The New Adventures of Super Indian is an exciting, thrilling, and brand new three-episode, approximately one-hour each, audio play premiering on April 14th, 21st, and 28th, 2021 as part of the Native Voices at the Autry program at Autry Museum of the American West. Based on Starr’s popular graphic novels, Super Indian, The New Adventures of Super Indian tells the comedic exploits of Super Indian and the residents of the fictional Leaning Oak Tribe Reservation. Hubert Logan, an ordinary reservation boy turned superhero faces off against three of his biggest foes—Wampum Baggs, the ringleader of the Circle of Evil; Blud Kwan’Tum, a cursed vampire determined to become a full-blooded Indian by any means necessary; and Karlie Keane, a scheming social media diva. 

With over 95 characters performed by a handful of Indigenous actors and actress in this three episodic audio play, The New Adventures of Super Indian is the newest artistic creation by Indigenous artist, musician, actor, and playwright, and a renowned comic book writer and artist: Arigon Starr. Also, the production marks the first time ever that Native Voices has premiered a play via audio episodes. Turn in for this one-hour special in discussing a range of topics including Indigenous performative arts, comedy, education, cultural appropriation, Native American presentations, colonialism, plus more, and how they all relate to The New Adventures of Super Indian.

Here is the quotation used for the lyrics below followed by the quotation and chords:
 
“O Lord! Unto Thee I repair for refuge, and toward all Thy signs I set my heart.
O Lord! Whether traveling or at home, and in my occupation or in my work, I place my whole trust in Thee.
Grant me then Thy sufficing help so as to make me independent of all things, O Thou Who art unsurpassed in Thy mercy!
Bestow upon me my portion, O Lord, as Thou pleasest, and cause me to be satisfied with whatsoever Thou hast ordained for me.
Thine is the absolute authority to command.”
- The Bab
