This Month In Superman (October)

Because that’s the way the Superman crumbles. Welcome back to This Month in Superman—the show where we break down the best Superman comics on the stands and tell you what actually cooks.This episode: • Superman #31 (Joshua Williamson, art by Eddy Barrows & Eber Ferreira) — a DCKO tie-in that adds character and lore (Apokolips “heart,” Superboy-Prime’s meta sting, strong Lois Lane beats at the Fortress). • Superman: The Kryptonite Spectrum #3 (DC Black Label, by the Ice Cream Man team W. Maxwell Prince, Martín Morazzo, Chris O’Halloran) — Superman de-aged, Shazam team-up, Toyman & Doctor Sivana hijinks, big Batman/Superman trust moment, Silver-Age whimsy with modern heart. • DC K.O. #1 (Scott Snyder & co.) — a surprise: hopeful Superman thrown into a tournament built to crown King Alpha against Darkseid’s King Omega. Wild roster choices, Booster Gold revelations, and the question: Who can actually beat Darkseid?We also talk the James Gunn Superman DNA quietly seeping into current books, Lois & Clark as the ultimate co-op, and why Spectrum reads like “All-Star energy meets Black Label weirdness.”Chapters:00:00 Cold Open – Why these 3 issues cook00:42 Frank’s Pick: Superman #31 (DCKO tie-in that matters)05:28 Lois at the Fortress — reporting vs. Jor-El’s program07:53 Tim’s Pick: Kryptonite Spectrum #3 (kid Clark, Shazam, Toyman/Sivana)10:18 Batman’s “my best guess” — trust/tactics12:45 Black Label primer & Ice Cream Man shout14:33 Vactor’s Pick: DC K.O. #1 (hope vs. King Omega Darkseid)18:35 Can anyone out-scale Darkseid’s power?22:30 Roster talk: Super-Family, Jaro/Starro, Barda, Lobo, Swamp Thing28:03 Booster Gold twist & where this could go31:20 Scott Snyder’s craft pod/Substack (behind-the-scenes)33:50 Beer With Geeks plug + Frank’s Beatles TikTok35:26 Wrap — October’s must-reads & what’s nextListen next / support• ‪@BeerwithGeeks‬ (Tim & Frank): great geek talk on Trek, Star Wars, LOTR, more.• Frank on TikTok —   / frankramblings   elite Beatles micro-docs.• Subscribe for monthly Superman breakdowns + Super-Family highlights.New Comic Book Releases:Oct 1 -Absolute Superman #12Adventures of Superman – The Book of El #2
