Authors of "Holding Kryptonite" Join Radio KAL Live! (September 22, 2014)

At 7.30pm PST every Monday night, the Superman Homepage hosts a LIVE one hour "Radio KAL" broadcast for Superman fans to come chat "on air" about the Man of Steel.

In our next show (Monday, September 22) Steve and Michael will be joined by Lauren Agostino and A.L. Newberg, the authors of the new book "Holding Kryptonite".

Look!
Down on the Ground!
It's a Bag. It's some Trash.
It's...It's...What IS that?...

In 1997, a young law firm assistant - Lauren Agostino - literally stumbled on a secret cache from Superman's creators Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. These original documents, private correspondence, legal papers, and artwork expose the muted and maligned history of the relationships and dynamics of the early Superman family.

The origin of Superman and the downfall of its creators Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster is a dramatic saga that underscores one of America's most popular cultural icons. For the first time, Agostino and writer A.L. Newberg reveal the extraordinary true story of the Man of Steel's rise from a creative concept (sold for the infamous $130) to the 1947 lawsuit that nearly denied Siegel and Shuster of any future with their Man of Tomorrow.

Stripped away the lies, myths and cover-ups this is a treasure trove for Superman fans and historians alike.

During the live broadcast you can phone (714) 242-6186 or click on the Skype icon (which will be available at the above link) during the show to be a caller and chat with us live "on air".
