Smallville - Leech

Superman Sunday takes us back to Smallville, Kansas, and the time Clark Kent (Tom Welling) lost his powers. Like the Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman episode “A Bolt from the Blue,” Clark transfers his powers to another person in “Leech.” Unlike the Lois & Clark episode where both characters had powers at the same time, in “Leech” Clark is rendered human with all of his powers transferred to a classmate following a freak lightning strike. Unfortunately for everyone involved, Eric Summers (Shawn Ashmore) isn’t the most stable person to be granted the powers of Superman.

Wonder Woman #7

Wonder Woman #7

I often lament the lack of one-off super-hero stories. Give me a full story in a single issue and I’m happy. Everything these days gets geared to an arc to be easily bound together as a trade paperback with most of those stories, unfortunately, being often stretched beyond its limits. So I celebrate Wonder Woman giving us a fun little one-issue story of Wonder Woman and Superman shopping at a galactic mall for a birthday present for Batman. Sure, it’s it he most bizarre and illogical place ever (in the middle of Wonder Woman’s battle against Sovereign which is mostly ignored), but it’s still a fun read.

Adventures of Superman - The Case of the Talkative Dummy

Superman Sunday takes us back to the 1950s and a strange visitor from another planet who came to Earth with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men. What do a ventriloquist dummy and the theft of armored cars have in common? That’s what Clark Kent (George Reeves) and Lois Lane (Phyllis Coates) investigate. After taking Jim Olson (Jack Larson) out for a treat on his birthday all three employees of The Daily Planet make a connection between a ventriloquist’s dummy talking on its own with the time and location of an armored car robbery.
