If our weekly Ask Chris column isn't enough of definitive comic book (and pro wrestling) opinions for you, good news: ComicsAlliance is proud to present Here's The Thing, a series of videos where you can join our own extremely opinionated senior writer, Chris Sims, as he dives into comics history to explain why you're wrong and he's right.

This week, Chris has a very serious discussion about Superman's hair. No, really: You will believe a man's coif can provide a strong visual signifier of his character and can make another, slightly more volatile man hate a movie six months before it comes out.

Show Notes:

  • Chris's review of Man of Steel. He will never not be mad about this stupid, stupid movie.
  • Visuals for this week's episode courtesy of a 1975 Power Records Superman LP, featuring "The Mxyzptlk Mix-Up."
  • Further discussion about costume design can be found in Ask Chris #194.
