All-Star Superman set for animation

Christina Hendricks ("Mad Men") will voice Lois Lane in an animated adaptation of Grant Morrison's pretty delightful All-Star Superman storyline. I enjoyed how this story was able to adapt fantastical elements from the 50-60s Superman comics and avoid slipping into present day grim and grittiness.

James Denton will provide the voice of Superman. The cast also includes Anthony LaPlagia as Lex Luthor and Ed Asner as Perry White.
