  • Gold standard!

    Host Michael Bradley is a podcasting luminary whose passion and enthusiasm for Superman comes through in each and every episode of this fantastic and entertaining podcast! Starting with the debut in 1938, he does a great job of keeping within the context of the era as he moves forward and explores the growing popularity of Superman and introductions to new parts of his mythology. I love his dry wit, spectacular sense of humor, and he is a fountain of information that makes you feel more knowle... more

  • Man of Steel review

    This is based on only listening to the MOS review, so for all I know the other podcasts are better, but after listening to about an hour of this show I just couldn't take it anymore and stopped. Too much of the conversation was the nerds talking about themselves and having a dick measuring contest over who knows more about Superman and who has the better industry contacts to brag over. Whomever the guy is who writes for the Superman home page really needs to turn it down a few notches - you talk... more

  • Superman History 101

    Michael does an absolutely wonderful job telling everything about Superman's history. Even when an episode is covering a pretty boring story Michael finds a way to keep you interested be it an interesting tid bit of history or some comical sound bites. Michael is very knowledgeable in his podcasts and is far too modest about it. Not a quality a lot of podcasters have. Job well done sir! The Thrilling Adventures of Superman lives up to it's name thanks to the host! -Garrey

  • Informative and Fun

    Michael Bradley approaches the Golden Age of Superman comics with wit, wisdom, and a handful of irreverence, all the time giving a loving but not pandering view of the world's greatest superhero. He covers all the aspects of the character, including the comics, radio shows, newspaper strips, and more, and never fails to both entertain and inform. Well worth listening to, even if you aren't the biggest fan of the Man of Steel.

  • Detailed and Authoritative

    This podcast covers the Golden Age Superman across all mediums, and is a great show for anyone interested in the Man of Steel OR in the history of pop culture/mass merchandising. Detailed and authoritative, host Michael Bradley is like a Professor of Superman Studies, delivering a the coolest college class ever. A lot of fun.
