PODCASTING

 

Superhuman Public Radio captures the feeling of turning on NPR on a long drive. The news, a bit of this American Life, and then on to Car Talk.  Only you “tune” into SPR, you learn that Homeland Security has issued an alert for Alien Doppelgängers stealing people's identities. Then, on These American Supers, a reporter tries out the new app HENCH, which gives freelancers the opportunity to work for Supervillains for a day. Finally, on the Utility Belt, the hosts help a hero fix his grapple gun as he hangs 40 stories up the side of a building. 

It’s a parody of podcasting and a love letter to comic books all in one. These are the stories between the panels. What happens after the punching is done and the hero flies away.
