How HBO Max Saved a Piece of SUPERMAN History - Jack Kirby’s Funeral
Рет қаралды 53,787
Күн бұрынIn "Superman: The Animated Series," Dan Turpin was visually based on comics legend Jack Kirby, who had recently passed. So it was only fitting for the fictional "Kirby" to have his funeral attended by...a bunch of his creations and influences. And guess what? The new HD release of this episode TOTALLY restored these cameos!
Special thanks to our voiceover guests!

The characters/people were there because they were important to Jack Kirby. I don't think continuity should matter much there. The Fantastic Four attended the funeral, but otherwise, they don't exist in the DCAU. If you really want an in-universe explanation, then I would suggest something like this: Mr. Fantastic was monitoring the multiverse and found out about the upcoming funeral in a different world. He then built a machine to transport everyone there, so they could pay their respects. Then, everyone went back to their own worlds.

@Will N Isn’t that more like the Squadron Supreme? Marvel characters who are clearly based on DC’s Justice League, but are still considered separate characters. Earth-8 would be the other way around, then.

Apokolips Now is my favorite arc of the series. STAS (and the DCAU in general) for me is still number 1 at adapting the Fourth World. How they adapted the New Gods and how their send off for Dan Turpin here was a great tribute to Jack Kirby, the King that both DC and Marvel, and comics in general owe much to. Adding back all the cameos of his creations and friends is a great touch though I hope they put back the dedication card.

If that was the case he probably be brought up. Tony stark could still be a business man that owns a company that probably isn’t big enough to be mentioned in passing. And the Fantastic four could just be a normal family. But Mattie you might be on to something with nick fury being part of Caddmus. We don’t know everything about it.

I had heard about this funeral scene being redone after it had aired once, but I didn't know the reason until now. I had heard that it was redone because the characters were off model, which was obviously not what really happened. In a strange coincidence, the 2003 4Kids Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon also had a Jack Kirby tribute episode ("The King") which also was altered after its original airing. It's an adaptation of one of the Mirage TMNT comics, where Donatello meets an artist named Kirby (who's drawn to look pretty much like Jack Kirby). This Kirby has a magic crystal that he has attached to his pencil, that will bring his drawings to life. Don and Kirby are transported (via a portal that had also become real after Kirby drew it) to the world where these living drawings end up after they disappear from ours, and Kirby sacrifices his chance to go home so that Don can return. Before the portal closes forever, a piece of paper flies out which Don picks up. In the originally aired version, Don immediately looks at the paper and sees its a note from Kirby with a drawing of the Turtle, with the message: "Life at best is bittersweet". Then the episode abruptly ends. (I think there was a Jack Kirby dedication card at the end, too.) In the revised version (which, IIRC, Peter Laird paid for out of his own pocket), an extra scene (that was also in the original comic) is added, where Donatello and Raphael have a conversation when Don gets home, and only after that does he read the note from Kirby. This revised version was on the original DVD release. (Not sure if the other version was ever seen again.) This story had also previously been adapted into a children's storybook back in the 80s or 90s (during the height of Turtlemania), using the 1980s cartoon design but otherwise pretty much the same as the original comic story.

I started thinking when you talked about why Steve Roger's and Tony Stark never made to JL and if Nick Fury was on Cadmus. I'm a pretty big fan of both Marvel and DC (although more Marvel) and especially their TV adaptations (Avengers:EMH and DCAU). I have dreamt these past months how would a shared universe of those cartoons be. Maybe just one universe inside a lot of ones where Iron Man and Batman work one day to fight Bane and the next one all JLU and Avengers go to space to fight Darkseid and Thanos. I know there are some comics exploring that idea but I don't think they get into that a lot. I wonder, specifically with this TV series, how would a shared universe be? Can both Justice League and Avengers coexist? Will the Avengers Breakout affect other prisons (maybe Arkham but they always escape so, meh)? We will have two secret invasions (Skrull and Imperium)? How would Cadmus affect both teams? Maybe some DC villains join the Masters of Evil and Marvel villains join the Legion of Doom? Personally I have the idea of Copperhead joining the Serpent Society and some shared origin for Amazo and the Super Adaptoid. But well, some of my thoughts. I think this is an interesting idea but hey, if you want to have a debate it may be fun. Fantastic video, like always, btw

until you guys come up with something compelling, my headcanon is gonna be that the Marvel cameos at Turpin's funeral are just mundane versions of their civilian personas--Fury could be an old army buddy of Turpin's, for example, maybe they served in Korea in something though i guess the apparent Captain America cameo could actually be Hank Heywood XDDDDDD

Restoring Kirby's creations back in to the second part of Apokolips now for Turpin's funeral was a must, it always should have been there. but deleting the Kirby inmemoriam in the new edit is heartless from HBO MAX. Also probably done by some soulless hack editing that had no idea what he was doing. time to do another edit goober, restore those backgrounds and replace that King memoriam. Also, Timm was always a fan of placing cameos from himself and his crew in episodes within the Timmverse animations. But Danial Terpin rules them all. all hail the king!

Do you think the physical release of the remastered will include Brainiac attacks and if so do you think they would re-dub it with the original voice if lex and brainiac (maybe also mercy)

I wish Jack Kirby was as popular as Stan Lee. One thing that probably doesn’t help is many of the fans of comics of my generation were born after Kirby died.

imagine a world where executives interested in not harming their audience actually FORBID you from cheapening death by not showing it or just bringing them back later. Where they were actually against censorship and the harm it does to everyone. wouldn't that be something. For them to not be clueless as fuck about right and wrong.
