In this week's examination of perhaps the first "real" superhero movie blockbuster, we talk about Superman's strengths and weaknesses as a character, the Christian parallels in a hero created by two Jewish guys, the distinction between media that is timeless and media that is groundbreaking, and so much more.

Follow us on our social media channels and get ready for next week when we cover Season 1: Eps. 1-9 of the animated series Ultimate Spider-Man (2012). Have your own thoughts on Supes or Spidey? Shoot them to [email protected] and we'll read them on the show!
