Kaminski's entry into comics was inspired by classic series and publications, shaping his understanding of the comic creation process at an early age. The Superman editorial philosophy combines elements from various iconic eras, emphasizing a vision inspired by the 90s Animated Series and Fleischer cartoons. A unified visual style for the Super Family has been implemented, with distinct designs to maintain Superman's uniqueness within the group. Current Superman publishing strategy includes three core titles, each catering to different narratives, with significant arcs like Action #1100 planned for fall 2026. The Legion of Darkseid storyline is a pivotal upcoming focus across Superman issues, essential for the future of DC Comics. Kaminski champions Atomic Skull as an underutilized villain, highlighting previous successful narratives like Phil Jimenez's Superwoman work. Plans for Zod storylines are in development, with original concepts influenced by sci-fi classics like Star Trek II: Wrath of Khan. He advises artists to specialize in genres and network at conventions, while encouraging writers to start with smaller companies or licensed comics. Kaminski addresses misconceptions about creators' intentions, advocating for fans to read comics with an open mind regarding character developments.   Notes ‍️ Paul Kaminski's Background and Role (01:50 - 11:15) Paul Kaminski serves as Group Editor for Metropolis Group at DC Comics, overseeing Superman titles, Green Lantern, Aquaman, Flash, Green Arrow, and Justice League. DC Comics currently operates three editorial groups: Metropolis Group, Gotham Group, and newly formed Themyscira Group led by Brittany Holzer. Kaminski has 17 years of experience in comics industry, starting at Archie Comics and working on Sonic the Hedgehog before joining DC in 2015. Getting Into Comics and Career Development (03:09 - 12:31) Kaminski's entry into comics began with X-Men animated series at age 7-8, followed by purchasing Wolverine #76 and Death of Superman trade paperback. Pizza Hut X-Men video featuring Bob Harris, Fabian Nicieza, and Scott Lobdell was formative in understanding comic creation process. Early editorial experience involved learning hands-on approach vs. hands-off approach to editing, with first major lesson being 'editing is not writing the comic yourself.' ‍️ Superman Editorial Philosophy and Approach (19:23 - 20:46) Kaminski's Superman vision draws from 90s Animated Series, combining elements of Fleischer cartoons, George Reeves TV show, and Triangle Era comics. Hired Joshua Williamson as writer for Superman relaunch based on their successful collaboration on Dark Crisis. Selected Jamal Campbell as artist after being impressed by his work on Naomi, particularly Superman fight scene. Super Family Organization and Visual Identity (32:03 - 32:03) Implemented unified visual style for Super Family with matching jackets designed by Dan Mora, inspired by Jim Lee's X-Men era. Action Comics #1051 cover serves as mission statement for organized Super Family approach. Superman intentionally remains only cape-wearing member to maintain visual distinction within the family. Current and Future Superman Publishing Strategy (13:51 - 40:27) Three core Superman titles serve different purposes: Superman (future/All-In storylines), Superman Unlimited (present-day Kryptonite kingdom stories), Action Comics (past/Superboy canonical stories). Action #1100 is being planned for fall 2026 with major story arc. Legion of Darkseid storyline spans Superman issues #28-30 as crucial future DC direction. ‍️ Character Development and Villain Preferences (36:00 - 39:04) Strong advocacy for Atomic Skull as underutilized villain, praising Phil Jimenez's rehabilitation storyline in Superwoman. Plans brewing for Zod storylines with hints being dropped across current issues. 'Kneel Before Zod' book was originally inspired by Star Trek II: Wrath of Khan approach, even approaching director Nick Meyer to write it. Industry Advice and Misconceptions (16:39 - 43:08) For artists: Focus on specific genre specialization and build community networks through conventions and local studios. For writers: Target small companies first, pursue licensed comics as entry point, especially Star Trek. Biggest fan misconception: Creators aren't intentionally trying to destroy favorite characters - encourages reading comics 'in good faith.'

