Episode Notes |
| |
Based (very) loosely on The Death of Superman arc from the early 1990s. Much of the later storylines such as "Funeral For A Friend" and "Reign of the Supermen" are condensed drastically to fit into the movie's length.

The giant spider The Toyman pilots, which is stopped by the renegade Superman impostor, is a nod to an infamous development that occurred during Kevin Smith's tenure writing the Superman Lives script. At the time, the film's producer Jon Peters had insisted that Smith use in his script, a furry dog, a gay robot, and Superman had to fight a giant "thangarian snarebeast", aka a giant spider. Smith's script was never made, and Peters eventually used a giant spider for the 1999 Will Smith movie The Wild Wild West.
