The 10 best Superman projects that will never exist

Wherein I pick and choose creators to do things I think would be awesome.



1 The Adventures of Mxyzptlk in the Fifth Dimension!
A silent short film by Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends creator Craig McCracken.



2 Jimmy Olsen: Cub Reporter
Original graphic novel by Hergé.



3 The Planet
A novel about Metropolis and an editor in chief finding their way during the depression by Ernest Hemingway.



4 Superman
A song using Superman in a metaphor that actually wouldn't suck by E of the eels.


5 Rao: Last God of Krypton
A story about the god of Krypton's red sun by Mike Carey, who outdid the Sandman on Lucifer, and it's a shame not more people know that. And yes, I know I'm asking him to follow Gaiman a second time here, it'd still be awesome. I also know that title's been used, but it cool enough to steal.

It's late, so the other 5 tomorrow, guys.

I still want to see Glen Keane draw Superman, or better, do the lead animation on a Superman cartoon of some kind:

And yes, I believe his Superman would differ from his Tarzan, but still be a fresh, innovative take on the character.

I would read the hell out of a Herge Olsen.
