Siskoid and Bass take on Secret Origins Month at the Fire and Water Podcast Network with a tale that might well have fit into the original run of Secret Origins, The Origin of the Golden Age Robotman, from All-Star Squadron #63 (November 1986). Who was the original brain in a metal body? Roy Thomas, Mike Bair and Mike Machlan give all the deets, and Siskoid even went back to look at the original tale by Jerry Siegel for comparison. Every secret revealed!
