Chris and
Cindy
are joined by Kyle Benning of King-Size
Comics Giant-Size Fun to celebrate the work of prolific comics writer Gerry Conway. First they discuss Gerry’s recent tumbler posts conceringcreator equity, and what it means to him and other comic creators with vested interests in DC characters.
Then
it’s off to examine Conway-penned tales
from Superman
Family #186 and 187. Lois Lane
encounters a mad African dictator with a weapon
powerful enough to bend the will of the Man of Steel! Then, the Superman
of Earth-One and his Earth-Two counterpart must combine forces…and
bodies(!) to defeat the inter-dimensional
monster known only as Krogg, before he destroys
Earth-One!
