The Thrilling Adventures of SupermanWelcome to episode 79 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.

This episode, Michael is joined by Jeffrey Taylor for a look at SUPERMAN #7, featuring four brand new Superman stories.

And the hosts themselves cover a wide berth of Superman-related discussions in the process with talk ranging from comics to radio to television, film and beyond!

The Thrilling Adventures of SupermanWelcome to episode 62 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.

Finally! It’s back to the Sunday newspaper strip as Michael looks at the fourth storyline. Unfortunately, it’s a sub-par story overall. But, the good news is, there’s plenty of the action, intrigue and insanity we’ve come to love in Superman’s Golden Age adventures, as Clark Kent and Lois Lane (and Superman!) set out to aid a relief fund for a war-stricken foreign nation.

QUOTABLE:
See? I crush the wood to sawdust! — Tell me who your leader is, or I’ll see what I can do with your necks!
