DOWNLOAD/ RSS / ITUNES / STITCHER RADIO

This is it!!!. You voted, I listened, and now we have a full episode devoted to YOUR Metropolis Idol- Dean Cain.

Before we jump into any of that, though- We have a new General Zod, and I have some thoughts on him. Also, what is Henry Cavill doing to prepare for donning the blue tights, and what does he think of the script, and Amy Adams?

Zack Snyder talks about working with Christopher Nolan.

What does the son of Lex Luthor want with the Man of Steel? Who is the new female character that will have his attention? Find out when we talk about Superman: Requiem.

Then, it’s time. We talk about Dean Cain. From the heartbreak of a premature end to his sports career, to donning the cape.

We look back at Lois and Clark: The New Adventures of Superman, and where Dean went after that.

Also, a look back at a classic episode of Lois and Clark- “Seasons Greedings” written by Dean Cain.

Then we wrap the week up by talking about Michael Shannon, and I give my thoughts on him, and the casting choice.

Remember to come back Thursday when we review the Superman books on shelves for May, 2007.

Superman Forever Radio 20- April 2007

DOWNLOAD/ RSS / ITUNES / STITCHER RADIO

Welcome to the new format. This week, we look back to the Superman comics on shelves for April of 2007… both of them. Thanks to DC’s erratic (Late) publishing schedule, we have a lighter episode than normal.

We roll out the new comic book rating system, and look deeper into the New Earth era.

In Superman #661, The Man of Steel teams with Wonder Woman to take on a life-force draining villainess, and Lois shows Diana a cyber-Cafe.

We look at Wonder Woman’s history, and her relationship with Kal-El before moving on to our second book of the week.

In Superman Conidential #4, Superman receives a beat down, courtesy of Lex Luthor and Kryptonite, before Jimmy comes to his rescue, and delivers him to Clark Kent?!?!?

And we wrap up with e-mails- Is Pa Kent actually a liar?? Has Michael Bailey found the secret that could have fixed the entire New Earth era??? Listen and find out.

Superman Forever Radio 19- Kryptonite Central

DOWNLOAD/ RSS / ITUNES / STITCHER RADIO

This week begins the new twice weekly format.

We talk extensively about Kryptonite– it’s origins, the many varieties, and a scientific explanation of why it effects the Man of Steel. Did you know that Jerry Siegel originally wanted Kryptonite to appear years earlier? You can read much of that original story at k-metal.nu.

Also, Amy Adams as Lois Lane; why she makes an excellent choice and what former Lois Lanes have spoken their approval. A Justice League movie for 2013? And an update on the other Superman movieSuperman Requiem.

Then, the Kryptonite theme continues as the animated Superman first encounters his weakness in the fifth episode of Superman:The Animated Series. See the Man of Steel battle a giant T-rex, and pollute the harbor with aircraft and lead poisoning. Also- why you don’t want to be in the Metropolis Treasury building when a fire breaks out.

All of this- and the final round of Metropolis idol. Have you voted in the final showdown between George Reeves and Dean Cain? Choose your Superman.
