This week on The Legends of the DCU Podcast! Drew Leiter and Cletus Jacobs are visited by the Kindly Ones as we dive into another review of The Sandman. Superman’s partnership with Supercorp collapses when Mercy Graves betrays him by weaponizing his symbol, unleashing Kryptonite-powered attacks, and revealing a super-powered new Lex Luthor clone in Superman #24. Superman and Superwoman battle X-El—a Superman-powered Lex Luthor clone unleashed by Mercy Graves—while the reformed Lex returns to help stop the chaos, forcing everyone to confront what the “real” Lex Luthor truly is in Superman #25. After the fallout of Project X-El and Mercy Graves’ betrayal, a Red Kryptonite infection amplifies Superman’s anger into a dangerous new threat, forcing his allies—especially Lois Lane—to protect Metropolis from the Man of Steel himself in Superman #26 & 27. Superman uncovers Darkseid’s corrupted Legion, travels to the future to find the missing Legion of Super-Heroes and Booster Gold, and then races back to the present to warn the Justice League as Darkseid’s forces prepare for a major confrontation in Superman #28 – 30. All this plus, DC News, Shout Outs, and much, much more!
