Podcasts about Man of Steel

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesFive Star Review from Parakleets: Love the show and longtime listener to the network! I'm a big fan of the MCU and very excited for Doomsday. I can't wait to see the teaser trailers, but can't figure out why y'all are so mad about it? Does podcasting make you guys more critical or cynical about the “biz”? As quite the opposite of being a filthy casual, I'll happily watch whatever trailers the MCU gives me and then judge the marketing promo after all the teasers are released.The Countdown BeginsThe hotly anticipated first teaser trailer for Marvel Studios' Avengers: Doomsday has officially arrived and with it some substantial reveals. The trailer originally debuted attached ahead of select screenings of Avatar: Fire & Ash last weekend, as expected, before being released online Tuesday morning. Prior to Tuesday morning's drop, reputable film industry trades like Variety already wasted no time running will spoiler-filled headlines addressing the spoilers and the week preceding the official release was plagued with leaked versions of varying quality sweeping the Internet; so, we've waiting long enough ourselves - spoilers inbound if you've somehow managed to avoid them. The trailer is here whether we like the release strategy or not; what do we think of our first official look at Doomsday?Brainiac On the DancefloorJames Gunn's quest to find the DCU's Brainiac has come to end, as Lars Eidenger's begins as he's been cast to play the classic villain in Superman sequel: Man of Tomorrow. The German actor, largely unfamiliar to American audiences but acclaimed for European work like Babylon Berlin, will face off against David Corenswet's Man of Steel and Nicholas Hoult's Lex Luthor in the sequel releasing July 9, 2027. Gunn has a penchant for taking gambles on relative unknowns and launching them to stardom, can he do it again for such an iconic and formidable foe?A Blue Christmas on Pandora?The aforementioned James Cameron's Avatar: Fire & Ash ignited the box office with a $345 million global opening weekend but opened roughly 22 percent below The Way of Water's $441 million debut. Early projections suggest Fire & Ash will finish around 1.7 to 1.8 billion worldwide rather than joining the elite $2 billion club like its predecessors, raising serious questions about whether Disney will greenlight Avatar 4 and Avatar 5. Has Cameron's box office dominance finally cooled off, or will the holiday legs carry Fire & Ash to the heights The All-Mother demands?Putting the Eye in IMAXChristopher Nolan's The Odyssey dropped its eagerly awaited first official trailer, showcasing Matt Damon in the title role battling to return home after the Trojan War in an epic shot entirely with new IMAX film camera technology. The highly anticipated adaptation features a stacked cast including Tom Holland as Odysseus' son Telemachus and Anne Hathaway as his wife Penelope, with the film already selling out 70MM Imax tickets at AMC and Regal ahead of its July 17, 2026 release. Can Nolan's ambitious vision of Homer's classic tale deliver another legend at the Box Office like Oppenheimer?

In this episode of Going Back to Smallville, This week on Going Back to Smallville, we're heading into Season 8 Episode 8, “Bloodline” — the one where a “simple” package yeets Clark and Lois into the Phantom Zone and suddenly their almost-roommate situation turns into a full-on survival pact. We're talking about how this one trip to the Zone quietly locks in why they work so well together long before either of them is ready to admit it. From Kara's big return and sacrifice, to Faora wearing Lois' face, we dig into how “Bloodline” supercharges the Season 8 big-bad storyline while still feeling like a Clois adventure movie.

