My Adventures with Superman did a superb job of diving into, and flourishing several plot points and storylines the series had introduced: Clark Kent's Kryptonian origin, Clark and Lois Lane's relationship, the trinity of Lois, Clark, and Jimmy Olsen making it as established reporters working for the Daily Planet, and so much more.
While the series was centered around Superman and friends, that does not mean we still did not pick out any cool Easter Egg teases placed throughout season - which could potentially lead to new and exciting storylines moving forward in Season 2.
Vicki Vale - a reporter who works for the Gotham Gazette, was introduced in the episode Zero Day Part 1 to write a piece about Superman, with Jimmy Olsen and Lois Lane tagging along as her apprentices.
Of course when the fan's heard "Gotham", expectations were surely raised toward a potential cameo - maybe even a mention of the Caped Crusader.
My Adventures with Superman Producer - Josephine Campbell, was asked in a recent interview on the Superman YouTube Channel (full Interview here), to touch base on this reference, and if there are currently any plans to include Batman in Season 2.
"Now, as soon as the word or the title, 'Gotham Gazette,' got thrown up, fans online jump straight to, ‘Batman, Batman, Batman.’ As a Superman fan, I’ve got nothing against Batman, but as a Superman fan, please tell me we’re going to be concentrating on Superman in Season 2…"
Campbell: "Oh yeah."
SH: "… Not going down that road of bringing in Batman and necessarily other characters along the line?"
Campbell: "I mean, this is a Superman show. We have brought in some other characters, like you said, Vicki’s from Gotham, there’s some mentions of Gotham. But, for us, the whole point of this is, it’s about Superman. It’s about Lois, and Jimmy, and the focus is always going to be on them. We love Superman so much. I’m excited to see [Batman:] Caped Crusader when that comes out. Definitely, there’s still going to be some more mentions of Gotham, so keep an eye out. But, at the end of the day, Superman is our hero. Superman and Clark are who we love the most. And it’s who we’ve spent a couple of years writing now, so it’s what we love."
