Published by Mostly Superheroes Sunday June 29th, 2025
In this episode, we sit down with Morgan Siebert, director of the Super Museum in Metropolis, Illinois, and daughter of the late Jim Hambrick—one of the world’s most renowned Superman collectors.
Morgan shares the story of how her father’s love for Superman became a world-class destination and how she is now stewarding the museum into its next chapter as a nonprofit.
We talk about honoring legacy, collaborating with Warner Bros., connecting with fans through events, and what’s next for the museum and for Superman.
