Legends of the Batman

Welcome to episode six of 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 of Batman, be it comic books, television, movies, whatever, starting with his first appearance in 1939.

The head-butting is at a minimum this episode, as Michael Bradley is swayed towards the Dark Side and begins sharing Michael Kaiser’s opinion of “The Batman vs the Vampire” two-parter, which features Batman taking on the nefarious villain known as The Monk in the pages of DETECTIVE COMICS #32.

The Thrilling Adventures of Superman

Welcome to episode 17 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.

The death of a close friend is the instigator for Superman’s adventure as Michael looks at ACTION COMICS #12. Superman does a whole lot of smashin’, crashin’, mashin’ and trashin’ (and has an unsettling amount of fun doing it) — all in the name of making the roads safer you and I. Will Superman succeed in his campaign? Or will he just endanger more lives than he saves? And what’s this rumor about Superman creeping about under a strange man’s bed?! Only one way to find out!

QUOTABLE:
This is one task I’ll particularly enjoy!
Superman

Action Comics #12

Good as ne-- D'OH!

Superman cares not for your masonry.
