Men Of Steel

Before he was Squirrel Girl’s physics professor, Ben Tippett hypothesized an explanation for Superman’s powers and Case and Jmike want to to talk about it with him! Ben Tippett is on to talk about his paper and he has past guest and host of the “Science… Sort of… podcast”, Ryan Haupt, with him to translate!

Who is the ancient champion who wields the Power of Shazam? Case and Jmike are joined by Hans Martin Jr. and Steven Angulo to discuss the history of Black Adam. Check out next week’s episode of The Real Movie Critic Vs. The CineGuy, where Case and Jmike join Hans and Steven to review the new film, Black Adam.

No conversation about All Star Superman would be complete without the two guests who are tied for most number of appearances on this show! So, to round out the 100th episode spectacular, Case and Jmike are joined by Duke and JD Martin to talk about The Animated Adaptation of All Star Superman!

It’s the 100th episode, baby! So we’re covering All Star Superman, widely considered one of the best Superman stories of all time.

It's hard to believe that the podcast has been going for four years and we're only now getting to All Star Superman, widely considered one of the best Superman stories of all time. Well, we want to do it right, so for the first part we're joined by June Munford and Alan Kistler for an in depth look at the first six issues.

We’re joined by Ryan Luis Rodriguez to talk about DC’s first attempt at adapting the Death of Superman into an animated feature, Superman: Doomsday.

Superman has been a cultural icon for almost as long as recorded music has been a thing, so it makes sense that lots of songs have been inspired by the Man of Steel! Matt Storm joins us again to talk about music inspired by Superman!

The “Friend of All Pods”, Dan Purcell, and Matt Storm aka Stormageddon are here to talk about the musical themes of Superman. Check out the discussion!

To talk about J. Michael Straczynski’s take on a realistic Superman origin… the optimistic one that is… Case and Jmike are joined by Keith and Josue from “We Have Issues”!

If there’s one thing that the “Big 2” have in common, it’s that they both believe that one popular event deserves another! Mitch is back to talk with us about the second round of Amalgam Comics! Do these surpass their predecessors or was the well running dry already? Tune in to find out!

Mitch Punpayuk is back to look at the 90s DC vs. Marvel (or is it Marvel vs. DC?) crossover and the ensuing Amalgam event where all of the characters of the big two were merged together!

Before we look to more modern incarnations of the Man of Tomorrow, let’s stop and look at the story that started it all: Action Comics #1. For this chat, we’re joined by Adam from “Talking Superman”!

We continue our brush with the formative years of super hero fiction, this time looking on the deconstructionist retrospective work from James Robinson and Paul Smith! Zach Herring joins Case and Jmike to look back at The Golden Age!

From the “Science… Sort Of” and “iFanboy” podcasts, Ryan Haupt joins Case and Jmike for a discussion about the novel that asks “What was Superman up to prior to Action Comics #1?” From dust bowl Kansas to Tinsel Town’s Golden Age and beyond, the three tackle what shapes a boy into a super man!

We’re back with more of the radio show, but this time we’re joined by Adam Lance Garcia and Steele Filipek, creators of the Green Lama audio drama! This time we’re looking at the second team up of Superman and Batman EVER (and the first is lost to time)!

Stupid Sexy Superman! Case, Jmike, and special guest J.D. Martin breeze through Grant Morrison's fairwell to DC, Superman and the Authority, like it's nothing at all! Nothing At All! NOTHING AT ALL!

When this show was still figuring out a format, Case just assumed we’d be getting to John Byrne’s era. Well, now, 4 years in, that’s finally true! Join Case, Jmike, and special guest Frank Hernandez for a talk about the definitive Superman origin, until it wasn’t.

As part of the #DarkKnightFortnight we’re talking about “the one where Superman’s Batman”, you know the one! Yeah! That one! Speeding Bullets, by J. M. DeMatteis and Eduardo Barreto. To have that conversation, we’re joined by Zack Magee from the S.H.U. Podcast.

Take a look back at the formative years of the Man of Tomorrow, as JD and Angela join Case and Jmike for a chat about Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale's landmark series, Superman For All Seasons!

Eternals is finally streaming and Case and Jmike's opinions aren't of a uni-mind, so to arbitrate this discussion we have CeeJay on from Below Freezing!