Things get gloriously weird as we dive into "Wedding Bell Blues," the second episode of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 3. After a three-month time jump, the Enterprise is docked at Starbase One for the Federation's 100th anniversary, but Spock has something more personal on his mind: the return of Nurse Chapel. Unfortunately for him, she's not alone. Enter Chapel's date, Dr. Roger Korby, her old mentor, and the unfortunate spark for Spock's emotional tailspin. What begins as an awkward love triangle quickly warps into a full-blown rom-com fever dream. Spock wakes up engaged to Chapel, the crew is prepping for a wedding instead of a centennial celebration, and reality itself seems to be playing fast and loose with the facts. While some members of the crew are blissfully swept up in the festivities, others start to sense something is very, very off--especially a confused and suspicious Dr. Korby. We'll dig into the emotional core of the episode, including Ethan Peck's fantastic performance as a Vulcan barely holding himself together, and how Strange New Worlds continues to blend genres without losing its heart. Director Jordon Canning, who brought us last season's rom-com "Charades," once again balances comedy, sci-fi, and surprising depth in a story that explores how emotions shape our reality.

After almost two full years, Strange New Worlds is finally back and we're jumping straight into the action with the highly anticipated Season 3 premiere, “Hegemony, Part 2.” This week, we're breaking it all down in real time, just hours after the episode drops. Pike and the Enterprise crew are back and there's no easing back into this one. We'll be digging into all the fallout from last season's cliffhanger, exploring how the show handled the return to the Gorn conflict and whether the emotional stakes lived up to the build-up. Did Pike make the right call? Was the rescue worth the cost? And what does this episode signal for the rest of the season? We've definitely got thoughts. Of course, it wouldn't be Trek Geeks without some hot takes, speculation, and your live comments fueling the chaos. This is a *spoiler-filled* discussion, so if you haven't seen the episode yet, maybe warp out and come back after. But if you have watched, grab a drink, fire up the viewscreen, and join us as we kick off another season of SNW with the passion only Trek Geeks can deliver.

This one-off episode brings back a character who never made their way into X-Men: Evolution, the Silver Samurai.

The Superhero Show Show #597Spider-Man Enters the Secret WarsThe Superhero Show Show: Spider-Man Enters the Secret WarsThis week on The Superhero Show Show, the hosts swing into one of the most ambitious arcs of Spider-Man: The Animated Series—Secret Wars, Chapter 1: Arrival. Right from the start, the stakes skyrocket as Spider-Man is whisked away from New York to an alien world. There, the all-powerful Beyonder handpicks him to lead a team of Earth's heroes against a deadly alliance of villains.The Beyonder's Game BeginsTo begin, the panel breaks down how the episode wastes no time setting the tone for Secret Wars. The mysterious Beyonder suddenly plucks Spider-Man from his daily life, then transports him to a strange planet built from fragments of different worlds. His mission is clear: unite a squad of Marvel's greatest heroes to face off against an equally dangerous collection of villains.Furthermore, the hosts explore how this storyline instantly raises the scale of the series—from street-level adventures to intergalactic stakes. They emphasize the Beyonder's cryptic motives, the unique design of the Battleworld setting, and the growing sense of anticipation that builds throughout the episode.Recruiting Marvel's FinestNext, the group dives into one of the most enjoyable parts of Secret Wars: Chapter 1—watching Spider-Man handpick his team. The panel laughs over Spidey's awkward yet determined recruitment efforts, as he brings in Captain America, Iron Man, Storm, and the Fantastic Four's Thing. Each hero contributes a distinct personality and power set, which sets up plenty of potential for both teamwork and tension.In addition, the hosts note how the show cleverly gives each hero a brief introduction for new viewers without slowing the pace. This balance ensures that the story remains engaging while still welcoming those unfamiliar with the wider Marvel universe.Villains AssembleMeanwhile, the Beyonder's challenge would not be complete without a formidable opposing force. The episode's other half focuses on Doctor Doom, Red Skull, Doctor Octopus, and the Lizard as they prepare for battle. The group discusses how Doom quickly positions himself as the strategic mastermind, while the other villains underestimate Spider-Man's leadership skills.Moreover, they point out how the episode masterfully builds suspense by teasing the intense confrontations still to come in the arc, leaving fans eager for the next installment.Final Thoughts: Secret Wars Sets the Stage for Epic BattlesIn conclusion, the hosts agree that Secret Wars: Chapter 1 – Arrival serves as the perfect setup for a multi-part event. With a high-concept premise, a massive cast of Marvel icons, and the promise of world-shaking battles, it propels Spider-Man: The Animated Series into truly epic territory.Ultimately, whether you're revisiting the series or experiencing it for the first time, this episode proves that Secret Wars remains one of the most ambitious and thrilling animated Marvel stories ever told.Links and ResourcesMissed our previous episodes of Spider-Man the Animated Series?

