“A new podcast, dedicated to the Superman Giants of the Silver Age. At the time they were published, they were reprints of older stories, but as Bob Fisher, one of the hosts notes, we kids didn't always know that. To us, they were simply Superman stories that were new to us. Bob Fisher, whom I've listened to on the Superman Forever Radio podcast, and Jon M. Wilson, whom I've only listened to when he's guested on podcasts I've listened to, clearly enjoy the subject and have a respect for the characters and time period under discussion, without being overly reverent. This makes for a fun listen. Fair warning to any casual fans considering adding this podcast to their listening list: Giants were, indeed, giant, with many stories, so this makes for longer podcast episodes, the first one clocking in at a bit over two-and-a-half hours. If you like to listen to the whole episode at one sitting, as I do, be prepared to dedicate a good block of time. Otherwise, it may be helpful to listen to an episode in pieces. That wouldn't be hard to do, as a listener could "break" between stories. No matter how you listen, I think you'll find it quite enjoyable.”Read full review »
