Welcome to another city smashing installment of a podcasting maxi-series called Moving Kryptonian Images: The Live Action and Animated Adventures of Superman! The purpose of this series is to celebrate the release of the new Superman film, written and directed by James Gunn and starring David Corenswet as Clark Kent/Superman, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor!

This time out I am joined by Anthony Desiato of Digging For Kryptonite: A Superman Fan Journey and Another Exciting Episode in the Adventures of Superman to talk about the first in a series of animated movies featuring DC characters or adaptations of actual comic book stories. Superman/Doomsday was released in September of 2007 and was not so much an adaptation of The Death and Return of Superman saga as something that was inspired by that story. Anthony and I discuss the pros and cons of taking story beats from the Death and Return (an important story for both of us) as well as the voice cast and the special features that came with the original DVD release. I also spend a good more time than necessary complaining about the Death and Return omnibus that came out at the same time.

Again, Anthony hosts Digging for Kryptonite and Another Exciting Episode in the Adventures of Superman. Both of these shows are excellent podcasts and Anthony has done such a great job shining a light on Superman history and the fifties Adventures of Superman television series.

Next Time: Moving Kryptonian Images continues with Donovan Morgan Grant, who joins me to talk about Superman/Batman: Public Enemies!

Welcome...or should I say thank you for returning to the seemingly never ending podcasting maxi-series called Moving Kryptonian Images: The Live Action and Animated Adventures of Superman! The purpose of this series is to celebrate the release of the new Superman film, written and directed by James Gunn and starring David Corenswet as Clark Kent/Superman, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor!

This time out Andrew Leyland of Hey Kids Comics, The Amazing Spider-Man From The Beginning, and The Overlooked Dark Knight fame joins me to talk about 2006's Superman Returns. In the interest of fairness I will warn you that our conversation is not exactly positive. This movie, the first live action Superman film in 19 years, had a huge marketing push and people, including us, were excited, but the final product was...mixed. Andy and I talk about the problems we had with the film but also the things about the film that we liked, which includes the score. We also talk about the lead-up to the movie and even the comic book tie-ins which were definitely stories told with words and images.

As previously mentioned Andy either hosts or co-hosts several other shows. These include Hey Kids Comics (which he co-hosts with his son Micheal), The Amazing Spider-Man From The Beginning (which he hosts on his own), and The Overlooked Dark Knight (which he co-hosts with me). These are all great shows, even the one with me, and you should definitely check them out.

It's Superman Day!

Yes, once again April 18th has rolled around and another Superman Day has come to pass and this year I was in a position to actually do something about it and that "thing" is something I've been planning for literally years and now I am finally getting it done.

Presenting...my Top 10 Bestest Superman Stories Ever!

Not the "best" Superman stories. Not my "favorite" Superman story. An amalgam of the two ideas mashed together to make for something that truly reflects what I love about Superman and his stories. After going through my thoughts on Top 10 lists in general, and talking about what criteria I used to come up with this list I get right into it. Some are obvious. Some less so. Some are tied to when I was a kid and some are very, very personal.

What are those Top 10 Bestest Stories? Well, I am not going to spoil that here. You'll have to listen to find out but it's totally worth it.
