And I have returned to continue with my coverage of the Superman adventures that were published in November 1940.  First, Charlie Niemeyer helps me take a look at Action Comics 32.  And in other media, I finish my look at the daily newspaper story where Lois has become a pawn of a mysterious master villain.  Then Superman punches up a robot invasion in the Sunday strips.  And the radio show concludes the Yellow Mask's return, deals with an invisible man, and sees a five million dollar train robbery.

Next up: The Justice Society of America!

After an extended gap, the show is back for the first of three episodes to cover the adventures of Superman that were published in November of 1940.  Actually, the first two of those episodes will be Superman, the third will be a recently announced Justice Society of America special.  (Hooray!)

The issue at hand today is Superman 8, but rather than tease the contents, I'm going to leave it to you to listen because there's a bit of a reveal in the course of the episode that I don't want to spoil.  Just trust me on this one.  And then come back in a couple weeks or so for more.

It's been a while, hasn't it?  Did you miss me?  Well, summer is here, school's out, and that means time for more podcasts!  In this episode, I am joined by Charlie Niemeyer once again to look at Action Comics 31.  Someone has put the town of Brentville to sleep, and it's up to Superman to find out who and how and to put a stop to it!  Jack Burnley brings his beautiful art to the story, and it's a pretty darn good one.  Then in the daily newspaper strips, Lois has become a pawn of "the Master," but who is the Master and what is he trying to accomplish by getting Lois Lane fired from the Daily Planet?  Meanwhile, on Sundays, everything comes to a head in the exploration of Lois Lane's inherited property.  And finally, the Yellow Mask returns to menace the free world on the Superman radio show.  Lots of good stuff is going on, and you're invited to join in the fun!

Welcome back to the goldenest Superman podcast ever produced, Golden Age Superman.  Here in episode 30B, I'll discuss Action Comics 30 with the help of Charlie Niemeyer, as we see golden globes of doom being used to destroy people, leaving behind nothing but a shadow imprint on the ground.  It's creepy gruesome stuff, and it makes for some fun Superman goodness.  Then, over in the newspaper strips, a hooded saboteur starts sabotaging the water and power of Metropolis, and Lois Lane gets closer to the land she inherited from Bill Bixby.  And on the radio show, Superman finally reveals his existence to one lucky boy.  All this and your emails and iTunes reviews.  Come check it out!

Perry White joins the comic book cast in this episode's coverage of Superman 7 which is full of Joe Shuster goodness!  First, Superman has to save an innocent man from being framed for murder by three kingpins of crime.  Then it's off to Gay City for Clark to find out why men are exploding at the slightest touch, but Perry tells Lois to stay behind because Gay City is too dangerous for a woman.  And after cleaning up some local politics, Clark takes Lois out to dinner but they're kidnapped and held for execution by the "Black Gang".  Come give a listen!

This episode, I am joined again by Charlie Niemeyer of Superman in the Bronze Age to look at Jack Burnley's work in Action Comics 29.  It's a great little mystery that jams 13 pages more full of story than they often are.  Feel free to laugh and mock as Jon stumbles all over the various characters' names, as the guest patiently waits for him to figure out what's going on.  Then over in the newspapers, Lois gets kidnapped (like that's news) and Superman goes for a nap on top of a train, while on the radio show, Clark assists in the plunder of an ancient civilization.  All that and more on Golden Age Superman!

Golden Age Superman is back again, this time with 100% more voices!  This episode covers the second half of Superman's adventures from July 1940, and I am joined by Charlie Niemeyer (of Superman in the Bronze Age and frequently of The Thrilling Adventures of Superman) to look at Action Comics 28, where Jack Burnley becomes the regular artist on the title.  It's circus silliness involving a thief in leopard print, so brace yourselves!  Then Clark disguises himself as a tramp during the week while finally taking down the "Lamite" on Sunday in the newspapers, with a trip to Happyland Amusement Park coming at us from the radio show!  The fun-filled episode is filled with fun, so check it out!

Welcome back to Golden Age Superman.  This is the first of two episodes that will examine the Superman adventures published during the month of July 1940, and this episode focuses on Superman 6.  First, Lois Lane is accused of murder.  Then Clark and Lois visit the small town of Gateston to help their newspaper expose the protection rackets going on there.  In South America, earthquakes and tornadoes ravage a small country, but someone is trying to stop the citizens of Metropolis from sending aid.  And finally, a corrupt construction company is killing crowds with their inferior building materials.  What can Superman do to help in all of these situations?  Find out in this episode!  Also, your emails and iTunes reviews are read!

After last month's monster four-hour episode, Golden Age Superman is back with a more manageable length to cover the stories of June 1940.  In this episode, I take a look at Action Comics 27, which features Clark's and Lois's investigations of a rehabilitation home for wayward youths.  There is abuse afoot, and Lois is determined to stop it, and if you think she'll need Superman's help, you're right.  And thus ensues one of the longest battles ever between Superman and a simple mortal!  Will the Man of Steel prevail against ... MR. TWEED??!!  Find out in this latest episode!

Welcome to Golden Age Superman.  This episode, I spend a little while taking a look at Superman 5, New York World's Fair Comics 1940, Action Comics 26, and all the usual monthly doses of Superman in other media.  Highlights include Alex Evell's campaign against the Planet (get it?  evell = evil), Jack Burnley's first work on Superman at the New York World's Fair, and Professor Cobalt's quack clinic taking advantage of FDR's drive to cure polio. All that and more make this the BIGGEST EPISODE EVER! of the show.  We also see the debut of two new powers -- photographic memory, and super facial muscular control!  You won't wanna miss it!
