Notice comes (embarrassingly) a month late, but Billy Hogan has another episode of the Superman Fan Podcast, episode 268, complete with Jerry Siegel awesomeness.
ACTION COMICS #286 is the only title on the docket this episode. Its only Siegel-written tale is the 12-page Supergirl story, “The Death of Luthor!” While the Maid of Might relishes in finally being able to operate in the open, she finds a new challenge when she struggles to revive the Superman family’s greatest enemy after accidentally killing him in battle!
It was a story cited by longtime editor Mort Weisinger as an example of the greatness and emotional impact of Siegel’s writing. Do you agree? Give a listen and find out.
