It's a bird … it's an airplane … no, it is a lively ghost poison Pokémon with a huge tongue!
On Thursday, DC Comics announced a brand new adaptation of the beloved comic All-star SupermanBut with a turn: It is a fully occupied audio book that is listed by the productive voiceover artist Marc Thompson as a man made of steel. Thompson has so many credits in his name, from the story of Star Wars' Thrawn audio books to the edition of a lot of anime characters – including Gengar Pokémon trips. Could this version of Superman also grunt and grunt if it thinks about his sad existence?
In addition to the vote of Superman, Thompson will also speak Zarro, the highly intelligent version of Bizarro. With the leading role, Kristen Sieh as Lois Lane, Christopher Smith as Lex Luthor, Brandon Mcinnis as Jimmy Olsen and Ray Porter as Jor-El. The full line -up is 25 actors deep, and DC says that the recording will also have an original score and sound effects.
Grant Morrison and Frank Quenty's All-star Superman Is the stuff of the legends – James Gunn quotes it under his inspiration for the upcoming Superhuman Feature film that is a high bar to raise yourself. The audio book adapted by Meghan Fitzmartin will directly adapt the entire 12-IS run of the original comic and press psychological history even further into the minds of his characters.
“I have been a fan of All-Star Superman since his first release 20 years ago and we are thrilled to work with DC to adapt Morrison and Quitles extraordinary vision in a fresh way that is unique for the audio book,” says Lance Fitzgerald, DCS SVP, content and business development, in a press release. “In her adapted audio script, Meghan Fitzmartin takes listeners in the heads of the characters, including their inner thoughts. We hear Zibarro wrestling about his world and mortality with his uniqueness, Lex Luthors and Superman's own considerations.”
The audiobook version of All-star Superman arrives on June 24th.
