"Apokolips...Now!" was later altered from its original airing on February 7, 1998. Originally, [[Dan Turpin]]'s funeral was a homage to [[Jack Kirby]] and featured several of his comic creations as attendees to the funeral including [[Nick Fury]], the [[Fantastic Four]], [[Big Barda]], [[Mister Miracle|Scott Free]], [[Orion (character)|Orion]] and others, alongside Kirby's friends and fans [[Mark Evanier]], [[Bruce Timm]], [[Paul Dini]], [[Alex Ross]], his father Norman Ross, and [[Stan Lee]]. These characters were later removed and the scene pacing was re-edited for subsequent airings and its DVD release on ''Superman: The Animated Series'' Volume 3 Disc 3. Neither DC nor Warner ever commented on the decision to alter this particular scene, but it has been speculated that copyright issues regarding the use of the likenesses of [[Marvel Comics]] characters and the long-time rivalry between the two companies might have motivated the deletion. When ''Superman: The Animated Series'' was released on [[HBO Max]] and [[Blu-ray]] in 2021, the original version was used.
