Superman 75th Celebration Panel And The Homage Video From The Man Of Steel BluRay
Nikolai Fomich writes for Bleeding Cool:
Bruce Timm, Paul Levitz, Dan DiDio, Mike Carlin, and Superman Unbound's Molly Quinn were panel guests at the Superman 75th celebration at NYCC, hosted by DC Entertainment head Gary Miereanu.
The panel discussed what makes Superman iconic and their feelings about Man of Steel. Timm didn't have a problem with the killing of Zod and said he came away from the film thinking that there will always be fresh interpretations for retelling these characters' stories. DiDio liked the fact that Jor-El was a badass in the film.
Interesting tidbits included Dan DiDio's defining Superman moment – his eating of Kryptonite from Kryptonite Nevermore – and Paul Levitz's take on why there aren't so many Superman villains – "Out of all the heroes, how stupid do you have to be to pick on Superman?"
As for Lois and Superman's own romance, DiDio promises that they haven't forgotten.
The panel showed a preview for the Superman: 75th Anniversary Short, featuring homages to every Superman era produced by Bruce Timm and Zach Snyder. The short will be available on the Man of Steel BluRay Combo Pack, to be released on 11/12/2013. Here are highlights from the preview:
