FCTC Classic Episode 1 – Man of Steel Issues 1 & 2

Welcome to From Crisis to Crisis Classic! Because of the original feed getting lost due to financial considerations I (Michael) decided to start representing them on this feed to give them a new home since people still seem to be finding them.

Note before listening…check out the original release date below if you hear something that sounds kind of off or doesn’t align with the social norms of today. Or if the audio quality isn’t up to snuff of what you’d hear from this show today. These epsiodes are represented as they were first released. No editing. No George Lucas style revamps. I’m doing this mainly because I want to retain the original feel of the episodes and also because…well, I’m lazy.

Episode 1 – Man of Steel issues one and two

Original Release Date – May 12, 2009

This is the one that launched the whole thing. Fun fact, Jeff and I had never actually spoken until we recorded this episode. I was only two years into my podcasting career, so I was still finding my voice and Jeff hadn’t quite figured out his audio, which is why he sounds like he does.

Original Show Notes

This week your hosts, Michael Bailey and Jeffrey Taylor, kick things off with the mini-series that started the Crisis to Crisis era.  After a little bit of background info on the creation of the series Jeff and Mike get into the nitty gritty and explore the first two issues of the series.  Experience or re-experience the final days of the Post Crisis Krypton, how the Kents found the baby Clark Kent, Clark beginning to discover his origins, Superman’s first appearance, the first meeting with Lois Lane, Superman’s first days in Metropolis and how Clark got the job at the Daily Planet.

Part index. Part commentary. Part history lesson. All podcast.
