Ace Comicals Presents Kurt Busiek and Stuart Immonen's Superman: Secret Identity

Greg and Rahul team up in Leon's absence to discuss the amazing four issue mini series from 2004!

Superman: Secret Identity is the uplifting tale of a boy called Clark Kent in our real world, discovering that he has powers similar to those of his fictional namesake.
We follow him as he tries to do right, live an honest life, make sense of it all, and maintain his secret identity to protect his loved ones! Its a brilliant "what if" tale that explores what it might be like to live with superpowers in our world and the ramifications there of!

Notes:

Rahul makes reference to a Slashfilm podcast where they discuss Batman Vs Superman: Dawn Of Justice which we have linked for you here!

Hosted by Greg Driver, Ace Comicals is a fortnightly conversation that digs into the vast, colourful world of sequential art. Alongside co-hosts Leon and Rahul, Greg explores everything from mainstream monthly issues and graphic novels to the more obscure corners of the medium-think newspaper strips, film adaptations, and even those spontaneous stories doodled on napkins. The discussion is driven by a genuine enthusiasm for how art and text combine to tell stories, offering insights that are as thoughtful as they are passionate. This isn't a dry critique; it's the sound of friends dissecting what they love, with all the tangents and deep dives that come naturally. The entire podcast benefits from the distinctive visual flair of artist Anthony Smith, who provides the logos and artwork. Whether you're a lifelong collector or just curious about the form, each episode feels like pulling up a chair at a lively chat where the only rule is a shared appreciation for the craft. You'll come away with new perspectives on familiar works and a list of titles you might have otherwise missed.
