Ascot Smith is an award-winning creator who specializes in writing interactive virtual reality content. His work is all about crafting customized experiences based on his audience’s choices…which makes him a PERFECT guy to chat with about Zack Snyder, and the various…bold choices… the director made when adapting the Superman mythology to 2013’s MAN OF STEEL.
Yep. We’re going there.
Steven T. Seagle is a legendary creator who needs no introduction…but I’m gonna give him one anyway.
In addition to his epic runs on books like Alpha Flight, House of Secrets, Sandman Mystery Theater, Superman, and Uncanny X-Men, Steve is also the co-creator of both Big Hero Six, and—along with his partners at Man Of Action–Ben 10.
Seagle joins Eric in the studio this episode to discuss his groundbreaking work, IT’S A BIRD…, a semi-autobiographical graphic novel that chronicles his real-life reluctance to take a gig writing The Man Of Steel.

It’s the craziest–allegedly true– book in the entire world, and the boys are gonna tell you all about it on this episode of Super Friends presented by Meltdown Comics!
