Third Rail Sidecar #367: The Animated Series
Manage episode 496833805 series 2798703
While the rest of the Third Rail crew embarks on a disturbing journey of self-discovery through the sultry streets and beaches of Thailand, Spectre welcomes Justiceleaguer aka Hans Hammer to the studio. Together, we take an engaging and scholarly dive into the history of heroic narratives and tragedies rooted in the Aryan folksoul, exploring its representation in mythology and literature from Greek times to modern works, both high and low. We then shift our focus to the early days of comic books and superheroes, examining them with a surprisingly critical lens.
In the first installment of an upcoming anthology of Sidecars, we scrutinize the influence of jews—and even the jewish mafia—on early 20th-century pulp magazines and sci-fi works. We explore how they infiltrated and appropriated the literary expression of Aryan values in the 1940s for their own gains (sound familiar?) and Hans brings the receipts. He exposes the petty, vicious, and often nefarious tactics behind these machinations, from the betrayal of comic book creators and Superman being straight-up copied (they admitted it) to even a mail-based anthrax attack in the 1940s by one of Superman’s creators. Up, up, and away.

Outro Song: (We’re All Gonna Make it) For my Kings by StormKing
