All six of Dirk Maggs’ Comic book adaptations were recently Uploaded to archive.org in FLAC format by a wonderful person known as CosmicSnail. Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you!

They were ‘one track per disc’ files so I’ve made audiobook versions, with twenty-something minute long chapters for easier navigation. Where present, I removed “to be continued” announcements so the story plays uninterrupted.

The stories are pretty self-contained so can be listened to in any order.

Can he justify his continued interference in world affairs? Do we know the truth about his powers? Can Lois Lane defend ‘50 years of the Man of Steel’?

Packed with spectacular sound effects and a thrilling orchestral score, mixed in cinematic Dolby Surround, this specially-extended and unedited recording can now be heard as writer/producer Dirk Maggs originally intended.

Guest appearances include Adam West (TV’s Batman), Jenette Kahn (President, DC Comics) and Dave Gibbons (DC Comics artist/Co-creator, “Watchmen”).
