Recorded live and dripping with pulpy paranoia, Ed and Steeven plunge into a Metropolis gripped by a secret crime wave — thugs in ominous armbands, a citizens’ committee that might be more dangerous than the crooks, and a twist that will make you double-take the man behind the moustache.In this episode the Super Fellas blow the dust off World’s Finest Comics #2 and race from rooftop brawls and mid-air stunts to a high-seas showdown where nothing — and nobody — is what they first appear to be. Expect crackling play-by-play, gleeful nitpicks about Golden Age logic, and laugh-out-loud moments as Superman goes detective (and Clark goes full-nosy reporter) while Lois delivers one of the finest takedowns of cowardice in comics history. From a propeller-perched interrogation to a yacht reveal that'll make your jaw drop, Steeven and Ed treat every panel like it's a cliffhanger and then crank the suspense to eleven.If you like your nostalgia with extra punch, conspiracy, and affectionate mockery, this is your jam. Tune in for punches, paranoias, and the satisfying moment when the Unknown X is unmasked — and then stick around for Ed and Steeven's sharp, hyperbolic dissection of how — and why — 1941 comics told their stories with such wild confidence.Enjoy!World’s Finest Comics #2 was published by DC Comics in May of 1941.The Superman Super Show is a production of Steeven Orr Else Media.
