Anthony Desiato

Host Anthony Desiato presents another double feature as the “All-Star Superboy” event draws to an epic conclusion!

Host Anthony Desiato and veteran Superman podcaster Michael Bailey (Fortress of Baileytude) dig into the “Young Justice” event “Sins of Youth” by Peter David & Todd Nauck, in which the team swaps ages with their adult counterparts. Also, they don’t forget that OTHER team Superboy was briefly a part of before Young Justice — “Superboy And The Ravers!”

In this episode of Digging for Kryptonite episode, Anthony Desiato and Zach Moore discuss adaptations of "The Death and Return of Superman" across time and media.

Host Anthony Desiato and Superman historian Ed Gross dig into “Superman Reborn,” the unmade fifth Christopher Reeve film written by Cary Bates and Mark Jones (based on a story by Bates, Jones, and producer Ilya Salkind).

Host Anthony Desiato and guest Bernie Gerstmayr (Aw Yeah Comics—Skokie) discuss the just-released teaser trailer for “Superman,” the July 2025 film from director James Gunn and starring David Corenswet, Rachel Brosnahan, and Nicholas Hoult.

In the final season recap of Superman & Lois, Anthony and Bernie tackle major plot points including Doomsday and Lex Luthor. Stay tuned for more in 2025!

Host Anthony Desiato and guest Nick Farina dig into the 1987 film SUPERMAN IV: THE QUEST FOR PEACE, the oft-maligned and infamously low-budget effort from producer The Cannon Group and director Sidney J. Furie. In Christopher Reeve’s final outing as Superman, our hero seeks to rid the world of its nuclear arsenal and faces opposition from Lex Luthor and his creation, Nuclear Man.

Host Anthony Desiato and guest Zach Moore (Always Hold On To Smallville) dig into the 1983 film SUPERMAN III from director Richard Lester, which featured comedian Richard Pryor as Gus Gorman, brought Christopher Reeve’s Clark back to Smallville for a reunion with Lana Lang (Annette O’Toole), and saw our hero’s good and evil sides battle it out in one of the franchise’s most iconic scenes.

Host Anthony Desiato and guest Dan Greenfield (13th Dimension) dig into the 1980 film SUPERMAN II, a beloved entry in the franchise despite — or perhaps because of? — being the product of two directors’ visions. A combination of original director Richard Donner’s more grounded, earnest approach and replacement Richard Lester’s campier leanings, the movie follows Christopher Reeve’s Superman as he relinquishes his powers to begin a romance with Lois Lane (Margot Kidder)…just as Kryptonian trio of Zod, Non, and Ursa escape the Phantom Zone.
