I found this 112-minute animated movie on Bluray at my public library. It isn't made with the super-realistic modern animation, but on Blu-Ray is super-clear and very enjoyable. I grew up in the 1950s and 1960s reading Superman and Superboy comics and this little animated movie was a nice blast to the past.
They use unknown actors for the voices, but they are very good. George Newbern voices Superman and Clark Kent while my favorite was Pauley Perrette with her raspy voice as Lois Lane.
The title comes from the group of 4 known as "The Elite", their leader is a British guy, Robin Atkin Downes as Manchester Black . When he told his genesis story, how he found out about his powers, he edited it to make it seem like he was just a good guy. But Superman eventually finds out he was not so good, and his plan was to take over enforcement for the world, using the approach "those who have the power make the rules", and that included killing those determined to be bad.
Superman's legacy has always been to avoid killing, so it was opposing concepts and opposing forces that make this story. His task is to neutralize them, let them live but find a way to remove their super powers.
It is a comic book story, nothing more, and it is fun to view for Superman fans.
