Men Of Steel

If there’s one thing that the “Big 2” have in common, it’s that they both believe that one popular event deserves another! Mitch is back to talk with us about the second round of Amalgam Comics! Do these surpass their predecessors or was the well running dry already? Tune in to find out!

Mitch Punpayuk is back to look at the 90s DC vs. Marvel (or is it Marvel vs. DC?) crossover and the ensuing Amalgam event where all of the characters of the big two were merged together!

Before we look to more modern incarnations of the Man of Tomorrow, let’s stop and look at the story that started it all: Action Comics #1. For this chat, we’re joined by Adam from “Talking Superman”!

We continue our brush with the formative years of super hero fiction, this time looking on the deconstructionist retrospective work from James Robinson and Paul Smith! Zach Herring joins Case and Jmike to look back at The Golden Age!

From the “Science… Sort Of” and “iFanboy” podcasts, Ryan Haupt joins Case and Jmike for a discussion about the novel that asks “What was Superman up to prior to Action Comics #1?” From dust bowl Kansas to Tinsel Town’s Golden Age and beyond, the three tackle what shapes a boy into a super man!

We’re back with more of the radio show, but this time we’re joined by Adam Lance Garcia and Steele Filipek, creators of the Green Lama audio drama! This time we’re looking at the second team up of Superman and Batman EVER (and the first is lost to time)!

Stupid Sexy Superman! Case, Jmike, and special guest J.D. Martin breeze through Grant Morrison's fairwell to DC, Superman and the Authority, like it's nothing at all! Nothing At All! NOTHING AT ALL!

When this show was still figuring out a format, Case just assumed we’d be getting to John Byrne’s era. Well, now, 4 years in, that’s finally true! Join Case, Jmike, and special guest Frank Hernandez for a talk about the definitive Superman origin, until it wasn’t.

As part of the #DarkKnightFortnight we’re talking about “the one where Superman’s Batman”, you know the one! Yeah! That one! Speeding Bullets, by J. M. DeMatteis and Eduardo Barreto. To have that conversation, we’re joined by Zack Magee from the S.H.U. Podcast.

Take a look back at the formative years of the Man of Tomorrow, as JD and Angela join Case and Jmike for a chat about Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale's landmark series, Superman For All Seasons!

Eternals is finally streaming and Case and Jmike's opinions aren't of a uni-mind, so to arbitrate this discussion we have CeeJay on from Below Freezing!

Many have asked "Must there be a Superman?", but Alan Davis explored what the DC Universe would be like if the Man of Steel never showed up! Case and Jmike are joined by Jonah Gregory from the Inks and Issues podcast for a chat about this classic Elseworlds!

We are joined by Neil Gaiman experts, J.D. Martin and Angela "Bones" Bullock, from the "Fables & Reflections" podcast to talk about the unfinished arc of Miracleman by the bard of comics himself.

Dream of Flying with Alex, Jmike, and Case! They’re taking a look at the incredibly influential early 80’s story, whether they call it Marvelman or Miracleman! So whisper “Kimota” and join the Red Kings in Olympus!

Before their redefining run on Guardians of the Galaxy, Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning envisioned a future that was both optimistic and desperate in Legion Lost. To discuss this shot in the arm to counter the late 90s ennui that had beset The Legion Of Superheroes, Case and Jmike are joined by former Legion artist, Chris Batista. Come. Gush. Unlax. Because… Grife… this nass is sprocking dope!

Time keeps on slippin’ slippin’ into the future, but DC comics in the 80s wouldn’t have that! So in the wake of Crisis on Infinite Earths, it was decided to sequester the Legion of Superheroes from their history with a Superboy who no longer existed. Alan Kistler joins Case and Jmike to look at John Byrne and Paul Levitz’s attempt to reconcile a convoluted reboot… with more convolution! Did they succeed? No, but it’s still worth checking out!

Their cry may be "Long Live The Legion!", but can even The Legion of Superheroes survive The Great Darkness Saga? Duke joins Jmike and Case to dig into this classic story!

We are joined by prolific voice actor, Yuri Lowenthal, to talk voicing the Man of Steel and other iconic roles!

It’s time to talk about the animated adaptation of the Young Superman’s futuristic formative friends! Case and Jmike are joined by Devin Carr for a look back at the early aughts series!

Let's talk about The Legion of Super Heroes!
