History YMMV / MyAdventuresWithSuperman

*** The most popular theory is that Alex is the show's version of Lex Luthor (whose full name is Alexander Joseph Luthor). His outfit's purple color scheme (which granted, he shares with his boss), his reddish-brown hair [[note]]Yes, Lex has/had red hair. This was most apparent in the '90s, where he was posing as his own son in a younger body[[/note]], his knowledge of alien tech, and the fact the show wasn't afraid to give a YoungerAndHipper treatment to Deathstroke are all cited as support for this theory. While the show's creators have stated in the past that they were told to stay away from using Luthor for the first season, their remarks were firmly about him as the BigBad or a major villain in general, which [[ExactWords would still hold true if he was Alex given that he's merely a henchman]]. "Zero Day, Part 1" provided even more fuel to the "Alex is Lex Luthor" fire, where Alex returns and rants about Superman being a potential danger to Metropolis in a manner eerily reminiscent of Luthor. As revealed in the Season 2 trailer, [[spoiler:this would be proven true as Alex would have himself be referred to as Lex Luthor in his actions against Superman.]]

*** It got to the point that some fans used to Korean pop culture assumed she didn't look Korean or East Asian "enough" i.e. with lighter skin if that was the intent, on top of the show being animesque to begin with. But then RealityIsUnrealistic, and plenty of Koreans look browner than their media would indicate, plus Lois is Korean-''American'' not Korean, so her culture, environment etc. would most likely be different.

* HilariousInHindsight: The first episode has Jimmy ask Clark why their alarm clocks keep [[DoesNotKnowHisOwnStrength "exploding"]]. In "My Adventures with Mad Science", [[spoiler:we find out that Jimmy already knew ''exactly'' why.]]

* JustHereForGodzilla: Many viewers have given the show a watch just to see a tomboy Lois Lane. Additionally based on clips circulating the internet, many also see the show just to see her and Clark's ShipTease moments.

* TheyCopiedItSoItSucks: People were quick to negatively compare Lois' anger at Clark for keeping his identity as Superman a secret from her to similar plot points in ''WesternAnimation/MastersOfTheUniverseRevelation'' and ''WesternAnimation/{{Invincible|2021}}''. Considering it wasn't received very well in either of the latter to begin with, the incident in this series only served to make people even more tired of the trend along with the constant fanbase arguments that spawn from said trend.

** Alex's hair and glasses have led to people comparing him to Pidge and Matt from ''WesternAnimation/VoltronLegendaryDefender'', and Hachioji from ''Manga/DontToyWithMeMissNagatoro''. The latter leads to people joking that if he's indeed Lex Luthor, then Miss Teschmacher or Mercy Graves should look like Nagatoro. And when a trailer for Season 2 revealed him [[spoiler:as Lex Luthor]] in Season 2, people jokingly compared him to WebVideo/{{Lythero}}'s streamer appearance, joking that the Youtuber had hard fallen off for trying to start beef with Superman, something [[https://twitter.com/Lythero/status/1785359913734086726 Lythero himself would joke about]].

* FanartAtFirstSight:
** Reactions to this version's Lois Lane, whose design is a TomboynessUpgrade over the norm, have been positive enough for artists to make fanart over this fact.
** Likewise, this version of Clark, who's been perceived as a well-dressed, lovable klutz, has also received his fair share of fanart love. Unsurprisingly, with the aforementioned perception of his Lois, it's common to pair these two together.

** The show quickly developed one with ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'', despite having only a teaser and a few stills at the time, with many people noting how similar Lois looks to Luz. Some even joke that they're related or the same person. Similarly, Jimmy has been compared visually to Gus and Mr. Myxlplyx bears a resemblance to both the Collector and Amity. The show's lead art director Jane Bak formerly working on ''The Owl House'' certainly helps.
