As discussed! We’ve gotten the Superman-outside-Lex’s-window scene a bunch of times now across time & media.

While I enjoy them all, the one from LOIS & CLARK still packs the biggest punch. “All you have to do is look up.” 🔥 Killer callback line.

November 12, 2025 at 7:06 PM

November 11, 2025 at 10:59 PM

As discussed! Was Pa Kent’s cover story to Lois — that the Kents had raised Superman in secret as a “stepbrother” to Clark — not the most bonkers choice during this run? 😂

Hope you’re enjoying the finale to our Byrne event! As discussed, Byrne wasn’t expected to exit when he did, and — according to Mike Carlin a few episodes ago — it was so abrupt that Byrne’s post-Supergirl Saga plans were unknown. Where do YOU think/hope Byrne would have gone story-wise?
November 5, 2025 at 4:56 AM
🚀 BYRNE FINALE! Guest Tim Bruns joins me for Byrne’s second & final year on the 3 main Super-titles.

It’s all been building to this. 🎧 & enjoy NOW!
November 4, 2025 at 6:10 PM
📰 EXTRA! EXTRA! 📰 In “The Girl Who Hired Superman,” counterfeiters hire Superman as entertainment to trick him into smuggling a forging plate overseas.

Why would Superman go along with this? Because he was going to use the 💵 to send kids to camp, of course! 😂

🎧 & enjoy!

⚡️ Two years ago, we presented “Red Skies,” an epic, multi-part journey through all of DC’s continuity-altering, Crisis-level events. It was a blast, even if I was *quite* fried after the Metal Wars.

October 24, 2025 at 4:24 PM

October 18, 2025 at 5:49 PM
BEHOLD the Peacemaker costume as displayed at NYCC last week!

Although the finale felt a bit anticlimactic to me, I did enjoy the emotional journey in Season 2 overall, and John Cena absolutely crushed it.

We discussed all that & more in Tuesday’s ep. Cue it up this weekend!
October 17, 2025 at 7:42 PM
📰 EXTRA! EXTRA! 📰 Rich Roney & I cover “Topsy Turvy” from Adventures of Superman Season 4 — in what is officially the shortest podcast episode I’ve ever recorded. 😂
