When I launched SUPERMAN & BATMAN earlier this year, the choice to cover random stories was a deliberate one. It was done not only to keep up my own interest in the project, but to cover a wider range of stories in hopes of giving a broader view of the World’s Finest team throughout its more than seven decades of existence.

However, I realize the “chronological index” format of podcast is a popular one (I’ve even done a few myself!) and that, once the show has built up a catalog of episodes, listeners new or old might wish to listen to the stories covered in the order of their original publication or release.

To that end, I’ve put together the Superman & Batman Chronology, which list all stories covered on the podcast. The list can be covered by original publication, episode release and even media!

So, whether you’re a new listener or you’ve been here since the beginning, check out the list, pick your preferred order, and get ready to experience the show — not to mention seven decades of the greatest superheroes — in a whole new way.
