Superman Week: List O' Links for Friday, June 14th, 2013--Superman Edition!


If it's Friday, it must be List O' Links! Being Superman Week, let's keep the theme going with these super links!

Here is the new Man of Steel movie's official site.

A great source for all things Superman is The Superman Homepage, a long running fan site that has tons of great stuff, including articles, images, podcasts, and more!

Here's a fun site devoted specifically to collecting Superman toys and other artifacts.

If you're a devotee of the Christopher Reeve Superman films, Supermania is for you! It's a tribute site for the four Reeve movies with all kinds of interesting facts and images.

Acclaimed comic book writer Mark Waid is an expert on all things Superman. Can you match your Superman kung fu next to his? Give it a try with this tough trivia quiz!

I posted some fun Superman images earlier this week, but Comics Alliance posted some great ones earlier this spring. Take a look!

Superman has a great supporting cast, including his female teenage cousin Kara Zor-EL, aka Supergirl. She has her own fans, such as the author of the Supergirl Comic Box Commentary blog. Check it out!

Finally, it's important to note how Superman's early popularity and influence was created by the classic radio series. You can listen to the very first episode here.

I hope you enjoyed Superman Week. If you see the film, feel free to post a (spoiler-free) review in the comments section of this post. Have a "super" weekend!

so...no SUPERBOY the tv series nor SUPES v. THE MOLEMEN consideration? Did you listen to the radio show much? SUPER PRESIDENT?

No mention of the Superboy show here, but I wrote a synopsis of Superman in visual media a couple years ago in which I give the show a shout-out.

I'd love to see the MOLEMEN film, but sadly it's eluded me all these years.

Ironically, as much as I love superheroes and OTR, I've only heard the first episode and various snippets of other episodes of Supes on the radio. An error I really need to rectify.
