"We always talked about in doing the stage show how Superman works as a radio serial and it works as a comic book and it works as a movie and an animated series and arguably works as a dark movie," said Acker. Utilizing the strengths of the sequential art medium, Acker and Blacker visualize story elements previously left to the realm of fans' imaginations - say, the robot outlaws from "Sparks Nevada" or ghosts, monsters and other paranormal creatures from "Beyond Belief" - while maintaining the crucial character relationships and whip-smart dialogue that have been the show's trademarks on stage and in podcast form for a decade. The transition from the stage to the printed page has been one a few years in the making for "The Thrilling Adventure Hour." The series' segments were featured in an Eisner-nominated hardcover graphic novel from BOOM! Studios/Archaia Entertainment in 2013, and "issue zero" previews of Image Comics' "Sparks Nevada" and "Beyond Belief" series were released last year.
