info_outlineIn this week's issue we get back together after a month off to chat about the one and only Superman! With the 80th anniversary and the release of issue Action Comics #1000, we needed to try and understand what makes this red-underwear-wearing alien so special. Join us as we dissect the new issue, discuss our hang-ups and some of the triumphs throughout Supes' history. We then will answer some super-sized questions from listeners just like you. We get to the bottom of some of the biggest burning questions about the other big blue dick in the sky. What's with all the kryptonite? What are some of his weirder abilities? All this and more, but first we break down the latest and greatest in DC news.
