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?

A superhero for the 90s!

Welcome to the first ever episode of "Superboy: A Rewatch Podcast for the 90s" where Rob takes a look at two episodes of the forgotten 'Superboy' show - one from the first two seasons (when the show was called 'Superboy: The Series' and set in Shuster University) and another from the later, more polished seasons (when the show was renamed 'The Adventures of Superboy' and took on a noirish urban setting).

Tonight Rob is joined by none other than his All Star fraternity brother Alan Burke as they make their way through the first ever episode of Superboy, the notoriously terrible "The Jewel of Techacal", only to chase it down with the vastly superior "Bride of Bizarro". Couldn't Lex Luthor have just invented Facebook? Why a car chase in the middle of a swamp? Why is Bizarro wearing John Newton's costume from season one? Just how good IS the wirework in this show? All these questions and many more answered in this exclusive bonus episode of All Star Superfan! Much more S:ARP coming very soon!

Superboy/The Adventures of Superboy is available on DVD from Warner Archive and available to purchase digitally from Amazon.

The sun is dying… Earth’s champion is falling and there’s one last feat to accomplish…so naturally our solar suits are packed and the Fortress robots are locked and loaded for Part 2 of our epic All Star Superman retrospective!

Once again Rob and Alan are joined by the host of Digging for Kryptonite, Anthony Desiato as we soar through issues #7–12 of Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely’s modern classic.

We also discuss the enduring legacy of the book, including the recent announcement of a new audiobook series and the 2011 animated movie – does it live up to the comic? What was left out, what worked, and what missed the mark?

PLUS: Alan, Rob and Anthony give their thoughts on the new Spin Master Superman: The Movie figures! When do we get a Gus Gorman figure?!

Up in the sky? No—it’s in your ears, RIGHT NOW. 🎧

In this very special two part series, Rob O' Connor and Alan Burke are joined by Superman scholar and 'Digging for Krypronite' host Anthony Desiato for a comprehensive retrospective of one of the most celebrated Superman stories of all time: Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely’s All Star Superman.

In Part One, we dive into the first six issues of this modern masterpiece, examining the mythic scope, poetic structure, and emotional depth that have made All Star Superman a defining portrayal of the Man of Steel in the 21st century. From Superman's mortality to the Bottle City of Kandor, from Luthor’s schemes to Lois Lane’s birthday surprise, nothing is off limits as we explore what makes this series so timeless and beloved.

Whether you're reading along or revisiting an old favourite, this is a must listen for fans of the Big Blue Boy Scout.
