This month on All Star Superfan Podcast, hosts Alan and Rob are joined by Stephen Mooney, celebrated Irish creator of the Half Past Danger series of comic books and the writer and artist behind the most recent run of The Rocketeer, for an in-depth journey into the world of The Rocketeer.

Together, they explore the history of the character's creation, from Dave Stevens' original 1980 comic creation to its cultural impact, and the meticulous artistry that made it iconic.

The discussion then lifts off into the 1991 Disney film adaptation, analysing its production, storytelling, and how it captured the spirit of Stevens' work.

Stephen Mooney also shares insights into his career and creative inspirations and what it takes to make it in the comic book industry today.

Tune in and soar through the skies with All Star Superfan Podcast as we celebrate one of pop culture's most enduring pulp heroes!

Raw! Unfiltered! Uncut! (mostly)

Alan and Rob join forces to give their honest takes on the brand new Superman film, a day we never thought would come. Did this live up to our cautious optimism, or were we right to be concerned....?

"Dreams save us. Dreams lift us up and transform us. And on my soul, I swear... until my dream of a world where dignity, honor, and justice becomes the reality we all share -- I'll never stop fighting,"

Rob and Alan discuss the modern classic "Superman Smashes the Klan", how it cleverly adapts and expands upon the original radio serial from 1946 and how surprisingly fun it is for new readers.

PLUS we give our final thoughts as we prepare to watch James Gunn's Superman!

"The last pages haven't been written yet!"

Rob and Alan delve deep into the hidden treasures and half-baked mystery boxes of enterprising young man J.J. Abrams' oft-forgotten beam down into Metropolis with this deep dive into the unmade Superman film project SUPERMAN: FLYBY!

We explore our own histories with Abrams' often celebrated but often controversial projects, plus we learn just how many sacred tenets of Superman lore he's willing to jettison in favour of a fresh take. BUT! Is there jewels in these dusty Kryptonian mountains? Or has the mad master planner foiled us again with an empty mystery box?
