Superman Forever Radio 25- Whatever Happened to the man Who Has Everything

DOWNLOAD/ RSS / ITUNES / STITCHER RADIO

This week, the Superman tales written by British comic book legend Alan Moore.

From the cracked mirror look at the politics of Krypton in “For the Man Who Has Everything” to the tear-jerking epic finale of “Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow” Alan Moore brings a pathos to the Man of Steel.

Also, news from the SFR Daily Planet- Tom Welling on Jimmy Kimmel, Bryan Singer on why Superman Returns failed, Bizarro to the rescue, and more.

Then, we return to the animated universe of the Man of Steel, as he takes on the menace of Metallo in “The Way of All Flesh” before wrapping it up with a production note.

Remember to come back Thursday when we review the Superman comics cover dated July of 2007, including Action Comics #850.

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.

This week, we look into Superman‘s origin much deeper- by looking at his creators, Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster in part one of a three part series on the creation of Superman.

In the midst of the Great Depression, two outcast teenagers would meet and form a bond that would last a lifetime- and create the world’s first Super-hero.

I count down the top 5 Superman books that mean the most to me, and answer a quick e-mail.

We also look at the Superman books for June 2006- Superman #651, Action Comics #838, and Superman/Batman #26 (It’s a tear-jerker).

Plus- Metropolis Idol results for Round 1 Week 1, and announce the combatants for Round 1 Week 2
