My Summer with Superman

Chris and Jacob return for the second part of their Superman 2025 discussion! Chris' attempts to hold back tears finally fails, and we respond to a very special listener email.

It's all lead to this. Chris and Jacob have finally both seen James Gunn's Superman!

In this spoiler-filled part 1 of 2 chat, the SuperBoys talk about this new take on the Man of Steel, detail some possible deleted scenes, describe their opening night experiences and more!

Superman returns today, so we felt is was only natural to watch 2006’s Superman Returns! Chris and Jacob break down the good, the bad, and the weird waxy CG of this attempt at bringing back our favorite cultural icon. We also talk the Dairy Queen tie in, movie merch AND! wait until the end for a special sneak peek at Chris’ reaction to James Gunn’s Superman!

All this and more in a special 3 hour episode!

Chris and Jacob are back ranking the first images debuting each of our movie Supermans to date. How does Gunn’s measure up? Who looks the most like Superman? Do these accurately capture the vibe of the movie? Listen and find out!

Also discussed: Elliot S! Maggin’s novel Last Son of Krypton, apologies to Bryan Hitch, memories of The Authority, how much money is it worth to spend to make one person not a dick, and whether or not Gunn’s Superman will kill Chris.

In the second part of Chris and Jacob's two-part Superman: The Movie spectacular, they finally crack the code of what exactly is happening at the end of that movie when Superman flies back in time. Also, we answer our first listener question and Jacob outlines a John Byrne reading order that's all filler, no killer (the filler stuff is actually the good stuff).

Chris and Jacob are back to talk Richard Donner's Superman! We get into the differences of the three main cuts of the film, dive into some of the previous screenplays and gush about all of the perfect choices they made while making this.

Welcome to the first episode of My Summer With Superman! All summer long, Chris Haley and Jacob deNobel are going to be talking Superman. Comics, radio shows, cartoons, TV shows, merch, movies, it's all fair game!

In our debut episode we talk about our secret origins as Superman fans and how we're feeling about the new movie and its associated marketing push.
