The season one conclusion of My Adventures With Superman introduced General Zod, featuring the ultimate confrontation between Clark Kent and General Lane, and hinted at yet another traditional Superman antagonist. After escaping Task Force X and saving the city from the Parasite, Clark sought to move on with his life by inviting Lois and Jimmy to the Kents’ for Thanksgiving. Without realising it, Clark also invited Lois Lane’s father, who happened to be the General. My Adventures With Superman episode 10 was tense from beginning to end, despite Jimmy Olsen’s best efforts to calm everyone down due to the quiet confrontation between Clark and the General.
It was only the start of one of Superman’s most trying days when he learned that Lois Lane from My Adventures With Superman was the General’s daughter. Earth was assaulted by a horde of Kryptonian robots, from drones to mechas, much as it had done decades earlier. The struggle was the hardest Superman had ever faced, and once Clark contracted Kryptonite, it became much more challenging. Despite Superman’s survival, the issues are still very much present. Now that the invader from Krypton is aware of Earth’s hero, he or she will launch another attack. Here is what the conclusion of Season 1 of My Adventures With Superman implies for the programme going into Season 2.
My Adventures With Superman’s Season 1 Ending Explained
It has been done multiple times in Superman adaptations, notably in the DCEU’s Man of Steel, for General Zod to survive the destruction of Krypton and come back to battle Kal-El. But Zod from My Adventures with Superman seems to be acting differently. A fleet of Kryptonian drones and mechas are being commanded by the legendary Superman antagonist, who is using them to conquer worlds. General Zod will certainly launch his own assault on Earth in season two of My Adventures With Superman since he was shocked to find that Earth repelled a Kryptonian invasion.
Although Brainiac may have been involved, General Zod is in charge of the army that attacked Earth in My Adventures With Superman episode 10. In some of the mythologies surrounding Superman, Brainiac assaulted Krypton before the planet was obliterated and seized Argo City. Brainiac was formed in Krypton in alternate timelines, like the DC Animated Universe. The Kryptonian robots who battled Superman in My Adventures With Superman all had Brainiac-like designs, therefore the latter theory seems to be the correct one. The recognisable three-dot Brainiac logo emerged in front of Jor-El, adding to the evidence that Superman’s adversary is connected to Krypton’s army. Brainiac would fit in perfectly because the antagonists in My Adventures With Superman were primarily centred on technology.
General Lane, sometimes referred to as the General, had his opportunity to end Superman’s life. Superman was not the Kryptonian that murdered many of Sam Lane’s companions in the past, but the General still thought Metropolis’s hero was another alien invader about to assault Earth. General Lane has precise instructions from Task Force X leader Amanda Waller to find and assassinate the Man of Steel. The tenth episode of My Adventures With Superman did not have a redemption story for Lois Lane’s father, although the General did hold off on killing Superman because of Lois. General Lane deceived Waller and released Superman, however, it is uncertain where Sam Lane will end up next.
The revelation that Jimmy Olsen is suddenly wealthy was one of the season 1 finale of My Adventures With Superman’s most unexpected plot twists. Jimmy sold the Daily Planet the Flamebird, his news-focused web channel. At the start of the season, Olsen only had a few fans, but after Superman entered the picture, the Flamebird rose to fame all around the world. Millions of cash were exchanged when Jimmy Olsen sold the Flamebird to the Daily Planet, completely altering the character moving into season 2. Even great was the way Jimmy handled the news with such casualness. We’ll have to wait and watch how millionaire Olsen will change.
Krypton appears to have been a planet of conquerors in My Adventures With Superman. It is plausible to assume that General Zod was operating on behalf of the planet and not as a renegade soldier given that he and his troops assaulted Earth prior to Krypton’s explosion. Jor-El was questioned by Kal-El over the real purpose of his visit to Earth. Since Jor-El is still speaking in Kryptonian, it is frequently difficult to understand what he is saying. Jor-El apologised for something, though, and made it plain that he would never intentionally harm Kal-El.
It is still unknown if Kal-El was brought to Earth with the intention of conquest and whether Jor-El was involved. Jor-El and Lara agreed that Krypton could have been a planet of conquerors. Perhaps Brainiac and General Zod intended Kryptonians to rule over several planets, but Kal-El’s parents merely wanted him to be protected. Many of the unresolved issues surrounding Jor-El and Krypton in general from My Adventures With Superman may be addressed in season 2.
