SUPERBOY by Kesel & Grummett — HERO OF HAWAII (All-Star Superboy II)
Host Anthony Desiato and guest Bernie Gerstmayr (Aw Yeah Comics - Skokie) dig into Karl Kesel & Tom Grummett's first run on the 90s SUPERBOY solo series. They discuss issues #0-30, which established Superboy's Hawaii setting, supporting cast (Tana Moon, Rex & Roxy Leech, Dubbilex, and Agent Makoa), and rogues gallery (including Knockout, Scavenger, King Shark, Silver Sword, and Sidearm).
PLUS! In a special bonus segment, guest Mike Sangregorio tags in to talk about writer Ron Marz's short tenure on the title, which introduced the Agenda and evil clone Match; escalated, then concluded, the Superboy/Tana/Roxy love triangle; and rendered Superboy unable to age for a time.
The "Reign of Tomorrow" is at hand!
