On this episode Matt and returning special guest co-host David Walton ignore the fact that there is no cover enhancement to be found (thereby calling into question the entire premise of the podcast) and discuss 1991's ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN #474.
Set on New Year's Eve, this issue is a really moving character study of Clark Kent and a perfect encapsulation as to why the "Triangle Era" of Superman is a favorite for both Matt and David.
Even though he had very little time to prepare prior to recording, David shares some genuinely insightful thoughts on Clark Kent's emotional journey in this issue and how it mirrors what Superman went through during the "Exile" epic.
Matt, who had all the time in the world to prepare for the show, gets nostalgic about Casey Kasem's Nick-at-Nite New Year's Eve countdown, takes some cheap shots at John Byrne, and repeatedly talks about Galactus wearing a diaper.
Happy New Year!

If it weren't for the generous help from Doug Wortel (GET WELL SOON!) and Spillway Sound you wouldn't be listening to this podcast at all!
