The Comics Canon


Dec 6, 2023

It’s our bicentennial episode, and we celebrate by going back to 1976 for a momentous match-up between comics’ two most popular characters: Superman vs. The Amazing Spider-Man, by Gerry Conway and Ross Andru, published by DC and Marvel Comics!

This first-ever inter-company crossover event finds the Man of Steel and Ol’ Web-Head going toe-to-toe (of course) before joining forces to combat the combined threat of criminal masterminds Lex Luthor and Doctor Octopus!

Can the Man of Tomorrow and your Friendly Neighborhood Wall-Crawler rescue Lois Lane and Mary Jane Watson and thwart this dastardly duo’s perilous plan? And can our awesome allies win their way into that World’s Finest Two-in-One known as ... The Comics Canon?

In This Episode:

·         Great moments of 1976

·         Curt’s beef with Superman

·         The Flying Octopus!

·         Our shirts are marvelous—a reader says so!

·         Godzilla Minus One

·         Monarch: Legacy of Monsters
