I was a teenager and was really surprised at the high quality of the cartoon. I don’t think I was aware at the time that those cartoons were meant to be shown in theaters, so my main point of comparison were the reruns of the 60s Superman cartoons, and the contrast in quality was staggering to me. I also noticed the clear influence the Superman cartoons had on the nineties Batman animated show.

I was particularly impressed with the quality of detail in the Superman cartoon.. simply amazing when you look at some others of the era that are simplistic and use canned cartoons.. anyways
