Nearly three years before the launch of The Superman Super Show, I read the first appearance of Superman in Action Comics #1 for the first time.

Two years after the launch of The Superman Super Show, I decided to investigate exactly when Action Comics #1 was actually published and was startled by what I found.

And in between all that, I ask the question: "Did I Just Read the Perfect Superman Comic?"

That's what you're getting today, just three segments, and the are all about Superman!

• A Look at the first appearance of Superman in Action Comics #1 by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. Published by DC Comics in May, 1938. (Originally published in the second incarnation of the Steeven Orr Else podcast Episode 5 from August 19, 2019)
• Did I Just Read the Perfect Superman Comic? (Previously Unreleased)
• Date Gate: An Action Comics Conspiracy or When Was Action Comics #1 Actually Published? (Previously Unreleased)

Plus, great gobs of retro Superman commercials selling stuff from action figures, bath toys, and commemorative glasses.

Steeven Orr Else is a presentation of Steeven Orr Else Media. For more nerdy goodness from me, check out somanypodcasts.com.
