King-Size Comics Giant-Size Fun

Welcome to the second episode of the Superman & Captain Marvel Power Hour Podcast, the podcast devoted to exploring the publishing history & adventures of both the Last Son of Krypton and the World's Mightiest Mortal. I am your host Kyle Benning, and thank you for joining me on this journey to explore the evolution of my 2 favorite DC Characters, Superman & Captain Marvel. This time out, I tackle the Golden Age origin stories of both characters, taking a look at Superman's enhanced, more fleshed out origin as it was retold in Superman #1 from May 1939, and Captain Marvel's origin from Whiz Comics #2 that went on sale in December 1939. As I mentioned in the episode, there are some other great blogs and podcasts devoted to Captain Marvel, so be sure to check out Jeff Wright's Captain Marvel podcast & blog, the ShazamCast as well as Jeff Farnham's World's Mightiest Mortal Blog & Bronze Age themed Captain Marvel Adventures Blog.