There's arguably no superhero in existence that has been reimagined, redefined, or reinterpreted more than Batman.  No matter how many times he's been rebooted, audiences are always willing to come back to Gotham City's greatest defender.  With so much Bat content out there, there's plenty to dissect, analyze, and of course, rank!  This podcast is dedicated to a surgical evaluation of Batman's history, with a focus on ranking several topics in the world of Batman, among other classic Bat themes and characters.Join hosts Daniel Cohen, Pop Break's former Film Editor, and Kris Ingersoll, co-host of the Media/Lit podcast, as they bring on several guests every month to share their passion for the one and only Dark Knight.  From Adam West to Robert Pattinson, no bat stone will be left unturned.  Bottom-line: If you're a Batman fan, this is required listening.Well, we have come to the end of 2025, and what a year it was for DC, as we celebrated our theme of World's Finest with many episodes dedicated to the Man of Steel.As big as 2025 was though, 2026 for DC is shaping up to be massive!  We couldn't think of a better way to close out 2025 than by looking ahead to 2026.  It's just Daniel and Kris in the Batcave today, as they break down many exciting projects for DC in 2026, as well as 2027.  You know we had to close it out with some of the Matt Reeves The Batman: Part II news.Aside from Batman, the bat crew break down what to expect with Supergirl, Lanterns, Clayface, and what's next for Superman in the 2027 announced sequel, Man of Tomorrow!Oh.  They also open the show giving their thoughts on that whole WB-Netflix news, as well as some of the Paramount developments in conjunction with this.  It does involve DC, after all.  We got to talk about it!Also, please keep in mind, this was recorded before the Supergirl and Lanterns trailers were dropped.And…at the end of the show, the duo TEASE next year's Batman by the Numbers theme!  You don't want to miss it!

On this episode of Word Balloon, host John Siuntres continues his in-depth conversation with acclaimed artist Bryan Hitch in Part Two, focusing squarely on Superman, Lex Luthor, and the larger DC Universe. Bryan breaks down his visual approach to the Man of Steel, how he balances power with humanity, and why framing Superman correctly on the page is one of the hardest challenges in comics. The discussion also digs into Lex Luthor as a character — how Hitch visually communicates intellect, menace, and ego — and how those elements shape DC's larger narrative world. Bryan shares behind-the-scenes insights into collaboration, continuity, and the realities of working at the center of DC's flagship titles. It's a creator-level look at superheroes, villains, and the visual language that defines the DCU — thoughtful, candid, and packed with craft talk.

2025 has been the Year of Superman, and Missing Frames has been celebrating James Gunn's new film by sitting down with some of the writers, artists, and actors who help make the Man of Steel so special. Past conversations have included comic legends Dan Jurgens, Mark Waid, Tom King, and Phillip Kennedy Johnson, reflections on Richard Donner's iconic film with Lauren Shuler Donner, and even a chat with Ma Kent herself, Neva Howell.Today's guest is another incredible talent: Jonah Lees, who appears in Superman as Dean Farr, one of Lex Luthor's LuthorCorp cronies, alongside his real-life twin brother, Christian. But Jonah's career extends far beyond Metropolis. A highlight of the conversation is his work with Richard Linklater and Ethan Hawke on Blue Moon, as well as his recent portrayal of John Lennon in the Brian Epstein biopic Midas Man. An actor, songwriter, musician, and director, Jonah is a multifaceted creative whose range is as impressive as it is exciting. What begins as a Superman celebration quickly becomes a love letter to many shared passions: Superman, Richard Linklater, and The Beatles.

In this episode of Going Back to Smallville, we're talking Smallville Season 8 Episode 7 “Identity,” where Jimmy snaps a “miracle rescue” photo of Clark saving Lois, only to catch a red-and-blue streak that Tess is dying to splash across the Daily Planet's front page.Along the way we're talking Red-Blue Blur mythology, Lois and Clark's growing chemistry at the Planet, and how season 8's whole “double identity” theme hits differently now that we live in a world packed with superhero shows and multiverses. Is Chloe justified in crossing that line for Clark? Was Jimmy owed the truth? We're unpacking it all in this Smallville 8x7 “Identity” recap and discussion.

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 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.

In this 2013 Word Balloon conversation, artist Rags Morales discusses his pivotal work on Action Comics during DC Comics' New 52 relaunch. Morales reflects on collaborating with writer Grant Morrison to redefine Superman for a new generation—depicting a younger, more grounded Man of Steel in his early years as a social crusader. The discussion explores the creative process behind redesigning the character's look, the artistic challenges of working on such an iconic title, and how Action Comics helped set the tone for the New 52 era across the DC Universe.