The tension rises until the stunning revelation: this isn't the real MJ—it's a clone, artificially created from water by Miles Warren.The team explores the emotional fallout of this twist. They unpack Peter's heartbreak, the ethical questions of cloning, and the way this storyline echoes real-world identity crises. This moment, they argue, marks one of the most daring turns in the series.Spider-Man and Black Cat Face the Final BattleAs Peter reels from the truth, Black Cat steps in once more. Together, they track down Hydro-Man and his creators, leading to a final showdown that's both action-packed and emotionally charged. The hosts break down the animation, the choreography, and the stakes in what becomes one of the series' most memorable battles.The discussion also highlights how MJ's clone—despite not being real—chooses to sacrifice herself to stop Hydro-Man. It's a tragic yet noble moment that further deepens the episode's emotional impact.Final Thoughts: Mary Jane Clone Leaves a Lasting MarkIn the closing segment, the hosts reflect on the legacy of the Mary Jane clone storyline. While controversial at the time, they agree it added unexpected depth to Peter Parker's arc and gave the animated series one of its boldest story beats.Between a thrilling Spider-Man mystery and exciting movie chatter, this episode of The Superhero Show Show is packed with superpowered surprises.

The Superhero Show Show #595STAS: Hydro-Man ReturnsThe Superhero Show Show: Hydro-Man's Return Shakes Up Spider-Man's WorldOn this week's Superhero Show Show, the hosts dive into the soggy chaos of Spider-Man: The Animated Series, season 5, episode 7, The Return of Hydro-Man, Part 1. The spotlight is on the return of one of Spidey's most relentless and emotionally charged villains: Hydro-Man. In this thrilling breakdown, the hosts explore Hydro-Man's watery revenge tour, Peter and Mary Jane's ill-fated honeymoon, and the shocking return of Black Cat to New York City.Hydro-Man Interrupts a Honeymoon at Niagara FallsThe episode opens with Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson finally getting their much-deserved happily-ever-after…or so they think.

With MJ missing, Black Cat back in the mix, and Hydro-Man growing more dangerous by the minute, this episode sets the stage for one of Spider-Man: The Animated Series' most compelling two-parters.Tune in to The Superhero Show Show as the hosts explore the beginning of this turbulent arc, where Hydro-Man's obsession, Spider-Man's anguish, and a missing MJ make for one unforgettable ride.Links and ResourcesMissed our previous episodes of Spider-Man the Animated Series?

Hey it's the summer of Superman, so let's look back at the comic book exploits of the big blue boy scout, share some Supes memories, and explore the origins of his encounters with the caped crusader.

In 1994, the Fantastic Four franchise was poised for a breakout year with an animated series that aimed to capture the spirit of the comics. However, despite its promising concept, the show suffered from poor execution. For this animation weekend, The Film Buff shares his insight on why one particular episode resonates deeply with him, as it may be the only time a famous issue from the comics was adapted for the screen.

Everyone has a hot take, but not all opinions are created equal—and tonight, they're putting theirs on display. From the final frontiers of franchise canon to the captains, crews, and creative choices that divide the fandom, no corner of the Trek universe is safe. Expect a lively and honest conversation that challenges long-held beliefs and re-examines the things we all thought were settled. The guys are pulling no punches as they each share five of their most unpopular Star Trek opinions—and believe us, some of them might raise a Vulcan eyebrow or two. Whether it's about storylines, characters, or what should (or shouldn't) count as "real Trek," these takes are bound to get people talking. Of course, it's all in good fun. Thursday Night Geeks is a celebration of everything Star Trek—disagreements and all. So pour a raktajino, strap in, and get ready to yell at your screen (or maybe nod in silent agreement). You might not agree with everything said... but you'll definitely have an opinion about it. Be sure to hang around after the end theme for a brand-new outake from Bill and Dan recorded after this episode livestreamed! ======================================= Music for Trek Geeks is provided by the world's greatest Star Trek band, FIVE YEAR MISSION!

