Podcasts about Man of Steel

For this landmark 3000th episode, we're opening the vault for a special two-part conversation from 2015 with the late Martin Pasko — writer, editor, historian, and one of the sharpest, funniest minds ever to shape modern comics and genre television. In Part 1, Marty walks us through the foundations of his career, beginning with his time writing Superman in the Bronze Age. We get into the pressures and freedoms of handling the Man of Steel at a moment when DC was redefining itself, and Marty doesn't shy away from talking about the artists, editors, and behind-the-scenes personalities who shaped that era.From there, we explore his work on Batman: The Animated Series, where he discusses the creative culture that produced one of the greatest superhero shows ever made — and why it demanded a different kind of storytelling discipline than comics. Along the way, Marty opens up about:His favorite artists and editors he collaborated withHis takes on the Superman films and their legacyWhat Tim Burton got right — and wrong — with Batman (1989)His lifelong fandom for Star Trek and classic Old Time RadioHis contributions to the 1980s Twilight Zone revival and the challenges of writing smart, eerie anthology televisionThis is Marty at his best: candid, witty, encyclopedic, and completely unfiltered. A perfect way to celebrate 3000 episodes of Word Balloon — with a creator who helped define so much of what we love.

This week on Men of Steel, Case and Jmike are joined by Kris Ingersoll (Media/Lit, Batman By The Numbers) to talk about the 1990 World's Finest miniseries! We dig into how this story redefined the dynamic between Superman and Batman, the tone of early '90s DC, and why this team-up still holds up decades later. #MenOfSteelPod #WorldsFinest #Superman #Batman #DCComics #ComicsPodcast #KrisIngersoll Support us on Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/CertainPOVMedia Men of Steel Full Episode Originally aired: December 5, 2025 Edited by Sophia Ricciardi Scored by Geoff Moonen Certain Point Of View is a podcast network brining you all sorts of nerdy goodness!

Topic: The 1990 DC Comics miniseries World's Finest by Dave Gibbons and Steve Rood. Contextual Background of the 1990 World's Finest (02:51 - 05:34) The miniseries releases shortly after Crisis on Infinite Earths and John Byrne's Man of Steel reboot (1986). Post-Dark Knight Returns, Batman and Superman's relationship had changed, characterized by distance rather than camaraderie. ️ Plot Overview (05:34 - 08:14) Lex Luthor and Joker team up to take over Gotham and Metropolis with intertwined but largely separate schemes. Batman and Superman investigate, culminating in events involving an orphanage, a nuclear reactor, and city-wide explosions. Decompression and Story Structure Critique (08:14 - 11:34) Discussion of story pacing issues: The narrative is elongated with side elements (e.g., orphan kids) that do not cohesively tie in. Emphasis on character moments over tight plotting. Initial Impressions and Artistic Elements (11:34 - 17:59) Chris praises the visual storytelling and art, referencing the use of parallel imagery and distinctive flashback watercolor style. Noted the deliberate design choices to echo Silver Age and Max Fleischer era Superman and early Batman. ‍️ Characterization of Villains and Supporting Cast (17:59 - 30:39) Joker portrayed in a "zany," less menacing mode, more a prankster than murderously malicious. Lex Luthor features a robotic hand and operates like a mob boss, balancing businessman and villain traits. Character Dynamics and Relationships (30:39 - 40:21) Lois Lane and Bruce Wayne's interactions highlight mutual suspicion and gradual respect. Batman and Superman's knowledge of each other's secret identities is subtle initially, revealed more overtly in third issue. ️ Themes and Continuity Notes (40:21 - 50:27) Orphanage is a thematic midpoint between Gotham and Metropolis, symbolizing shared orphan backgrounds of Batman, Superman, and villain. The book emphasizes orphans and legacy but does not fully develop these thematic elements. Technical and Artistic Praise (50:27 - 52:58) Art and character design praised for classic yet fresh look; great use of tableau pages showing Gotham and Metropolis. Noted the Batmobile's stylish design and Batman's athletic, sleek physique. Character in Action: Batman and Superman (52:58 - 59:55) Batman characterized as efficient, brutal, and action-focused. His use of Batarangs and disguises recognized as authentic. Superman rendered as powerful but more grounded Burn era 'cop,' balancing investigative journalism and heroic strength. Artistic and Thematic Highlights (59:55 - 01:09:46) Memorable moments include Superman carrying a nuclear reactor into space to save Metropolis. Subtle details such as Clark Kent's mannerisms and investigative approach noted. Overall Assessment and Legacy (01:09:46 - 01:14:36) The miniseries serves as a valuable snapshot of Batman and Superman dynamics post-Crisis and pre-mid-90s crossovers. While the narrative is considered "vibes-over-story," the series offers essential character moments, iconic imagery, and era-specific continuity. Conclusion and Promotions (01:14:36 - 01:19:44) Guests share social media handles and podcast info. Hosts plug "Trade School" podcast and Certain POV Discord for further comic discussions.

