This episode explores why superheroes are more than disposable pop culture: they reflect our hopes and anxieties about power, morality, identity, and justice. Zale is joined by Danny Fingeroth, a comic book historian, former Marvel editor, and author of Superman on the Couch and A Marvelous Life. Together, they discuss why flawed heroes like Spider-Man resonate, how superhero stories blur the line between heroism and vigilantism, and what these enduring characters reveal about our search for hope and meaning.
