Welcome to episode 37 of The Thrilling Adventures of Superman. The show’s mission is to explore the history and development of the Superman in his formative years by chronicling the Man of Steel’s Golden Age adventures in comics, radio and film.

Michael is joined by Billy Hogan of Superman Fan Podcast for a look at SUPERMAN #4. It’s the first issue of the title to contain four new Superman stories, and it brings the action as we find Superman taking on the challenges posed by earthquakes, giant beasts, spies, racketeers and more! Also this issue, a brand new menace rears its head in the form of… a man named Luthor!

Be sure to check out Billy Hogan’s excellent Superman Fan Podcast, as well as his blog, My Pull List. A huge thanks once more to Mr. Hogan for coming on the show.

And don’t forget: For the month of September, the show is bi-weekly! Check back on Tuesdays and Fridays for more Superman awesomeness for your ears!
