Host Anthony Desiato presents a very special coda to the podcast’s recent coverage of the 1988-1992 “Superboy” television series: a rare interview with Season 1 star John Haymes Newton!
John discusses his experience with comic books, booking the role, cast camaraderie, the show’s improvement over that first year, leaving the show, and much more.
PLUS: Hear more of Anthony’s conversation with the Superboy Beyond duo of Tom Gallagher and Chris Jacobsen as they talk about the Superboy fandom, address comparisons to “Smallville” and “Lois & Clark,” and ponder the question: “Whatever Happened to the Clark Kent of Capitol City?”
“A Superboy Fan Journey” Chapter XII.
