Legends of the BatmanWelcome to episode 26 Legends of the Batman, the show covering everything Batman — from the beginning! The show’s premise is a simple one. Each episode, we cover a month (or so) of Batman, be it comic books, television, movies, whatever, starting with his first appearance in 1939.

The two Michaels move forward in their quest to cover all things Batman by taking a look at his adventures in November of 1940, which is back to one book, DETECTIVE COMICS #46, where Batman and Robin face the return of a thought-dead villain, Hugo Strange, who tries to infect their city with a deadly fear toxin in the case of “Professor Strange’s Fear Dust.”

The Thrilling Adventures of SupermanWelcome to episode 66 of The Thrilling Adventures of Superman. The show’s mission 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.

Michael is all by himself this time, but Superman’s thrilling adventures continue as Michael looks at episodes 58 through 63, the 11th storyline, of the Superman radio serial! Lois and Clark head out to report on a deadly explosion at the doll factory of Hans Holbein. But things turn dangerous when Lois is abducted and Superman finds something far more sinister behind the explosion!

QUOTABLE:
“You’ll be sorry you ever started with me. Because if there’s one man on earth I despise… that man is you!”
Superman

The Superman radio show, obviously, doesn’t allow for scans of images from the story. However, here is a look at a couple spot illustrations, that accompanied the text adaptation of the story in the July 1941 issues of Radio and Television Mirror, as well as a look at those issues’ covers. Art was likely done by members of the Shuster shop. Who penned the adaptations themselves, however, is not known.
