REIGN OF THE SUPERMEN BEGINS!

This week Mike and Jeff begin (finally, some would say) their coverage of the last act in the DEATH AND RETURN OF SUPERMAN saga and they even brought a friend along. Joining the boys is Jon M. Wilson, host of GOLDEN AGE SUPERMAN and co-host of THE NEW 52 ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN and it is a good thing Jon's here because there is not one but four Supermen running around Metropolis. Two of those Supermen are introduced this week, the first in ACTION COMICS #687. Has Kal-El of Krypton returned? It certainly seems that way but why does he wear a visor and, you know, kill people? Then, in SUPERMAN: THE MAN OF STEEL #22 a true Man of Steel emerges, but what is the dark secret of Henry Johnson and who the heck is the White Rabbit? All of this plus MEANWHILE AT THE DAILY PLANET, the news segment that tells you what was going on in the world at the time these books were on the stands!

Mike and Jeff would like to thank Jon for coming out to play and are pretty psyched that he'll be joining them again down the road.

Next time: Cyborg! Superboy! Another guest host!

It was a few decades before songwriters started using Superman as an expression of our humanity; the Brill building writers stayed away from the topic either because the metaphor was too complex, or because of copyright issues - if a song is about Superman, you could be on the hook (Chuck Berry had to fork over royalties for "Run Rudolph Run" since he didn't own the rights to the magical reindeer).

As the character developed through movies and TV shows, Superman became more complex and more like us. Famous musicians often felt like both Clark Kent and Superman, and they started writing songs about it. Some, like Five for Fighting, walk a precarious line between being hero and human, while others, like R.E.M., unabashedly shout their greatness from the rooftops. Some realize they can't be heroes at all.

In one way or another, they're all searching for Superman.

For the second of three episodes this month, Jon, Dave, and Mike are going to be looking at the fifth issue of each Superteen title.

Superboy #5 -- "Breakout" -- Before heading out to beat on Wonder Girl, Superboy wants to save Caitlin Fairchild. But why? What's his motivation? Can we figure out what Lobdell is trying to say?

Supergirl #5 -- "Homecoming" -- Kara goes home and finds nothing but death and destruction. And a big ugly who beats on her. What happened to them? What does it all mean? And who shot Zor-El?

The length of the discussion for the non-Action titles this month was lengthy enough that Jon felt a cut was in order. The episodes are left a touch on the short side compared to usual, but that's better than super-long for some people, so here it is. Look for the rest in a week.

Isaac has also written his review of this episode for our "Young Justice" Reviews.

The special takes place during the Super Friends era of the Justice League, focusing on characters like Aquaman, Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman, but featuring dozens of other DC characters along the way. Much like the second Robot Chicken Star Wars Special showed "behind-the-scenes" stories of bounty hunters like Boba Fett, the DC Comics Special will show some never-before-seen moments in the lives of DC characters.

"What we like to do in Robot Chicken is take all the things that are outrageous and fantastic, and then superimpose the mundane and the normal over them," Green said. "So you've got something as outrageous as the Legion of Doom, but nobody talks about the inter-office politicking. We like to take the things that people most relate to in their regular lives and show them how similar that is to their heroes."

State Rep. Bill Patmon (D-Cleveland) said H.B. 339 was unanimously passed out of committee in early March, and has continued movement through the legislature.

Patmon, who introduced H.B. 339, provided sponsor testimony on the bill to honor the creators of Superman with Superman-themed Ohio license plates.

"This legislation is, and always has been, about heroism, support, strength and caring for our fellow man, woman or child," Patmon said, of the recently passed bill.

The license plates will be designed to commemorate Joe Shuster and Jerry Siegel, the two men responsible for the original interpretation of Superman in comics.
