Hello, everyone! I am incredibly grateful for all of the kind and humble words that you've shared about our short film. Your positive feedback is beyond anything I could have expected! For those who are interested, I want to share the whole score of the film from our incredibly talented composer, Thanos Papadellis. I hope that more people have the opportunity to experience and appreciate this beautiful music. Thank you again for your support!

Honestly? Bit refreshing to see a Superman who was severely hurt and it strengthened his resolve instead of him going evil.

Fantastic job on the animation brother!

If this was a trailer for a superman game I’d be pre ordering this masterpiece right now

"inspired by Kingdom Come Superman and the work of the legendary Alex Ross."
I love how I was able to see the Alex Ross in this short before reading that in the description. Good job.👍

"Rage against loss."

This writing is phenomenal.

It’s crazy how the fans make better productions than the studios and people that are actually supposed to bring these things to life.

[eduardoclemente]

This fan film deserves a lot more repercussion, it's the best I've seen in a long time. Congratulations to everyone, it's just amazing.

[sims]

Its refreshing to see a Superman who still holds firmly on hope. Beautiful work

[samuraichicken]

Finally, a movie that captures the essence of Superman. Pity Hollywood can't do it.

[bocikgame]

That's how DC Universe should look like & feel... Keep up a good work! KUDOS!

[benjamindespas]

The representation and iconization of superman in this short is incredible ! We can feel the presence of Alex Ross' superman just like he came right out of the comic but you still managed to make it original and refeshing. This is truly an impressive work !

Warner Animation needs to take up notice of this and adapt Kingdom Come in this style

[clark-cant]

You definitely should do a full movie, this is amazing

[nurhishammursidi]

This cgi is way better than the flash movie...

[brownbalak]

My man, this is just crazy amazing. I liked the Kingdom come era superman, since it's not been shown much in live action. Thank you, Sir.

[darksektor]

NOW, THIS IS A MOVIE I WOULD PAY TO really great the feeling, tone, epicness, and music... this would be a great successor to henry's man of steel as a side story, a side kingdom come universe story.
