Host Anthony Desiato and guest Mike Sangregorio dig into the Superman bibliography of notorious writer Chuck Austen, including his 2004-2005 run on ACTION COMICS with Ivan Reis — which resurrected the decades-old romantic rivalry between Lois Lane & Lana Lang, introduced a new Gog, and infused Clark with a Spidey-esque sensibility.

Host Anthony Desiato and guest Martin Gray (Too Dangerous... Review Blog) make good on a longtime podcast promise and deliver justice at last for Pete Ross — the oft-neglected (at best) childhood best friend of one Clark Kent. Since his Silver Age debut, Pete has served many roles: noble, silent protector of Clark's secret; off-panel victim of Toyman & Prankster; husband to Lana & father to Clark Peter Ross; Vice President of the United States alongside Lex Luthor; and more. With few exceptions, Pete's value as a character has rarely been met by the stories that feature him, and the time has come to speak up for Pete and the place he deserves to occupy in the Superman mythology.Support the show and receive exclusive podcast content at Patreon.com/AnthonyDesiato, including the spinoff podcasts BEYOND METROPOLIS and DIGGING FOR JUSTICE!Visit BCW Supplies and use promo code FSP to save 10% on your next order of comics supplies.
