Host Anthony Desiato and guest Nathan MacKenzie (Superman: The Animated Podcast) dig into the overlooked LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES animated series from 2006-2008 that teamed a "young Superman" (aka Superboy) with the futuristic team for 2 seasons and 26 episodes.

They discuss how Clark's tenure with the Legion imparts key lessons that will serve him upon his return to the present day, the show's effective choice to focus on a core group of Legionnaires (while still representing the team's vast cast), the inclusion of villain Imperiex in his only significant media adaptation outside of the comics, and more.
