This series is the third animated Superman series (the second was the Filmation-produced The New Adventures of Superman). It is also notable for being the first appearance of the Superman mythos following John Byrne's major relaunch of the character. The series reflected the new conception with a measured fidelity, such as having his major recurring enemy, Lex Luthor, as a corrupt billionaire industrialist as in the comics. Like the comics, Luthor is fully aware that the ring he wears is fashioned with a kryptonite stone, which he uses to keep Superman from attacking or apprehending him (although this required very close proximity to work).
