Podcast - Episode 155: Superman and Batman movies

Since there were a couple of news items this past week relating to Superman and Batman movies, we decided to look back at all previous Superman and Batman movies.

I have to make a correction, too. Probably several, but the one I can remember is that I said that the Starfire character on Titans is a prostitute but I don’t think she actually is. I had just heard that, but I can’t find verification anywhere. I can’t find anything that says otherwise, either, but let’s assume that she is not actually a prostitute. Not that there is anything wrong with being a sex worker of any kind, but comic book-based entertainment has a long history of not depicting sex workers in the most…sensitive and respectful light. Anyway, the show still looks very bad.

Here is Michael Kupperman’s Dick Crazy comic, for your enjoyment:

See you next week!

We saw Ant-Man and The Wasp! Don't listen to this episode if you don't want to be SPOILED!

And, of course, you want to see the Punisher balloon that local comic fan/magician Mr J made for Garth Ennis:

See you in two weeks for Hellboy Omnibus vol. 1! I'm going on vacation!!!!

Podcast - Episode 131: Dream Casting the New Gods Movie

There's gonna be a New Gods movie (probably)!

Dave has drafted an extensive list of actors he would like to see play his beloved Fourth World characters. I think it's pretty solid.

If you want a quick intro to the New Gods, we recommend watching this three-minute clip from the Superman animated series:

If you want to watch a very awkward, but also very sexy, interview with Sebastian Stan from the set of Infinity War, you can check this out:

My boy can fill out a t-shirt.

And speaking of which, this is the photo I showed Hillary of artist Jorge Jimenez. She did not believe he is a comic book artist, and I can't blame her:

I mean...how? What?!

Anyway, I would totally be down to finish his roughs or whatever.

See you next week!

Podcast - Episode 129: Black Panther

Guys! Black Panther was SO. GOOD.

We have lots of thoughts. And Dave sits down with Leslie Amegavie, a die-hard Black Panther fan who emigrated to Nova Scotia from Ghana, who has even more thoughts! Leslie saw the movie four times during opening weekend, so he's pretty pumped about it.

The movie was seriously so good. I basically never want to hear anyone speak ever again who doesn't have some sort of African accent.

I can't wait to see it again. In particular, I can't wait to see my new king, M'Baku again.

Mmmmmmm'Baku.

Good job, everyone. You made a great movie.

Oh, and yes. I lost my damn mind at that end credits scene. Of course I did.

This week we are talking about the positive influence that fictional super heroes have had on our lives. 

But first, we are getting in a fight about the Ant-Man and Wasp trailer.

 

You wanna see what made Sebastian Stan laugh? It's this!

He's probably still laughing about it. And obsessing over the witty angel who gifted him with such a delightful joke.
