Superman: Animated Collection (2016)

Superman: Animated Collection (2016)

A five-movie collection released one week after the similarly titled Batman: Animated Collection, except this time it's Superman themed, with some bonus Batman. Go figure.

As before I'll list them in the order they're presented in the collection, which, likewise, is NOT the order that they're best viewed.

Perhaps whoever assembled both collections ought to have did a little more research before the arrangement (and cover art) was finalised, or at the very least gracefully stepped aside and let someone with dignity take over the task.

Up first is 01. Superman: Unbound (2013 / Dir. James Tucker), in which a bland and boring version of Krypton's most famous son has to contend with Supergirl's super-angst and the possibility of the planet Earth being wiped out by the big bad. I'm not sure which is worse, or which is the most overused plot device.

The Unwritten was a comic book series created by British author Mike Carey and American artist Peter Gross. It ran for 71 issues in total, with an additional standalone comic book prequel titled Tommy Taylor and the Ship That Sank Twice (2013). I've featured all of its TPB editions on the main blog, with each edition's respective cover arts closing the posts, but I like the idea of having them all together in one place. All 72 works are by Japanese illustrator Yuko Shimizu.
