#Interview – #JephLoeb Talks #Superman Run, “For All Seasons” and #Smallville: www.supermanhomepage.com/interview-je...

🚀 JEPH LOEB SPEAKS! This week, I interview the legendary writer about For All Seasons w/Tim Sale, his longtime collaboration with Ed McGuinness on Superman & Superman/Batman, & his time as a Supervising Producer on Smallville. Don’t miss a seminal moment in DFK history. 🎧 NOW!

🚀 Soon.

🍿 NEW EP! Come for the MAN OF TOMORROW reactions, stay for the survey of JamesGunn’s original DCU slate as announced in January 2023. Zach from Always Hold On To Smallville joins me to break it all down. 🎧 NOW! Jeph Loeb interview in 1 week!

Where do you land on this Toyman issue? As discussed, it was great to see Johns do a villain spotlight, but I remain very mixed on his retconning of THAT Toyman story from the 90s — especially since Johns would pull the same move with Brainiac. 🎧 to Friday’s bonus edition ICYMI!

COMING SOON: The JEPH LOEB Interview. We’ve talked a lot about the Loeb/Kelly era on this podcast, & I got to speak with Joe Kelly himself a while back. Now, at last, the time has come to chat with the author of FOR ALL SEASONS, SUPERMAN, & SUPERMAN/BATMAN. 🎧 later this month!

📰 EXTRA FRIDAY EDITION! Join @superherocinephiles.com & yours truly as we conclude our tour through the Post-Infinite Crisis stories from writer GEOFF JOHNS on another all-new DFK. We talk Gary Frank, the Legion, Brainiac, Secret Origin — and a certain Toyman retcon. 🎧 NOW! 2nd ep in one week!

I know, I know: We’re all amped up about the MAN OF TOMORROW movie news — and yes, we’ll be addressing it on the show shortly — but did you “catch” our latest episode on the first half of the Geoff Johns Action Comics era?

🚀 WE’RE BACK! 🚀 @superherocinephiles.com joins me to dig into the first half of the Post-Infinite Crisis Action Comics run by GEOFF JOHNS. 20 years later, where do we land on his infusion of Pre-Crisis elements & Superman ’78 sensibilities? 🎧 NOW! Part 2 coming soon.

New DFK coming in hot on Tuesday! Your homework — not required, but should you choose to accept it — is the post-Infinite Crisis Action Comics run by GEOFF JOHNS. This two-part podcast event is a long time coming. Enjoy the rest of this long holiday weekend & join us Tuesday!

No new episode this week or next. Enjoying a little end-of-summer break — and giving everyone a chance to catch up on any missed episodes — but we’ll be back with a vengeance in just a couple of weeks!

🗞️🗞️ EXTRA! EXTRA! We've made it to the end of Season 3 of Adventures of Superman. Rich Roney joins me for "King for a Day," in which Jimmy is mistaken for Prince Gregori of Burgonia, and Clark has to save him from a series of assassination attempts. 🎧 NOW! Season 4 on 9/18!

🦸‍♀️ NEW EP! It's a big LOIS LANE showcase as we dig into 10 times she gained powers across time & media. Sweet-Sweet & De Voe join me first for "Rise of the Superwoman" by Williamson & Mora, then Chris MacKenzie tags in for a fun survey of the others! 🎧 NOW. Last ep of August!

📣 WE GOT MERCH, baby! At long last, you can get your DFK shirts, hats, mugs & pins. Wear ’em with pride. 👊 Order your gear here ➡️ www.teepublic.com/t-shirt/7732... Because @drunkenavenger.bsky.social demanded it!

We’ve already delivered Justice for Pete Ross, but after excavating Austen’s Action run, a Justice for Lana (and Lois, frankly) episode might be justified! Thanks to everyone who’s already listened to our Chuck Austen breakdown! Was a fascinating one to prep for & record.

Did you listen to Anthony and me chat about Pete Ross on @diggingforkrpod.bsky.social? dangermart.blog/2025/08/05/p...

💥 NEW EP! This one is a long time coming: In the early 2000s, writer Chuck Austen was EVERYWHERE. On the DC side, he tackled Superman over a pair of fill-ins, a little-remembered (& surprisingly solid!) Jimmy Olsen maxiseries, & a maligned yearlong run on Action. At last, we break it ALL down! 🎧

🔥 Our big CHUCK AUSTEN episode is coming in hot at midnight EST! Mike & I take you through it all, including fill-ins on Superman & The Man of Steel, the overlooked Metropolis maxiseries, “Pain of the Gods” from JLA, and — of course — THAT much-maligned Action Comics run.

