The Villain of the Story Part 4—Ideologue

Host Anthony Desiato digs into Lex Luthor as an ideologue—philosophically opposed to the existence of Superman—with guest Ralph Puma in the finale to "The Villain of the Story." Anthony and Ralph consider the Lex of Brian Azzarello's MAN OF STEEL, Grant Morrison's ALL STAR SUPERMAN, Zack Snyder's BATMAN V SUPERMAN, and more.

This is the finale of "The Villain of the Story," a multi-part event examining Superman's ultimate opponent, Lex Luthor, across time and media. The podcast is off next week for Independence Day but returns in two weeks (7/12) with an episode on SUPER FRIENDS!

Digging for Kryptonite is a Flat Squirrel Production. Key art by Gregg Schigiel and theme music by Basic Printer.
