  • Superman & Captain Marvel Power Hour Ep 001
    Welcome to the re-posting of the inaugural episode of the Superman & Captain Marvel Power Hour Podcast, the podcast devoted to exploring the publishing history & adventures of both the Last Son of Krypton and the World's Mightiest Mortal. I am your host Kyle Benning, and thank you for joining me on this journey to explore the evolution of my 2 favorite DC Characters, Superman & Captain Marvel. As we follow these characters' development from the Golden Age to modern day, I'll be comparing and contrasting their development and changes through the decades and exploring in what ways these two characters are similar yet very, very different. In each episode, I will cover solo stories for each character, or cover an adventure that features both Superman and Captain Marvel together. To kick-off my podcast, the first episode will be focused on the Superman/Shazam!: The Return of Black Adam animated short from 2010. This podcast is made for entertainment purposes only.

  • Crisis on Multiple Earths Episode 004 "The Crises on Earths One & Two"
    The Justice Society of Earth-2, Golden Aged Costumed Heroes defending freedom against Axis Forces and costumed villains that prey on the weak. The Justice League of America of Earth-1, heroes born out of the atomic age and space race defending the world from colorfully costumed villains and evil cosmic conquerors. There would then come a time when these costumed heroes would answer an even greater calling, to save not only their own world, but parallel worlds with alternate versions of themselves. Two Generations of costumed heroes on two separate parallel earths, teaming-up to save millions, and so began the exploits of the Earth 2 Justice Society and their Earth 1 Justice League counterparts, in a series of crossover adventures that can only be described as CRISIS ON MULTIPLE EARTHS! Welcome to the 4th Episode of the Crisis on Multiple Earths Podcast, the podcast where I explore the Silver & Bronze Age Crisis on Multiple Earths crossovers between the JLA heroes of Earth-One and the JSA heroes of Earth-Two. This time out we have the first full-on crossover between the JLA and JSA teams, courtesy of the 2-parter in Justice League of America #21 & 22 from the summer of 1963.
