The things the recent Superman episode did right:
Monsieur Mallah and the Brain: "okay, yes, we are mad scientists and maybe a little evil, but at least we're not cops/the military-industrial complex."
Also them being gay and saying fuck this shit, we're going somewhere where we can be married mad scientists in peace.
Jimmy KNEW ALL ALONG becuse of course he did, he's Clark's best friend! He's known him for years!
Sam Lane being presented as this incredibly ruthless leader, but his body is just so dad. Look at him. He's just a dad. A dad who says things like "we will rip Superman from the sky and bury him."

Never thought a gay relationship between a French gorilla and a German cyborg would make me cry today

(SPOILERS if you haven't seen the show yet):
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Lois Lane has a cut out clip of Vicki Vale. Vicki Vale is a journalist in Gotham City. Her first appearance was in Batman #49 (1948) as seen in the panel here (W: Bill Finger, A: Lew Sayre and Bob Kane, I: Charles Paris, L: Ira Schnapp).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Looks like Jimmy is a fan of Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask. Good video game taste.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Jimmy mentions a psychic starfish and the one starfish in the DC universe who is psychic is Starro the Conqueror, who's first appearance is in Brave and the Bold 28 (1960) (the cover art here is done by Mike Sekowsky, Murphy Anderson, and Ira Schnapp) and has the power to mind control people.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Lois, after barging into Perry White's office about a story, mentions Mt. Simonson. This is a neat name drop to Superman: The Man of Steel writer Louise Simonson, one of the nicest comic book writers you'll ever meet. She helped co-create John Henry Irons a.k.a Steel with artist of the Superman: The Man of Steel comic, Jon Bogdanove (really hope we get to see Irons in this show too).
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Jon Bogdanove also gets a name drop here as does...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Dan Jurgen, comic book writer and artist on the Superman comic in the 90s (also one of my favorite Superman artists).
Now who are these kids that call themselves the Newskid Legion? Well, they are a VERY deep DC cut and reference to the Newsboy Legion back in the 1940s. The group was created by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby, LEGENDARY comic book creators.
Tumblr media
The page here is from Who's Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe #16 (1986) with the art by Jack Kirby and Karl Kesel. Most of the Newskid Legion is named after the Newsboy Legion members
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Gabby and Big Words here share names with their Newsboy Legion counterparts as does Flip Johnson...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
who shares names with Walter "Flip" Johnson here on the cover of Superman's Pal Jimmy Olson #137 (1971) which was done by Jack Kirby, Neal Adams, and Gaspar Saladino.
Tumblr media
Patty, the cartoonist of the Newskid Legion homages this panel from Adventures of Superman #500 (1993) (W: Karl Kesel, P: Tom Grummet, I: Doug Hazelwood, C: Glenn Whitmore, L: Albert DeGuzman), the first appearance of Superboy, Conner Kent/ Kon-El.
Tumblr media
But who is the one below that drawing? We'll his name is in Big Word's word puzzle, in the show. It's Jim Harper, the Guardian.
Tumblr media
Jim Harper becomes the Newsboy Legion's legal guardian despite their causing trouble for him. The page here is from Star Spangled Comics #7, the Newsboy Legion and the Guardian's first appearance, by Joe Simon, Jack Kirby, and Whitney Ellsworth. You might've seen the Guardian on the recent Young Justice cartoon.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
When Lois, Clark, and Jimmy go investigate about the smuggled robots in Metropolis, Jimmy makes a reference to super intelligent gorillas in France. This is a subtle hint at Monsieur Mallah, the Doom Patrol villain who will be in the show along with his partner, the Brain. Both made their first appearance in Doom Patrol #86 (1964) .
Tumblr media
The cover art here is done by Arnold Drake, Bob Brown, and Ira Schnapp.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Later in the episode we see Clark receive his powers and he is surrounded with electricity, giving off Superman Blue vibes when in the comics, Superman gained electricity powers and became Electric Blue Superman who's first appearance was in Superman #123 (1997) (cover art by Ron Frenz, Joe Rubenstein, Patrick Martin, and Todd Klein.

Our squishy gray matter conducts its activities through an orchestra of waves. With many tasks operating in tandem, how our brain keeps distinct oscillations from tangling has long been a puzzle. Now US researchers have found the direction of traveling brain waves align with their type of task, with learning processes flowing one way and recall actions bouncing back the other direction. "These findings… help us better understand how the brain supports a wide range of behaviors that involve precisely coordinated interactions between brain regions," explains US National Institutes of Health neurologist Uma Mohan.

DID YOU KNOW!?
Tumblr media
...That these two characters are not only from the comics, but that they are supervillains, and that they're a couple in the comics, and that they've been a couple in the comics since 1990?
Tumblr media
It's pretty wild. I didn't know either of these characters existed until this show, so I kind of assumed that the MAWS creatives were taking massive liberties with an otherwise obscure pair of characters. While they have taken liberties, that's mostly in service to these characters making sense in the very early days of the MAWS universe; it seems like they're being set up to become villains later rather than being villains now.
This is fascinating to me. Maybe it's because the Internet is so full of jabbering, entitled nitwits shouting "woke woke woke" to all and sundry whenever something comes out and doesn't feature a pair of sexy, faceless robots, but some part of my brain watched this episode and assumed that the relationship between the two was probably something made-up specifically for the show. But no. Turns out it's not, and it was a very pleasant surprise to learn that.
I'll be interested to see where these two go in future episodes and seasons, because it very much reads like they're being set up to be future supervillains with massive potential for a Jimmy-focused storyline there.

DPXDC Prompt #23
The first time the black hole gets activated a figure is thrown out of the portal. A young Danny Fenton straight from the portal, soon Monsieur Mallah and the Brain, wind up taking him in, soon they find the kid has powers and doesn’t age… Danny decides to take it upon himself to protect the two that took him in.
After meeting Superman he decided to stay with him and his friends instead of following through, reasoning that others need help now, his friends are safe in their new dimension and helping people and protecting is what he does! What if Danny is the one the General sees as the one to start the apocalypse?
