On Tuesday’s Houston Matters: Harris County authorities Monday searched the law offices of Jared Woodfill, a prominent attorney and former chair of the Harris County GOP. Houston Chronicle investigative reporter Lise Olsen explains what the search is about.

Plus: With the death of Marvel Comics writer and publisher Stan Lee on Monday, we revisit Ernie Manouse’s 2015 conversation with him onstage at Comicpalooza.

Also this hour: Long before there was Harvey Weinstein, there was Houston’s native son Howard Hughes. Writer Karina Longworth uses Hughes to illustrate some of the challenges women faced in the Golden Age of Hollywood in her new book, Seduction: Sex, Lies, and Stardom in Howard Hughes's Hollywood.
