Great episode. Paul Dini gave us quite a present this year and I hope he's back for more. Between his animated series work and his work with Alex Ross I'm becoming more convinced that he's maybe one of 5 writers on the planet that truly get DC characters and how to execute them

I loved pretty much everything about this episode, and I enjoyed that Clark is such a big kid when it comes to Christmas.

Basically, it was cute. But it was cute in that really sincere and charming way. The kind of way that you want out of a Christmas themed story.

I enjoyed this episode as well. At least this Superman acts like he is suppose to, unlike his own comic. All the stories were really sweet, hopefully they will show it every year :)

Yeah, it was great to see Clark again. Not that I mind the powers and the super-adventure, but it's nice to get down to Earth for these slice of life stories. Always fun to see Smallville again too, and what better place for the Martian Manhunter to learn the true meaning of Christmas than in Superman's hometown? :) That, and the Flash's herculean efforts to get the orphans the toy they wanted are hilarious. ;)

Good one-shot episode..

at least whenever JL does a characterization ep like this one, it feels like a reward after all those adventures..

Whereas, in X-men: evolution it feels like a bane when you have dweebs like Kitty and Kurt (nightcrawler) not contributing to any story but having "Kurt is like totally getting fur on my _____" squabbling "just to show their characters"... Sheesh!!

My favorite side-sroty of the 3 is the Flash/Humanite/Rubber Duckie one..

heh

Clark still believes in santa claus  :lol:  .. (wonder why he didn't track him down at the north pole all these years)..