This Fall: “BYRNED,” a 5-episode epic digging into the entire John Byrne Man of Steel era. We’ve hit on these stories before, but never all at once or with this intense a focus. This is a long time coming. Stay tuned!

🔥 We’ve talked a ton about James Gunn’s Superman, but now it’s time to break down that OTHER big Summer superhero movie. Fat Moose Comics owner Shawn Hendricks joins me on this month’s BEYOND METROPOLIS to discuss #FantasticFour. 🎧 NOW at the “DCU Tourist” tier & up!

Okay, all you pie-thieves & mule-stealers! It’s the genuinely HILARIOUS episode “Flight to the North” from Adventures of Superman Season 3, in which kindhearted Sylvester J. Superman is mistaken for the real deal. Rob from @allstarsuperfan.bsky.social & I had a blast discussing. 🎧 NOW!

Have you listened to our big PETE ROSS episode yet? If so, what’s YOUR pick for the role adult Pete can/should serve in modern stories? This piece by Chuck Brouilette captures THE quintessential Silver Age Pete Ross moment — when ⚡️ illuminated the tent & Pete saw Clark changing into Superboy.

Host Anthony Desiato and guest Martin Gray (Too Dangerous... Review Blog) make good on a longtime podcast promise and deliver justice at last for Pete Ross — the oft-neglected (at best) childhood best friend of one Clark Kent. Listen here or wherever you subscribe.

Available for your ears now at @diggingforkrpod.bsky.social, an epic discussion of Superboy’s best pal, Pete Ross… why do Anthony and I reckon he’s had a terrible deal in comics and beyond?

⚖️ JUSTICE FOR PETE ROSS! @martgray.bsky.social joins me to chart the history of supporting character Pete Ross — from noble, silent protector of the secret to his many other roles & long absences over the years — and speak up for Clark’s oft-neglected best friend. 🎧 NOW!

Justice for Pete Ross — coming TOMORROW! Midnight EST on all podcast platforms. With first-time guest Martin Gray!

BONUS! Earlier this week, we surveyed the Clark/Superman ID across time & media. Now, in a special companion, Perry & I examine instances in recent years where Superman revealed his secret ID to the 🌎 — & make the case that this is a storytelling misstep. 🎧 NOW. 🆓 on Patreon! No account needed.

🤠 We’ve arrived at a true standout of the Adventures of Superman color era — “The Bully of Dry Gulch.” Rich Roney returns as we discuss this very humorous ep. Highlights include Clark not giving two 💩s about a jailed Jimmy but springing into action to protect Lois. 😂 🎧 NOW!

Host Anthony Desiato and guest Rich Roney break down "The Bully of Dry Gulch" (Season 3, Episode 10) from "Adventures of Superman" starring George Reeves, in which Lois & Jimmy are stranded in a small town out of the Old West and must contend with a domineering gunslinger.

The beginning. Justice for Pete Ross is coming!

That feeling when the movie buzz is starting to fade — but there’s still a BRAND-NEW episode of Digging for Kryptonite to enjoy. 🎧 to our big hypno-glasses/secret identity dive if you haven’t already!

Host Anthony Desiato and guest Ed Gross dig into "Superman" no.330 from the Bronze Age — aka the comic book origin of the hypno-glasses that inspired their use in James Gunn's "#Superman." Listen here or wherever you subscribe!

👓 NEW EP! This week, @edgrosswriter.bsky.social & I take you through SUPERMAN #330, the Bronze Age story that introduced the concept of “hypno-glasses” — a bit of a misnomer, as we discuss — now seen on screen in James Gunn’s #Superman. We also talk about the Clark/Superman ID & evolution. 🎧 NOW!

TOMORROW. Superman historian Ed Gross & I take you through the comic book origins of the HYPNO-GLASSES. Don’t miss it.

Last week was our biggest yet! In fairness, I did stack the deck with all those episodes 😆, but still — you guys kept coming back & made each one a success. Much appreciated! Please consider leaving the podcast a rating & review (particularly on Apple Podcasts). 🙏 🔥 Poster by Mickaël Journou!

Business cards are in! Will have loads of these on hand as I walk the floor of NYCC this October. Next up: MERCH!!!

Host Anthony Desiato and guest Zach Moore (Always Hold On To Smallville) break down "The Magic Necklace" (Season 3, Episode 9) from "Adventures of Superman" starring George Reeves.
