Superman in the Bronze Age Episode 22 -- Jimmy Olsen #133 and #134


Greetings and salutations gang! Today, I am proud to present Episode 22, part 1 in my review of "The Morgan Edge Story," or an excuse to go back and look at Jack Kirby's run on Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen. In this one episode, the Newsboy Legion returns with a +1, we meet the Outsiders (no, not Batman's friends), the Whiz Wagon, Morgan Edge, Inter-Gang, WGBS, the Mountain of Judgement, the Hairies, a subtle Beatles reference and the first appearance of a big baddie, and most of that is in just the first issue!

Thrilling Adventures of Superman -- Episode 25


After having him on episode 14 of my show, Michael Bradley of Thrilling Adventures of Superman was kind enough to invite me to record episode 25 of his show. I had a lot of fun talking about some of Superman's adventures in the Golden Age, I want to thank Michael for having me on his show and I look forward to recording with him again in the future. Things get kicked off with ACTION COMICS #16 where Superman smashes — literally! — a gambling racket. We then move on to the SUPERMAN #2, with the second Superman text story. And finally, we take a look at ACTION COMICS #17, where our hero takes on the challenge of rescuing a stranded steamer and is drawn into a larger plot formed by a very familiar foe!

The mission of the Thrilling Adventures of Superman is to explore the history and development of the Superman in his formative years by chronicling the Man of Steel’s Golden Age adventures in comics, radio and film.

Superman in the Bronze Age Episode 21 -- May 1972


I'm baaaaaack!  That's right folks, episode 21 has finally arrived.  This week, I catch up on some of the things that happened during the hiatus, Superman actually teams up with Batman in World's Finest, helps in the birth of...something in Superman and meets a man out of time in Action Comics.  Plus we see what else happened in the DC Multiverse and I announce my plans for the next few episodes.
