’s alien past, Amanda Waller will take aim at Superman, Lois will grapple with the future, and Jimmy Olsen will spend an unbelievable amount of money. Krypton is coming for our young heroes, and its arrival will test their strength, loyalty and love like never before.”
No doubt, Lex is the biggest reveal in the trailer, and just like his live-action counterpart, it looks like he’s going to be some kind of tech mogul. While Superman is known to look very strong and sturdy, this Lex is a bit scrawny and young; everyone is already wondering how he’s going to lose his hair, and they imagine it’s going to be brutal.
On the other hand, it does look like the world is starting to expand more outside of the City of Metropolis with the arrival of Amanda Waller. It could be a matter of time before we get this series version of Task Force X/Suicide Squad or a crossover with another hero.
The second season of My Adventures with Superman is set to premiere on Adult Swim and Max on May 25.
