Host Anthony Desiato begins an epic 8-part deep dive into the period of Superman history from 1986 to 1993, aka the post-CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS relaunch through the Death and Return of Superman! In Part I, Anthony and guest Dan Greenfield (13thDimension.com) dig into writer/artist John Byrne's run on the SUPERMAN title, which spanned issues #1-22 and pitted the Man of Steel against Metallo, the billionaire industrialist iteration of Lex Luthor, and a trio of pocket-universe Kryptonian villains (with fateful results). "Crisis 'Til Death" runs WEEKLY, so come back in 1 week for Part II!

Tread Perilously rounds out SuperJune with a look at Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman and its third season episode, "When Irish Eyes Are Killing." After Clark decides he loves Lois too much to date her, their sniping is overheard by Lois's old flame, Patrick Sullivan. As it happens, he's come to Metropolis to deal with some old family business. Meanwhile, a string of antique robberies and ritual killings might be related. But do their Irish connections have anything to do with Sullivan, who is also looking to rekindle his affair with Lois? Also, will Clark realize he's being stupid? Erik and Justin immediately launch into Geography Corner. They also rate the Superman actors of television. Dean Cain gets raked over the coals for his acting and his acting only. The sniping between Lois and Clark proves grating. The "will they/won't they" aspect of the show gets examined, as does the Ron Silver quality of this week's villain. The "Oirish" accent gets a workout. The pair get lost talking what sort of sub-compact Clark Kent would've drove in the 1990s, the Post-Crisis Superman, and Superman III's "Bad Superman." Also, Justin rallies against the notion of ritual killing in a Superman show.

We're back with another Character Corner episode. This time we're diving into the first part of a two part series on the man himself, Superman. Created in 1938 by Joe Shuster and Jerry Siegel, Superman is the first superhero and is the birth of the Golden Age. The first part of this series is going to focus more on the overall history and context of Superman and not really digging into the stories too much. Mainly because there’s so much. This is once again a Golden Age character and perhaps the most important character in comic book history. There have been some changes here and there but Superman has largely remained the same compared to other characters (go dive into the histories of Wonder Woman or Hawkman). Superman also had the benefit of radio serials (Over 2000 episodes) that were aimed at kids that really helped the character take root. From 1941 - 1970, under editor Mort Weisinger, Superman stories spend nearly 3 decades finding their footing. While there are definitely stories here that resonate, this time period is really about setting up the overall characterization of who Superman really is. And it's a good foundation that anyone looking to make a live action Superman should look at (Looking at you Zack Snyder). In this episode we explore the 'who is he?' of Superman leading up to Crisis and then jump into John Byrne's Man of Steel which sets the stage of who Post-Crisis Superman is and is the Superman that is the model for all those that come after. We then end with the Death of Superman (Superman #75) which Dpalm makes a solid argument for the beginning of the death of comics. Before we jump into that though, Kriss and Dpalm take some time to talk about the passing of Chadwick Boseman. Boseman's death hits so hard because he was becoming a legend not just because of the characters he played on screen but because of who he was off of it.  Issues: Key Issues Action Comics #1 - First appearance of Superman/Clark Kent and Lois Lane Superman #1 - First appearance Jonathan and Martha Kent  Action Comics #23 - First appearance of The Daily Star/Daily Planet   Superman #7  - First appearance of Perry White  Action Comics #6 (unnamed cameo), Radio serial (April 15 1940), Superman #13  - First appearance of Jimmy Olsen Superman #76 - First official meeting of Batman and Superman Key Villain Appearances Action Comics #23 - First appearance of Lex Luther Action Comics #242 - First appearance of Brainiac   Superboy #68  - First appearance of Bizarro Adventure comics #283 - First appearance General Zod  Superman's Pal Jimmy Olsen #134 - First appearance of Darkseid Powers Flight - Comes in the second episode of the radio serial Action Comics #11 - X-Ray vision & super hearinng Action Comics #20 - Super human breath Superman #129 - Freeze breath Superman #146 - All of his powers except strength come from the Earth's sun Action Comics #300 - All of his powers (even strength) come from the Earth's sun and are taken away by red sunlight Superman #61 - Kryptonite first appears in the comics (mentioned on radio 6 years before) Crisis on Infinite Earths DC's Legends 1 - 6 - John Ostrander John Byrne's Man of Steel 1 - 6 - retells the story origin of Superman Post Crisis Superman The Man of Steel (These volumes collect Superman, Action Comics and Adventures of Superman) Volume 2 Volume 3 Volume 4 Volume 5 Volume 6 Volume 7 Volume 8 Volume 9 The Death of Superman Superman The Man of Steel #18 Justice League of America #69 Superman #74 Adventures of Superman #497 Action Comics #684 Superman The Man of Steel #19 Superman #75 Like what you hear?

In this week's ball-stalking episode, Magnus is rejoined by Jon M. Wilson to begin winding up the comic book-oriented portion of the ultra super mega epic 13-part Batman v. Superman megaseries epic of ultra superness! This megaseries is all about saluting Batman comics, Superman comics and Batman & Superman comics! Oh yeah, and there will also be a lengthy Man of Steel retrospective as well as an initial reaction episode for Batman v Superman! In terms of comics, this megaseries is all about the old, the new and a tasteful selection of stuff in between! In this week's adventure, Magnus and Wilson imperiously turn their collective attention to a crucial turning point in Superman's publishing history. Yes indeed, the guys talk about Superman #1 cover dated January 1987. And because they both suffer from the devil's own case of ADD, they spend over two and a half hours working their way through it. No kidding! 2 hours, 42 minutes, 51 seconds of Superman #1 discussion. But that's not all that happens in these issues! Nope! An important character from the Silver Age gets an extensive makeover, forever altering his destiny in the Superman mythos! For those determined to ruin the Internet for everyone else by perpetuating click-bait on Facebook, "Magnus melts Wilson's brain with a Post-Crisis Superman conspiracy theory!" Due to the avalanche of rugged awesomeness in this week's show, unfortunately there was just no time for listener feedback this week. A plan has been formed to be deal with the backlog of feedback but it's far too early to go into details beyond that. Even so, fear not, loyal subjects! Your leader will reveal all in due course. In the meantime, don't let the lack of feedback this time get you down! You can still offer your feeble effort at tribute! You humble serfs are always welcome to kiss your benevolent leader's ring. Corrupt DiManzocorp interns are ready, willing, able and eager to accept your bribe to present your meager missives to your wise emperor. The email address to use is trentusmagnus@gmail.com as the other seems to be having technical problems. In an another sublime act of truly unprecedented charity, the leader permits you lowly rabble to suggest topics for a future episode. Thus, petitions may be sent to trentusmagnus@gmail.com for DiManzocorp interns to review, whereupon your leader might consider thinking about the possibility of potentially discussing whatever you have in mind some day. And that's a promise!
