HBO Max shocked everyone by passing on Batman: Caped Crusader, though that recently found a new home on Amazon Prime Video. 

Now, a press release (via Toonado.com) has confirmed that My Adventures With Superman has also shifted to a new network: Adult Swim. The home of Rick and Morty, the DC series joins the "late-night primetime hours" block, with reruns airing on Toonami. There's no news on a premiere date, though we're hoping news on that front drops imminently. 

When we learned My Adventures with Superman was heading to HBO Max and Cartoon Network, it was described as an all-new kids and family animated series that follows the action-packed, comedic and romantic adventures of Superman and Lois Lane. The show received a two-season series order. 

According to the official synopsis, "My Adventures with Superman catches up with twenty-somethings Clark Kent, the bright and driven Lois Lane, and their best friend Jimmy Olsen as they begin to discover who they are and everything they can accomplish together as an investigative reporting team at the Daily Planet."

In this serialized coming-of-age story, we follow Clark as he builds his secret Superman identity and embraces his role as the hero of Metropolis - and perhaps the world. Lois, now growing into a star investigative journalist, takes aspiring photographer Jimmy Olsen under her wing. All the while, Clark and Lois are falling in love, sharing adventures, taking down bad guys, stumbling over secrets, and discovering what it means to be Superman and Lois Lane.

Jack Quaid (The Boys) and Alice Lee (Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist) lead the voice cast as Clark Kent and Lois Lane, respectively.

We're certainly intrigued by the series and aren't surprised about it being taken off HBO Max. Since DC Studios was formed, it's been made clear the plan is for future animated TV shows to be set in the DCU and that obviously won't be the case with My Adventures with Superman, especially with Superman: Legacy on the way.

Hopefully, we'll have more news to share with you on this one soon.

@dracula - Mindy Kaling wasn't even a creative force behind Velma. She didn't write a single episode lol

Ill give it a shot but this does not feel like the show Superman deserves for his return to solo animation after over 2 decades

Interesting that it's going to Adult Swim and not Cartoon Network, I imagine it will be slightly retooled to better suit the slightly older demographic. I'm excited for this, it's been a while since DC made a Superman cartoon.

Well, Adult Swim is part of HBO Max where I live so doesn't make a difference to me.

Also the title of the show makes it sound like it will be about Lois, but the premise seems to hint it will be more Clark focused. Now I don't know what to expect

I'm not sure if losing the dynamic of Lois being the veteran reporter and Clark being the wide-eyed newbie is gonna go over so well. But we'll see. Already has a season 2, so someone must like it somewhere.

Hey, is that the black Jimmy Olsen and lesbian Lois? (I know Supergirl had a black Jimmy and he was great in the role.) So who's going to be trans?

@DenvertheDino - "romantic adventures of Superman and Lois Lane"

Short hair doesn't make her a lesbian my dude lol

@DenvertheDino - Having short hair doesn't actually turn you into a lesbian. Are you still living in 2001?

@Toonstrack - I wish. Iron Maiden released their Rock in Rio album, after hitting a homerun with Brave New World. It was a good world back then. Not perfect in any way, but good. Better than now.

They should’ve made Superman bisexual. HBO would’ve loved that

@KaptainKhaos - Jerry: And it's gonna be a scorcher in Atlanta today, but tomorrow wear your jackets because it's going to be cold. Then for the Sunday expect freezing rain in morning and summer like weather in the evening.

Georgia weather in a nut shell.

They really don’t care about Superman and it’s sad. He should have as much animation investment as Bats

If they're to make someone black, why not Lois? Why Jimmy? The redhead racechanging is something that I don't like.

WB... sitting on a gold mine of characters... could literally rake in billions a day......

....but has NO [frick]ING CLUE what to do with ANY OF THEM!

DC characters just.... floundering. Wasted.

"Obviously isn't going to be the case for my adventures of superman". since this & caped crusader weren't apart of james gunn lineup, I wouldn't blame u for assuming this isn't set in the DCU. I think it makes since to put them both in the DCU as prequels to the movies since they're both confirmed to take place early in their careers anyway.
