Superheroes are back, baby! You will believe a man can fly — but did you know that such things were happening in the decades before Siegel and Schuster created Kal-El in 1938? Joshua Glenn, editor of Before Superman: Superhumans of the Radium Age and overall series editor of MIT Press's Radium Age Science Fiction series, stops by to tell Drew about the Radium Age of SF and discovering all these proto-supermen (and women!) for this new collection.
Then, Diana Arterian drops in to chat about The Annotated Nightstand and gets some of Drew's TBR out of him. Also, they come up with a great idea for a holiday stream that interested parties should definitely tell Drew they're excited by. And finally, a call from fellow bookseller and novelist Mo Daviau (author of Epic and Lovely, out next week!) about a particular bookselling challenge...
Oh, also, a shout-out to Andrew Kaufman's Enjoy Your Stay at the Shamrock Motel!
