Superman Fan Podcast, episode 284
Billy Hogan once again turns his attention to Jerry Siegel-written comics with episode 284 of the Superman Fan Podcast!
First up is SUPERMAN #155, where the Siegel-written “The Downfall of Superman!” earned the cover feature and a special guest appearance by a real-life celebrity. Years before he met Muhammad Ali in the boxing ring, Superman squared off against Antonino Rocca in the squared circle. Can Superman take the legendary wrestler down for the count? And what happens when a group of thugs plot to pin Rocca for good?!
Next is ACTION COMICS #291, where Supergirl stars in “The Bride of Mr. Mxyzptlk.” The 12-page story is Siegel’s final installment in his Supergirl run in ACTION COMICS. Siegel wrote one more Supergirl story after this, but not until 1965.

Superman Fan Podcast, episode 282
Time to play catch up on what’s been happening in the podcast world. A few weeks ago, Billy Hogan released episode 282 of the Superman Fan Podcast!
In the episode, Billy looks at SUPERMAN ANNUAL #5, reprinting “an all-star collection of stories featuring the Superman Family on Krypton!”
Unfortunately, as the annual came out less than a year after Jerry Siegel’s return to DC, only one Siegel-written story is included.
But, one always is better than none! Plus, it’s a story that has never been reprinted outside of the annual.
In the 8-page, George Papp-illustrated “The Invasion of Krypton!” Superboy learns that, as a baby on Krypton, he was given super-powers for a short time! I bet those sure will come in handy when the planet is invaded …
