The Man of Screen Podcast Episode 171 – Superboy: Nightmare Island/Bizarro … The Thing of Steel

In episode 171 of the Man of Screen podcast, Mike Zummo continues his run through the second season of the “Superboy” TV series episodes 5 and 6.

First, were going on a trip, on a three-hour tour, to be exact. Or at least thats what Andy is singing about. But their bought will go adrift, and theyll be marooned, just like Gilligan and Co. did several decades before.

And theyll encounter a red-haired alien, who has his designs not only on Lana, but on getting off the planet. Why does he need Superboys power? And without his abilities, how will he get them off “Nightmare Island”.

And then were going into the lab with Professor Peterson, but this time things are going to go seriously wrong. The good professor is messing around with a duplicator ray and as one would expect, it hits Superboy.

And it creates a duplicate Superboy. Is it dangerous? One thing we do know is that it am “Bizarro … The Thing of Steel”.

Next time: We will finish the Bizarro storyline with “The Battle with Bizarro” and then have our second encounter with Mr. Mxyzptlk in “Mr. and Mrs. Superboy”.
