Episode #9: Two Fans (When We Last Left Our Heroes)

Over the last 8 weeks, this series has covered a range of ideas and stories, from the death of Superman to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Umapagan Ampikaipakan has spoken to Scott McCloud and Marc DiPaolo and Arnold T. Blumberg. He’s asked Jon Morris about all those superheroes long lost and forgotten. He’s told you the story of how Superman - with the help of Stetson Kennedy - defeated the Ku Klux Klan. He's waxed on about his man-crush on Alan Moore. Today, on the show, Uma is stepping away from the experts, from the professors and the wonks. Today, he’s speaking to two comic book fans. Individuals who grew up entertained and inspired by the art form. Individuals whose lives and careers have been indelibly influenced by the superhero comic.
