The Man of Screen Podcast Episode 85 – The New Adventures of Superman: Season 3, Episodes 1-4; The Adventures of Superboy: Season 3, Episodes 1-2

In episode 85 of the Man of Screen podcast, Mike Zummo begins the final stretch of his voyage through Filmations Superman/Superboy cartoons with the beginning of Season 3.

Hear about the format change and the sudden change in the show from all one-part Superman stories to two-parters. Are the stories better? Do they benefit from the additional time or is it just Silver Age silliness?

Listen and find out as Superman comes up against “Luthors Lethal Laser” and then Krypto will get hit by a Kryptonite meteor that will have Superboy saying, “Forget Me Not, Superdog”.

Then Jimmy Olsen and Superman will learn “Can a Luthor Change His Spots” in a story written by a DC comics staple. Who is it? You didnt think I would reveal it here, did you? And then the Boy of Steel will find himself upstaged when “Superboy Meets Mighty Lad”.

Next time: Mike will cover the next two Superman stories, “Team of Terror” and “Rain of Iron” and the next two Superboy episodes, “King Superboy” and “Double Trouble”.