In this episode, Mike Norton returns to dig into three big projects at very different stages of his creative journey.

He breaks down the tone, the look, and the storytelling approach he and Ryan are bringing to Superman's best four-legged friend, plus a few hints at the series' emotional core.We wrap with a look back at Superman Unchained, his collaboration with Dan Slott. Mike shares production memories, creative challenges, and why this take on the Man of Steel still holds a special place for him.

In this week's episode of Going Back to Smallville, we dive into one of the creepiest turns the series has ever taken — and it's all centered around Davis Bloome. From Chloe's counseling circle to shadowy alley attacks and bloody wake-ups with no memory, this episode had major horror energy. We break down Clark's trust issues, Chloe's growing bond with Davis, and that one scene that had us shouting at the screen. Is Davis the monster… or just the beginning of something even darker?GET YOUR 30 DAY FREE TRIAL OF AMAZON PRIME HERE

James Gavsie rolls in with the ever-lovin' blue-eyed brawler—Ben Grimm, The Thing. A street-smart Brooklyn bruiser wrapped in skyscraper-grade rock. He's wrestled gods, arm-wrestled Hulk, tanked cosmic blasts, and still finds time to crack a joke between punches. When Ben says “It's clobberin' time,” that's not a catchphrase—it's a weather alert.Eric Holmes fires back with Superman's broken mirror—Bizarro, the backwards titan of chaos. A twisted echo of the Man of Steel with frost-breath colder than the grave, heat-vision that burns wrong but burns hard, and strength that casually shatters continents—mostly by accident. He means well. He just destroys things while meaning well.The arena detonates: Cosmic brick versus corrupted Kryptonian. Grimm's battle-born discipline against Bizarro's unpredictable, planet-crushing wildness. Can Ben's never-say-die grit out-slug a backwards god, or will Bizarro prove that even the strongest rock in the Marvel Universe cracks under opposite-day Superman?Listen now to find out....Who.

This week, we continue our series of creators we are thankful for as Zach and Mike dive into the Absolute Batman Annual #1, featuring a powerful new story written and illustrated by Daniel Warren Johnson (Do a Powerbomb, Wonder Woman: Dead Earth). Zach breaks down why Johnson's gritty, kinetic art and storytelling make this one of the most striking Batman tales in years. A raw, violent, and deeply human look at what justice means in a broken world. Along the way, the guys talk about Batman as a man of the people, how DWJ balances chaos with compassion, and why his work always manages to punch you in the heart. Then, they revisit one of Johnson's earlier works. The Superman: Red & Blue short story that proves even the Man of Steel's greatest power might be love, empathy, and a good Kansas dad. Things get personal as Zach and Mike reflect on fatherhood, legacy, and the messages that shape who we become. It's an episode that mixes laughs, deep comic talk, and genuine emotion. Everything that makes Bros, Foes, and Heroes what it is.

