After almost a year since beginning this project, I finally managed to finish it. Seeing as how Injustice 2 just came out, I figured this was a good time to re-visit the beginning of Superman's path to tyranny. Continuing from the video 'Superman Kills The Joker', this video covers the aftermath of the tragedy in Metropolis as well some of the major events from the 'Year One' story arc.

Batman voice heavily inspired by the one and only Kevin Conroy.

For those interested in the journey that led to this video.
Although I had read 'Year One', nothing really got under way until I heard the music. Before I had any plans to do this video, one depressing night listening to music on Youtube, I stumbled upon the amazing music tracks 'Esveta' & 'Our Reckoning' by Greg Dombrowski from Secession studios. Once I listened to those on repeat, I couldn't help but picture the final set pieces seen in this video. I then found two other tracks 'Of Gods And Men' and 'Two Souls' which I thought thematically reflected the journey of Superman and Batman during this story.
After the motivation came about, it was time to edit the structure of the video.

Unfortunately I couldn't include the majority of the story for time and practicality reasons, but the main goal was to show the gradual decay of the Bruce & Clark's friendship. I found that the music actually did most of the work for me in that regard with its ability to tell a tragic story, which is why I cannot express enough appreciation to Greg Dombrowski and Secession Studios for being able to use. There were numerous setbacks unfortunately. University, work, finding voice actors, or even just life in general. The recording phases were lengthy and sometimes tedious, but I think it was all worth it.
Thanks to the people in my life who must have gotten sick of me talking about this project yet supported me nonetheless.
And I have to thank the voice actors I found on Reddit for their time and effort to help me put this together.

I hope you enjoy the video and I hope it inspires you to read the comic. Feel free to leave comments and feedback as I'm always looking to improve as a voice actor.
And hey, if you're creating something of your own and would like a voice, shoot me a message :)

    When the fans do a better job at adapting the source material than the official adaptation

    Green arrow: accidentally hits Superman’s father with arrow Superman: glowing red eyes You have chosen death
  • I’ve always thought an animated series would be perfect for the Injustice series and this is just further proof
  • Coming here after watching the disappointing animated movie is a breathe of fresh air. You guys did a better job at voice acting than anyone in the animated film.
  • @skyslasher2297
    4:24 you know something I realized if Bruce had joined Clark he’s could’ve talked to him reasoned with him with these decisions while there are tension they are still best friends and he could’ve talked him down when he goes too far

    Batman to Superman: "Stop, you're scaring them". Oh, the irony.
  • @malikdove4012
    I read the comic but , the audio really brings the emotion in it. When alfred f'ed up super man it sent chills down my spine. Classic material my dude. Dope af!!

    “There was going to be another Kryptonian like me. Someone who would have made me feel less alone. And I would have loved him.” Superboy: WTF dude!?
  • @jamestolbert1856
    6:07 the moment he died, the music dies down and all that’s left is their voices and the somber music
  • I never had a problem with superman going anti-hero mode, the problem began when full dictator mode took over. Just like Jasson todd said: " theres going far and going too far" and superman went carzy nutts too far
  • @JeremyBX
    6:05 great line delivery, you can feel the anger in his throat
  • "It always starts with one, but once you justify something once, you can do it again and again. It becomes easier" This line pretty much describes what superman did
  • @srivatsarao2817
    17:08 Superman broke batman’s back cause he was tired of him carrying the entire league. I felt the pain though.
