Host Anthony Desiato begins digging into John Byrne's 1986-1988 tenure on the Superman titles — which redefined the character for the Post-Crisis era — by interviewing one of the people who was there: longtime DC Comics editor and returning podcast guest MIKE CARLIN.
But FIRST! In the prologue, Anthony welcomes back Sweet-Sweet Bernie Gerstmayr (Aw Yeah Comics - Skokie) to discuss the road to Byrne's seminal MAN OF STEEL miniseries.
PLUS: Anthony presents a pair of epilogue segments with veteran Pre-Crisis Superman fans — Rich Roney and Martin Gray (Too Dangerous... Review Blog) — who each received the reboot differently in 1986.
This is the first installment of a multi-episode event revisiting the entire Byrne era on Superman. Next week: The MAN OF STEEL miniseries!
