Digging for Kryptonite: A Superman Fan Journey

01/01/2026

🥂 HAPPY NEW YEAR! 🎆 If you’re looking for a Superman comic to ring in the new year with, you can’t do any better than this Joe Kelly-written classic, 2003’s “Walking Midnight” from Action Comics #810. Getting to talk with Joe about this very issue was certainly of my podcasting highlights this past year. Big stuff to come in the year ahead. Thank you all as always!

🎄 MERRY CHRISTMAS & Happy Holidays to the entire DFK community! Going to (try to) unplug for a bit while the podcast is on hiatus, so it will be fairly quiet around here for the next couple of weeks. I hope you all have a wonderful holiday.

Catch up on any episodes you missed, and stay tuned for DFK’s return in mid-January! We’re going to hit the ground running with our epic Brainiac trilogy, followed by a run of 🔥 standalone eps, before we segue into our sprawling Supergirl coverage. Can’t wait to get back at it! 🚀

📰 One more for the road! On our last Beyond Metropolis of 2025, Tim Bruns joins me to discuss DC’s 2009 publishing initiative known as WEDNESDAY COMICS, a 12-issue anthology published in oversized, broadsheet format (a la old-school Sunday newspaper comics sections).

We share our experiences with the event, then count down our top 5 (of 15) strips, which starred Superman, Supergirl, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, Flash, Adam Strange, Deadman, Kamandi, and more.

Do YOU read Wednesday Comics back in the day or in the intervening years, and if so, what were YOUR favorite strips?

BEHOLD a visual representation of my LOIS & CLARK Top 10 list as discussed this week! For full explanations — and to hear how my list compared with ’s — be sure to 🎧.

Like I said, I wanted to make sure that all eras of the series were represented and to show some love to the underrated (IMO) Season 4.

And before people come at me for leaving out the pilot 😆, again, I consider that in its own category & certainly don’t dispute its greatness!

🚀 The LOIS & CLARK TV Mixtapes conclude with — what else? — a countdown of the Top 10 episodes of the entire series! For our last stop in 90s Metropolis, I teamed up with fellow podcasters Molly, Julie, & Jenn of , and we definitely surprised each other!

No list spoilers, but let’s just say I wanted to represent a cross-section of the entire series, 🐸-eating clones & all. 😆

Did YOUR fave L&C episodes make the cut? Listen, enjoy, tell us why our lists are wrong 😉, and then be sure to share YOUR Top 10!

That’s a WRAP on our L&C event and DFK’s 2025 coverage. Thank you ALL & Happy Holidays! 🎄

☄️ “Krypton didn’t die in a day. The gods are not that kind.” That line, heard in yesterday’s SUPERGIRL teaser trailer, comes straight out of WOMAN OF TOMORROW, the 8-issue comic book miniseries the film is adapting.

As discussed last night, a dedicated episode on WoT is coming your way relatively early in the new year, so lots more to say about the movie’s source material when the time comes.

But for now, we talked about the choice to adapt that specific work, what we’re seeing from the comic in the teaser, and our predictions & questions as to how the full work will be tackled.

Have you 🎧 to our “emergency” reaction ep yet? Cue it up as you head into the weekend!
