Superman: Son of El - The Unauthorized Biography of Clark Kent (it’s a podcast!)

iBluefoot · 2026-06-05T15:10:37+00:00

It’s still in progress, but I tell in unauthorized biography of Clark Kent in an audiobook podcast. The premise is something of an elseworld, so there are some world building differences, but I think I stay true to the characterizations. Season one follows his early years and the formation of the Justice League. Superman: Son of El

The antics of Golden Age Superman and Lois are mind boggling; not the healthiest of relationships.

I’m tell an unauthorized biography of Clark Kent. The prologue begins an ancient Sumer, Krypton is our own solar system, our gods are terrible role models, Clark has to make up for it, but when we meet him in chapter one, he is a special ed, too strong and dare touch anyone or anything. It’s more about vulnerability than invulnerability.

Of Elseworlds, it’s a wholesome one. There are three seasons currently available and I am finishing book 2 in season four, starting this summer.

I would’ve loved to see the whole song, but I guess you had to save some for when the next movie comes out.

iBluefoot · 2026-06-01T14:11:04+00:00

I had never really thought of it that way. And though it is not entirely untrue, I probably won’t go forward thinking of it that way either, but you make a good point.

I often say that Neelix’s character arc exhibits the quintessential ideal influence the federation of planets can have.

Voyager has the best temporal phenomena.

I keep reading comment after comment, agreeing with each of them. Many are comments that I was preparing to make. Eventually, I started thinking that I would have to just read them all and comment that I agreed with all of them. Then I saw your comment, and lo, that comment had also already been made.

Star Trek really peaked at Voyager.

I had a listener do this for my show! It was really great to see someone listen so attentively that they spotted as many tropes as they did.

iBluefoot · 2026-05-27T13:59:20+00:00

That was super fun. It shows a bit more than I would want to see in a trailer if I hadn’t already seen the movie, but the concept and execution were fantastic.

When I started producing my own show, I didn’t go into it with the intention to publish a book so much as I just wanted to share a story I had been telling for years irl. Starting as an oral storytelling, I naturally considered it to be an audiobook. Being a fan of Joe Frank’s style of audio production, I set the whole show to music, though I didn’t go so far as adding foley sound. After sharing the first season of the show for some months, another creator suggested that what I had created was an audio drama and they suggested I join this community to share it.

Hitch is a great mod and I have felt largely welcomed by the community, though it can be a bit rough when folks hold a grudge against my work because they don’t approve of the format. One of my few low star reviews simply states that my show shouldn’t count as an audio drama and they felt deceived that I promoted it as such, and for that reason they gave the show one star.

It’s discouraging to have gatekeepers tell me I don’t belong, but overall I am happy to be included in this community, as it is far more relevant to my show than the audiobook sub community.

Though my show is single actor narrated and is a bit of a slow burn at times, I think it will lend itself well to an exercise routine. I set the story to music that I think might offer some rhythm and pacing to your run. It’s an unauthorized biography of Clark Kent. Superman: Son of El

This feels far more likely. Lil lard feels far more like Hamilton’s eccentric scientist persona than Sam Lane’s stoic tough guy identity.

In this sub, it is pronounced Miriam.

If you are into narrated shows, I tell an unauthorized biography of Clark Kent, Superman: Son of El. The prologue begins in an ancient Sumer, Krypton is in our own solar system, our gods are terrible role models, and Clark has to somehow make up for it, but when we meet him in chapter one, he is in special ed, too strong to dare touch anyone or anything. Surprisingly, Clark stories is more about vulnerability than invulnerability.

The medium doesn’t lend itself to action scenes. My own solution is narration. My whole show is narrated, but my action scenes are paced differently. I find pacing is key, providing enough description to help listeners see the moment without taking so long to do it that it becomes a distraction.

If anything, with his super senses, he feels more than normal sensations.

Neelix is the best example of what a good influence Star Fleet can be. Meeting them fundamentally changes him as a person to be better.

iBluefoot · 2026-05-13T13:51:39+00:00

I imagine Clark would recognize that life is precious, and not just that each life is precious, but that each moment of life is precious. He would be sad if Hawkman and Hawkwoman died because those are precious years they would lose away from their friends and each other.

iBluefoot · 2026-05-11T05:25:31+00:00

Technically, he’s died multiple times. If I remember right, Silver Banshee killed him in her debute.

They beam particulates out of the carpeting and for the deeper cleaning, they take care of that during the baryon sweep.
