[Superman Fan Club]

Welcome to the Superman Fan Club!

The first Wednesday of every month we host the Adventures of Superman radio show Listen Along.

We also have a virtual Clubhouse (a group message) where we discuss “live” any Superman news or other discussions!

Click here to enlist!!! Superman fan club - DC Community
(and get an awesome Superman Flair!)

Our initial fun is digging into the Silver Age and Bronze Age wonder of Action Comics and Superman Comics, where so much of the “mythology” of the Superman world was built, along with listening the Superman 1940’s Radio show together!
