Come one, come all as Micheal & Andrew embark upon an epic making, 4 part quest to investigate The Silver Age of Comics! Was it really as daft as everybody says it was? Was it full of Super-Dickery? Or was there actually some pretty deep and haunting tales in this most innocuous of era’s? Well, strap yourselves in and prepare to find out and Mike & Andrew team up with the man who started this whole Silver Age thing, JULIUS SCHWARTZ and look at SHOWCASE #4 – the debut of the all-new FLASH! Then hop over to another company and two men who further refined the era, STAN LEE & JACK KIRBY as they also bring back a revered old concept and dust him off for a new generation. Yes, CAPTAIN AMERICA LIVES from AVENGERS #4. But in a drag out, knock down, whose better, whose best fight to the finish, which of these stories still hold up in the 21st century? Tune in and find out!
