Enjoy your reign while you may, Superman. For as surely as night follows day, there comes a time when even gods must die. - Lex Luthor

The first comic book geek I’ve ever met was my P.E. teacher when I was in 5th grade. He talked about Superman all the time, but I wasn’t really interested in comics back then. Okay, I was. I was into Archie comics when I was in grade school. Betty and Veronica were teh hot! Anyway, this P.E. teacher dude finally got my attention when, in front of the class, he took out his trade paperback of The Death of Superman saga. He let some of us read a few pages of his precious TPB, and thus, the seeds of my comic book geekery were planted.

A decade and a half later, the seeds have grown into an oak of a comic book geek. And this oak is geeking out on the thing that practically gave it its life: The Death of Superman in animated form. Here’s the trailer for the Superman Doomsday straight-to-DVD animated feature:

The movie features the voices of Anne Heche as Lois Lane, James Marsters (the dude who played Brainiac on Smallville) as Lex Luthor, and Adam Baldwin as Clark Kent/Superman. Awesome, right? Well, you know what’s gonna make it more awesome? If they release it here in the Philippines. Come on, Warner! Make it happen! Chop chop!
