Host Anthony Desiato and guest Zach Moore (Always Hold On To Smallville) dig into the character of Lex Luthor as portrayed by actor John Shea in Season 1 of LOIS & CLARK: THE NEW ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN, as well as impactful return appearances in the following seasons.
Anthony and Zach discuss the charisma and magnetism Shea imbued in his Lex; the character’s Post-Crisis inspiration, worldview, and tactics; an unlikely, yet believable, romance with Lois; his unhinged but satisfying returns to the show, including as the mastermind of the notorious frog-eating clone arc; and the legacy of the character via his underlings and illegitimate children.
PLUS! In a special epilogue, Anthony welcomes first-time guest Stuart Mulrain (And Why Not? podcast) to shine a spotlight on Lois & Clark’s standout pilot and its adaptation of the Post-Crisis Superman comics by John Byrne and more.
