We're going back to issue 1. The HD podcast went through a Crisis, and now it's gone into a Rebirth. We wanted to make more regular content, and know the New Gods have given us their blessings to bring you new weekly episodes focusing film, tv and comic books. We'll try stick to it a little better this time...  Darkseid is. 

Dav and Eammon unpack their initial thoughts on Avengers: Endgame! The first few minutes are spoiler free - but after that, please don't listen to the episode if you haven't seen it! ALSO, apologies for the sound quality, that's what happen when we record in a bar...

Eammon's joined by Screen Queens host and Little White Lies writer, Millicent Thomas, to review Captain Marvel. Don't worry, there aren't any spoilers here. (Except for the fact that Carol Danvers is going to punch Thanos' nutsack chin off his face, of course).

Dav and Eammon kick off a new segment where they reset classic movies and cast new actors + tell new stories. First up: Starship Troopers. Yes, it's like Damage Control. No, we're not sorry about it.

Dav and Eammon (finally) give their audible verdicts on Aquaman and Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. Guess which one they preferred?

WE ARE Heroes Direct. Obviously. This week, Eammon and Joseph review Venom, spoilers; they're really not keen. Also: James Gunn's move to DC, Daredevil Season 3 and those Brie Larson MCU contract rumours.

On the latest episode of Damage Control, Eammon is joined by another of the HD writing team, Millicent Thomas, as they tackle the most recent X-Men film featuring the whole team; Apocalypse.

Jon Schnepp has sadly passed away - Dav talks about one of his heroes.

We've talked about tackling Man of Steel for quite some time, and here it is. We attempt to come up with ways of fixing the notorious Superman reboot...

Eammon is joined by Joseph Kime this week as they tackle a largely forgotten piece of Marvel film history... Ghost Rider.

In brightest day, in blackest night, no terrible comic book film shall escape our sight. That means you too, Ryan Reynolds era Hal Jordan.

If we're talking terrible comic book movies, this one is in dire need of fixing. That's right, we're tackling Josh Trank's infamous Fant4stic reboot from 2015.

That's right, Damage Control is back again - this time we're looking at the DC side of things. With all the 'Ice' puns you can shake a stick at, we're fixing Joel Schumacher's campy, hyper-'90s take on Gotham City.

It's the premiere episode of Damage Control! We take on Brett Ratner (BOO.) and his terrible ending to the original X-Men trilogy. We're fixing this mess. Let us know what you think on Twitter, @HeroesDirect!

SPOILERS AHEAD. Don't listen and then complain we spoilt it for you, because this is Avengers: Infinity War, and we're going in.

We travel to Wakanda in Black Panther's solo film after his introduction in Captain America: Civil War; cue Letitia Wright, racially insensitive comic book origins and the giant monsters from Rampage? Hmmm.

Thanos is finally here, but before we go in depth with our thoughts next week, we've got a spoiler free episode for you with our thoughts as a whole on the most ambitious film in the MCU. Thanos demands your silence.

It's time to Ragnarok'n'Roll. It might be the week of Infinity War, but we're giving it some time so everyone has time to see it! This time Dav, Eammon and Matt look at the film that redeemed the Asgardian God of Thunder after 'The Dark World'.

Peter Parker is finally back home in the MCU, and with his solo film we get a proper take on your friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man. ALSO, we talk about the future of the Spider-Man role... We're looking at you, Miles Morales.

We're back in the cosmic side of the MCU as Star-Lord deals with some daddy issues. Remember, tweet us @HeroesDirect or call in your thoughts using the Anchor app!

PART 2 - We're back again continuing our Doctor Strange episode with more of our thoughts on the Sorcerer Supreme after we were rudely interrupted last week! Also we discuss a little bit about the Fantastic Four and Galactus.

We go to the mystic side of the MCU as Doctor Strange makes his way to the screen. We were a little short on time and we have plenty more Doctor Strange content coming very soon!

Dav + Eammon are on opposite sides this week as they're joined by Matty Stark once again to talk about the monumental Captain America: Civil War. Team Cap v Team Iron Man. Whose side are you on?

It's all about the little things this week as Dav + Eammon get the magnifying glass out on Paul Rudd as Ant-Man.

We've got an extra long episode for you this week because Dav & Eammon are joined by Matty Stark once again - and we needed more time to discuss our thoughts on Age of Ultron...

We blast into the cosmic side of the MCU with James Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy.

Oh boy, this might just be one of the best films in the MCU. It's time we talk about Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Oh, Bucky.

This week, we look at Thor: The Dark Exposition. Because everyone explains EVERYTHING. It's terrible. Join us, as we roast Thor: The Dark World.

We discuss Iron Man 3, as well as ranting about THAT Mandarin twist. It’s an angry one. Sorry Kevin Feige.

We’ve reached the end of phase 1... it’s time for The Avengers. Or you know, Avengers Assemble as it’s known in the UK.

We take a look at the first film in the Captain America trilogy: The First Avenger.

We tackle the introduction of Thor, Loki, Odin and the Warriors into the MCU!

The sequel to the 2008 Iron Man film doubles down on what worked the first time around; men in suits brawling. It's robot punch up time on Countdown To Infinity #3!

We go back to 2008 with The Incredible Hulk.

Our first episode as we count down to Avengers: Infinity War, we see where it all began back in 2008 with Iron Man.

We’ve got a brand new podcast coming your way.