Welcome to From Crisis to Crisis Classic! Because of the original feed getting lost due to financial considerations I (Michael) decided to start representing them on this feed to give them a new home since people still seem to be finding them.  Note before listening...check out the original release date below if you hear something that sounds kind of off or doesn't align with the social norms of today. Or if the audio quality isn't up to snuff of what you'd hear from this show today. These epsiodes are represented as they were first released. No editing. No George Lucas style revamps. I'm doing this mainly because I want to retain the original feel of the episodes and also because...well, I'm lazy. Episode 3 - January 1987 Original Release Date - May 26, 2009 Original Show Notes This week your hosts, Michael Bailey and Jeffrey Taylor, examine the books that came out with the cover date of January 1987, the first month of regular Superman comics after Man of Steel.  In Superman #1 a certain criminal with a heart of Kryptonite makes his initial Post Crisis appearance while over in Adventures of Superman #424 we get our first look at a certain gossip columnist that has eyes for a mild mannered reporter.  Finally there's Action Comics #584, which features Superman running amok in Metropolis with only the Teen Titans to try and stop him.

Look up in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's James Gunn's Superman, here to launch the writer-director-studio-head's brand new (?) DC Universe. It moves faster than a speeding bullet despite having more plot than the last five Marvel movies put together–and some of those plot points hold up better to the green-K gaze of our hosts than others. Paul, Arlo, and Eric break down everything about this new big screen Man of Steel, including a perfect cast, major deviations from Superman's origin, Gunn's unabashedly political script, fuckboi Jimmy Olsen, and so much more. Maybe the film doesn't leap tall expectations in a single bound, but a movie like this has much more up (up and away) its Super-sleeve than any billionaire skinhead would expect. Plus, the gang dives deep into the sewers for a read-through of IDW's Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles saga.   NEXT: it's time once again to enter the gates of VAL-halla, as the gang discusses two of Val Kilmer's most iconic performances, namely as Jim Morrison in Oliver Stone's 1991 psych-biopic The Doors and Doc Holliday in 1994's neo-Western Tombstone.

In this week's episode of Going Back to Smallville, we dive into one of Oliver Queen's most intense storylines yet — a poisoned billionaire, a fever dream island flashback, and the wild origin of his connection with Tess Mercer. We're breaking down the emotional weight, the character reveals, and that brutal final twist. Plus, we talk Chloe's growing powers, Lois and Clark's complicated almost-something, and whether this was the moment Oliver truly became the Green Arrow we know and love.

Episode 1 - Man of Steel issues one and two Original Release Date - May 12, 2009 This is the one that launched the whole thing. Fun fact, Jeff and I had never actually spoken until we recorded this episode. I was only two years into my podcasting career, so I was still finding my voice and Jeff hadn't quite figured out his audio, which is why he sounds like he does. As you read above, this issue covers the first two issues of Man of Steel, the series that started the entire Post Crisis era! After a little bit of background info on the creation of the series Jeff and I get into the nitty gritty and explore the first two issues of the series.  Experience or re-experience the final days of the Post Crisis Krypton, how the Kents found the baby Clark Kent, Clark beginning to discover his origins, Superman's first appearance, the first meeting with Lois Lane, Superman's first days in Metropolis and how Clark got the job at the Daily Planet.

Send us a textA Superman movie where the dog makes more choices than the Man of Steel? We dove into James Gunn's take and found a shiny spectacle that keeps dodging the heart of the character. From a midstream opening to a city-leviathan set piece shot through a fish-eye lens, the film races past the moments that would make us care, then tries to land on a heartfelt message about humanity it doesn't quite earn.We dig into why the quiet scenes sing—the Pa Kent farm talk and the final reflection—and how they whisper the contours of a better film: one where Superman wrestles with power, responsibility, and the courage to inspire rather than overpower. We also spotlight the true scene-stealer: Mr. Terrific. His competence, dry humor, and clear methods hint at the grounded, team-driven storytelling this world could support. Meanwhile, the Daily Planet ensemble, public-opinion whiplash, and a pocket-universe prison full of glass boxes illustrate how setup after setup goes un-paid-off, sapping stakes and coherence.This episode unpacks the plot mechanics, the character arcs that aren't, and the choice architecture that should define Superman but rarely shows up here. We question the Justice team's late pivot, the citywide consequences that never land, and the way recurring gags step on tension. And yes, we talk Crypto: when a superdog becomes the clutch play, the movie's center has drifted. If you love Superman's ethos—hope, restraint, and moral clarity under pressure—this breakdown will give you language to explain what's missing and how it could be fixed.Enjoy the breakdown?
