While some fans believe Vicki Vale's appearance in My Adventures With Superman is the setup for Batman's introduction, producer Josephine Campbell throws water on the speculation.
Speaking to Superman Homepage, Campbell acknowledged that while the series' writers like to allude to a wider DC universe, the focus on the show will always be on Clark Kent and his struggles as the Man of Steel. "I mean, this is a Superman show. We have brought in some other characters, like you said, Vicki’s from Gotham, there’s some mentions of Gotham. But, for us, the whole point of this is, it’s about Superman," she said. "It’s about Lois, and Jimmy, and the focus is always going to be on them. We love Superman so much. I’m excited to see [Batman:] Caped Crusader when that comes out. Definitely, there’s still going to be some more mentions of Gotham, so keep an eye out. But, at the end of the day, Superman is our hero. Superman and Clark are who we love the most. And it’s who we’ve spent a couple of years writing now, so it’s what we love."
With My Adventures With Superman wrapping up its first season, fans are already looking to the future. Warner Bros. Discovery has confirmed that it's already ordered a second installment of the animated show but details on what to expect are still scarce. Campbell hasn't shied away from teasing the major events of Season 2, promising that fans will love what the creative team has cooked up. "We got the wonderful task of being able to make them both around the same time and I'm very excited for this. There's so much stuff in Season 2 that I think is gonna blow people's minds. So yeah, just stay tuned, keep watching," she said.
Positioned as a coming-of-age story about a young Clark Kent learning to function as an adult while also juggling the immense power and responsibility of being the Man of Steel, My Adventures With Superman has quickly become a favorite show among fans of the character. Starring Jack Quaid as the titular superhero, critics have praised its animation style, love of the source material, and its compelling vocal performances.
My Adventures With Superman Season 1 is now streaming on Max. Season 2 does not yet have a confirmed release date.
