What happens

All-Star Superman is a 2011 American animated superhero film based on the comic book series of the same name by Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely. Released direct-to-video by Warner Bros. Animation on February 22, 2011, it is the tenth film of the DC Universe Animated Original Movies. It is the first film in the series to not receive a PG-13 rating from the Motion Picture Association, instead being rated PG for "sequences of action and violence, language including brief innuendo, and some sensuality". It is also one of the final projects by writer Dwayne McDuffie, released the day after his death. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
