“Reign of the Supermen” is the follow-up to “The Death Of Superman”. Both movies are equally enjoyable. This one has quite a lot going on and it maybe could have done with being longer but it still managed to keep things entertaining.

After Superman’s demise, new ‘Supermen’ have appeared. Who are these mysterious new beings? Is one of them the ‘real’ Superman? Are these new ‘heroes’ friendly or are they even more dangerous than Doomsday? The world is eventually plunged into a new crisis when at least one of them is revealed to be orchestrating a plot that threatens the world as we know it.

We have quite a lot of characters in here as we have the Justice League, Lex Luthor and Lois Lane as well as the new Supermen. Of course, Superman does eventually appear. I liked the Eradicator one but he probably gets the least amount of time to shine and that’s a real shame. I like the designs of all the Supermen. We also have some other villains thrown in there and the whole movie manages to stay relatively simplistic considering how many different threads it has. The animation looks fairly good on all the characters.

“Reign Of Supermen” feels like its going to just spin out of control because there is just so much going on (stuff that I cannot really explain without spoiling it). There’s a lot more going on than in the last movie but it seems to handle it a little better. The evil scheme seems unnecessarily complicated as well as some of the villain’s motivations but I still had a reasonable time with this film. It crams a lot of action in it considering how much story it also has to cram in. They have apparently released a version where you can see this and “The Death Of Superman” edited together as one movie. It might be a good idea considering how you need to see both but it might also be a little overwhelming.
