In Soviet Russia, Superman reads YOU! This week we delve into esleworld superman’s communist utopia with “Superman: Red Son.” Written by Mark Millar and drawn by four artist comrades, this “what if” tweaks just one minor detail of Superman’s origin story: he lands in Soviet Russia instead of post-WWII America. Also, some of the best costume design art we’ve ever seen. For more information on past and upcoming episodes, visit www.AtomicPoweredSuperCast.com.
I’m pretty sure I can safely say that “Batman: Odyssey” is by far the wackiest, most insane comic we’ve read in a long, long time. Written and drawn by one-man-band Neal Adams, “Odyssey” just has to be can’t be explained in a tidy little summary.

This week we take a break from cracking the books and finish up our Dwayne McDuffie series with what he’s probably best known for: animated television. We watch a couple time travel episodes titled “The Once and Future Thing,” both written and produced by McDuffie. We also wrap up our discussion on the man’s influence in the popular perception of superheroes today.
