In episode 162 of the Man of Screen podcast, Mike Zummo takes a look at the first two-part episode of the Salkind-produced “Superboy” series.
This episode is going to have everything you would come to expect from Mikes coverage of a two-part episode. Its going to be covered as two separate episode since thats how it aired and how do you like that?
This episode is going to have something that you wouldnt expect from a show of this vintage. There will be CONTINUITY as this episode is written by Mike Carlin and Andy Helfer, two DC comics creators.
See how they tie up all four of their episodes in one go. See the return of the gaseous opponent. See a possessed cop, see Pa Kent become accused of being a terrorist and see what happens when Pa and Lana are alone together.
Its not what you think.
But all that an “Revenge of the Alien.”
Next time: “Stand Up and Get Knocked down” and “Meet Mr. Mxyzptlk”
