Digging for Kryptonite: A Superman Fan Journey

Host Anthony Desiato and guest Chris Clow (The Comic Binge) dig into the Post-Infinite Crisis run on JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA by Brad Meltzer & Ed Benes on its 20th anniversary.
They discuss "The Tornado's Path" — featuring the team's resident android & his desire to be human — the Justice Society crossover "The Lightning Saga," and a trio of standalone tales ("Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow," "Walls," and "Monitor Duty").

Host Anthony Desiato and guest Ralph Puma (Kill Me Kate) shine a light H2SH Part One from BATMAN #158-163 by Jeph Loeb & Jim Lee. They discuss Hush's scheme to pit Bruce against his allies — by engineering a situation whereby Batman chooses to save the Joker's life — along with the book's delays, debatable character choices, and promised conclusion in the future.
PLUS! Anthony & Ralph examine the extended "Hush Saga," including the villain's earlier return appearances in BATMAN: GOTHAM KNIGHTS by A.J. Lieberman & Al Barrionuevo and in DETECTIVE COMICS & BATMAN: STREETS OF GOTHAM by Paul Dini & Dustin Nguyen.
Features additional audio clips by JJ Hodges (For Comic Junkies)!
