I may be on my own here, but does anyone else think Doomsday's origin in this show is more interesting than the comics? I love the whole Son of Zod/Science Experiment/Clark's Sorta Step-Brother/Tragic figure thing. Sam Witwer's performance has been solid and sad to watch as this loyal and likable guy slowly realizes he's an alien monster.  And I'm still blown away that we're getting a se...

I usually take a wait and see stance on stuff like this and I get annoyed with fanboy tantrums in general but fucking hell. I don't like this. I don't like it all. This could be my first fanboy tantrum. Someone needs to talk me off the ledge.

This really has been a suprisingly great season. I posted a comment in last week's thread way after everyone had moved on, but to paraphrase...  Can we all just reflect on this episode for a moment? In one hour of prime time television we saw/heard about the following: General Zod The Phatom Zone Brainiac Doomsday The Green Arrow Kandor (yes! Kandor!) Supergirl  But beyond all the...

Can we all just reflect on this episode for a moment? In one hour of prime time television we saw/heard about the following: General Zod The Phatom Zone Brainiac Doomsday The Green Arrow Kandor (yes! Kandor!) Supergirl We live in amazing times, Superman fans. Amazing times.

Great review Josh! You know, I would never advance a theory like this anywhere but here. But with how awful things are getting I think it's a crucial time for stories like this to be told. It gives me hope. That's the whole point of Superman of course. But this feels somehow different at this particular point in history. I just know that things are gonna get better in the world. Why? Becaus...

Quick question.... I've been meaning to get Man of Steel for ages but I'm a bit put off by 5 volumes. How essential are all 5 trades?

Due to this podcast, I immediately went to eBay and bought the issue. Thanks for the heads up, Josh and keep up the good work.

Michael Trucco (Sam Anders on Battlestar Galactica). I've posted it before on this site, but since the topic's come up again...  

I had the strangest experience with that book... I read it and sure... I got misty when he was psi-sending his life story to his closest friends. And the Batman thing at the end just killed me. But I was telling my girlfriend about the book a few days after reading it and when I got to then end, describing Batman putting the cookie on the casket this total devastating wave of emotion ran throug...

The ultimate toy of all time was the tri-level Death Star playset. I renacted the second act of A New Hope so many times. The thought of the working elevator and the foam rubber trash in the trash compactor (included a dianoga!) always brings a smile. Sometimes I gawk at the pictures on Ebay, but somehow I think if I plunked down and owned it again, the magic would be more real and thereby less...