“Nothing Hectic” This week, the Sistas are thrilled to bring you a special treat: the audio from our press junket with the cast of AppleTV+'s sci-fi epic Foundation! After two long years, we finally had the opportunity to meet and speak with this incredible ensemble, and we couldn't be more excited to share it with you—just in time for the Season 3 premiere on July 11th. ✨ NO SPOILERS – Just good vibes and great convos.

Audio from Thursday Night Geeks We're charting a course straight into the explosive Season 2 finale of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds — "Hegemony." With tensions high and the Gorn deadlier than ever, the crew of the Enterprise faces a nightmare scenario that pushes Starfleet ideals to the breaking point. We'll examine how the series handles high-stakes conflict, moral dilemmas, and the weight of command in this harrowing final chapter of the season. We'll dive deep into Captain Pike's impossible choice and the toll it takes—not just on him, but on his relationships with his crew. From Spock's desperate search for Christine Chapel to La'an's cold tactical edge, every major character is tested under fire. We'll also take a closer look at the return of the Gorn as a modern Trek threat—what works, what terrifies, and what it all means for Starfleet going forward. And of course, we'll talk about that ending. The final moments of "Hegemony" leave us on the edge of our seats and wondering how the crew can possibly regroup. Has the Enterprise ever been this outmatched? Join us as we unpack the emotional weight, story structure, and cinematic style of the episode that's redefining what a Trek finale can be.

The Superhero Show Show #592STAS: Electro's IntroductionThe Superhero Show Show: Electro's Introduction Sparks a New Threat in Spider-ManThis week on The Superhero Show Show, the hosts shine a spotlight on episode 5.05 of Spider-Man: The Animated Series, titled “Chapter V: The Price of Heroism”—an electrifying entry that marks Electro's introduction to the series. As Spider-Man faces the rise of one of his most powerful foes yet, the podcast team explores how this new villain reshapes the stakes in Season 5's escalating storyline.Power Surge: Electro's Introduction Shocks the Spider-VerseThe episode discussion begins with a breakdown of how Electro is introduced as a truly formidable opponent. Unlike earlier portrayals of costumed criminals, this version of Electro is depicted as the son of the Red Skull and an unstoppable energy force—blending family legacy, global threat, and raw power. The hosts praise the dramatic buildup to his reveal and how his abilities present a level of danger that Spider-Man hasn't faced in this arc.They also highlight how Electro immediately asserts dominance, not only overpowering Spider-Man but also turning on his father, the Red Skull, and taking control of the doomsday device. The panel debates whether Electro's raw energy and desire for control make him one of the show's most terrifying foes.The Cost of Heroism and Spider-Man's DesperationMoving into character dynamics, the hosts focus on the emotional and thematic weight of “The Price of Heroism.” As the title suggests, this episode forces heroes to grapple with sacrifice. Captain America and Spider-Man both make major decisions in the face of Electro's overwhelming power. The podcast highlights Spider-Man's desperation as he attempts to stop a foe he cannot outfight.They also touch on the return of Black Widow and the use of parallel world tech. It's a visually ambitious episode that ties multiple threads together while still introducing a new antagonist with gravitas.Final Thoughts: Electro's Introduction Sparks High StakesAs the episode wraps up, the panel agrees that Electro's introduction injects fresh danger and energy into the final season of Spider-Man: The Animated Series. His emergence sets the stage for an epic confrontation, testing not only Spider-Man's abilities but his resolve.With dynamic action, emotional depth, and a villain worthy of the spotlight, “Chapter V: The Price of Heroism” proves to be a standout. And as always, The Superhero Show Show delivers sharp analysis, witty banter, and the superhero commentary fans crave.Links and ResourcesMissed our previous episodes of Spider-Man the Animated Series?
