One minor note, the fact about power girl's chest actually is true, but it's not about her chest size. It's about the size of the window in her costume on her chest. It was the opening there that was made bigger, and what was being referred to, not the chest itself

Match in Young Justice actually inverts the whole "clone of a clone" by being the FIRST clone of Superman before Superboy. But because he was created purely from Kal's DNA, he wasn't as sable as half-human Superboy. In later years, he would devolve physically as well (pale skin, swollen limbs and deformed facial features) and essentially become the show's take on Bizarro.

Something weird I noticed throughout this video is that a lot of the cancelled Superman movies tried to use Brainiac. Maybe that’s the real “Superman Curse”.

keep making these man, I always love how you make these iceberg charts yourself, must take goddamn hours in research, we appreciate your commitment

51:06 TDKR Batman backhanding Rorschach is the last thing I expected but that's funny as hell. Also, Supergirl sure is packing in that art.

Absolute legend, literally binge watch and rewatch your videos so often. Thank you so much for the hard work, literally can’t wait to watch this :)

The idea of Superman's dad thinking the Kryptonian way is best and wanting his son to impose that on Earth for the betterment of everyone is an interesting idea, cuz think about it Krypton is usually portrayed as a perfect technologically advanced utopia, maybe Supes' dad really would think it'd be worth it for Superman to basically turn Earth into a 2nd Krypton, plus in every continuity he sends Superman to Earth with a bunch of knowledge from their race adding to how that would make some sense if a writer were to use the idea again someday, hell you could probably even retcon this idea into the main continuity if you really wanted that's how interesting it is

[BETTERTHANMTV]

The concept art for Superman lives is so beautiful, I wish we could at least get an animated version

[mountnstream]

Both congratulations for the milestone; and thank you for a video that's about Superman that doesn't involve too much negativity, like the tired argument that he's "boring and unrelatable, " but focuses on the weird and fun parts. Although the criticism of there being too many "evil Supermen" in media I 100% approve being highlighted, even though I wouldn't blame DC for since it's their character.

We need a x-men iceberg. There’s so many things you can talk about

[MistarZtv]

Man this video was so fun to watch, having been watching CasuallyComics for years now its so fun seeing these more obscure and really out there superman/supergirl stories and facts.

[adriancastaneda]

I gotta say man, including old commercials from back in the day always make me nostalgic for that sort of stuff.
Love your videos dude, they’re great to binge while I work.

[johnofonett]

You are an absolute legend, dude! Your icebergs are the most in-depth and enjoyable on all of YouTube! Congrats on 50k!

Superman not getting a movie because the director was scared of flying is like a Batman movie getting canceled because the director was scared of bats. That’s honestly pretty funny.

[grug]

Thank you so much for making these videos, Pigpen! These iceberg vids you make are absurdly entertaining to me, and I always put them on whenever I see a new episode. Merry Christmas dude!

[thespookymage]

Another masterful video! I am glad you still do iceburg content, it takes a lot of work but nobody does them like you do.

[Ray-cr]

Thank you for making this one, my Dad put me onto SUPERMAN, as he was a kid, baby when Superman was released, he was born in 36, r.i.p. Pops and thanks for everything 1936 - 2022. Superman > Batman anyday and would always kick Batman ass.

[TevyaSmolka]

I am still pissed that we never got that Superman family animated show because that show could’ve been great and tons of fun.

[dravenmartinez]

I love how you go in depth with every entry, and also no joke entries.

I would pay so much money to go to the universe where Muhammad Ali played Superman and Christoper Lee played Zod
