Earth R Superman

Ed and Steeven are reviewing Superman’s adventures, starting with Action Comics #1 and moving forward. This is the fourth podcast I have listened to that has decided to cover the golden age, and I’m glad to say this is a fun podcast where the hosts have a good rapport, nice senses of humor, and a great deal of affection for the source material. Because I like to read the comic before I listen to a podcast based on it in most cases, I like the fact that they just give a brief synopsis of the story. I’m here for their reactions, insights, and commentary about the comic, and I haven’t been disappointed. I also enjoy their banter, and like the fact that they interact with the listeners and feedback. So take flight (eventually, because Superman didn’t fly right away, maybe just jump as high as you can) with the Superman Super Show, it’s a great time! Matthew T. Cody @RadioSuperman
