Case and Jmike continue their journey through Legends of the Dead Earth with guest Cly from Point in Progress! This time, they’re looking at 1996’s Superman Annual #8, “The League of Supermen,” a far-future story where Superman’s legacy lives on through a team of heroes who each inherit only one of his powers... and all the complications that come with it.

Supergirl has arrived in the DCU, and Men of Steel is here to talk about it. Case, Jmike, and special guest Keith Lehtinen break down the new film, from Kara’s traumatic past on Argo to her bond with Krypto, her contrast with Superman, the use of Lobo, and whether this adaptation of Woman of Tomorrow sticks the landing. The episode also features cameo reactions from Alan Williams, Ben Haslar, Bret Eagleston, Jesse Fresco, Kris Ingersoll, Mitch Punpayuk, Nic Woolfe, Randy Allain, Logan Crowley, and Red from Overly Sarcastic Productions.

Captain America comes to Men of Steel for the Fourth of July!
