Geekscape 660: The Storytellers of 'Selling Superman'!

from Geekscape · host Geekscape

"There is a 40-year hidden family secret that only a few people knew about. Darren’s father had Asperger’s (ASD) and it led him to collect comic books in a genius yet obsessive way that overtook the home, destroyed the family, and caused everyone great mental trauma. Now, after his father’s passing, Darren is left with a holy grail collection of over 300,000 comic books - including the prized possession of his father: Superman #1 (7.0) valued at over $3.5 million - making it one of the most valuable comic books of all time. Darren is faced with this final adventure of Selling Superman, of picking up the pieces of his childhood, rewriting a family legacy, and discovering the heroic power of choosing what we give meaning to." This is the synopsis for 'Selling Superman', a new documentary film currently in production. Join me, filmmaker Adam Schomer and family member Darren Watts as we talk about this incredible story and the making of the film 'Selling Superman'.
