Superman never made any money saving the world from Salomon Grundy but we're about to make an episode about another character who couldn't stay dead, Superman. Come listen to us talk about the death of an icon.
Dan takes us on an emotional journey as we explore Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale's A Superman for All Seasons. Tune in to hear us hold back the tears but also share all the laughs at this great exploration of an iconic character.
His action sequences are faster than a speeding bullet. His use of incredible CGI more powerful than a locomotive. He is able to break box-office records in a single bound (that one I'm just speculating on).
