Thanks to my co-host Rob Kelly, Sea King of THE AQUAMAN SHRINE, for doing all the post-production on this episode! Special thanks to Daniel Adams and Ashton Burge with their band The Bad Mamma Jammas for our fantastic Who’s Who theme song!
One of the coolest aspects of each Who’s Who issue was the amazing wrap-around cover! Check out this exceptional cover by Ty Temploton! However, one important question… where are Ed and Felicity Raymond?!?! Click the image to enlarge.
Here are your Firestorm-related Who’s Who entries from this issue…
First up is the Zuggernaut by Joe Brozowski and Sam De La Rosa. Sigh… yes, the Zuggernaut. Conceptually a neat villain, in practice, pretty much a punch line for Firestorm jokes. He first appeared in Firestorm the Nuclear Man #69 and was last seen (thankfully) in Firestorm the Nuclear Man #73. Considering The Flash TV series has borrowed so many Firestorm villains already, I kinda expect the Zuggernaut to show up some day. Then we’ll know the show has officially “Jumped the Shark”. Click to enlarge.
Next up is Ed and Felicity Raymond by Joe Brozowski and Sam De La Rosa. Ed is Ronnie Raymond’s father; Felicity is Ronnie’s step-mother. More importantly, Felicity’s prior name was Felicity Smoak! Yes, THAT Felicity Smoak! Did you know your favorite Arrow hottie started off as Firestorm’s step-mom?!? And listen to this episode to hear Rob take this drawing out behind the woodshed and beat it thoroughly. Click to enlarge.

Here are your Firestorm-related Who’s Who entries from this issue…
First up is the teenage Soviet super-team, Soyuz by Joe Brozowki and Sam De La Rosa. Soyuz lived in the Soviet Union and were supporting characters during the “Blank Slate” period of Firestorm. Firebird was the niece of Mikhail Arkadin (one part of Firestorm). Click to enlarge.
Next up is the Firestorm foe, Stalnoivolk (Steel Wolf) by Joe Brozowki and Sam De La Rosa. Steel Wolf was essentially a Soviet Super Soldier. Similar to Captain America in his physical abilities and his patriotism for his country. He first appeared in Fury of Firestorm #67 and eventually went on to work with the Suicide Squad.
