In this second half of our conversation, Sterling dives deeper into his run on Supergirl alongside artist Jamal Igle. He shares behind-the-scenes stories about crafting Kara's voice, working hand-in-glove with Igle to re-define her place in the DC Universe, and why their collaboration remains one of the character's most beloved eras.Sterling opens up about the challenges of balancing editorial direction with his and Jamal's creative instincts, and how they fought to give Kara her own identity separate from Superman. From comics, we shift back to television as Sterling talks about his time writing for The Flash on The CW.He expands on his contributions to the ambitious Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover, explaining the difficulties of squeezing the vast scope of Marv Wolfman and George Pérez's 1985 comic series into a handful of TV hours. Sterling reveals which classic comic beats he tried to sneak into the script.Sterling also discusses his most recent creative venture: filmmaking. His short film Just the Janitor has begun its run on the festival circuit and at comic conventions, and he talks candidly about making the leap from comics and TV to directing this riveting action film. He shares the story behind the film, the lessons he's learning as a first-time filmmaker, and why he believes conventions are the perfect place for genre fans to discover it. This continuation showcases Sterling Gates as a storyteller constantly moving between mediums, bringing the same passion to a 22-page comic, a TV superhero epic, or a low-budget short action film.

This week on Our Taste is Trash, our hosts, Josh and Jade, discuss Elizabeth Banks has she is set to play Karen Read in a Prime Video limited series based on the true-crime frenzy around Read's June 2025 acquittal for the death of her Boston cop boyfriend. Next up, the hosts break down the SNL cast shakeup as Devon Walker, Emil Wakim, Michael Longfellow, and veteran Heidi Gardner leave the show. Then, in Weekly Watches:Peacemaker Season 2 (HBO Max, premiered Aug 21): James Gunn's follow‑up to The Suicide Squad continues in his newly rebooted DC Universe. Critics say it's darker, heavier, more emotional than Season 1—with Cena delivering, a tragic multiverse twist, and a brutal arc pitting Peacemaker against version of himself and the man who killed his dad. Superman (2025): Gunn's official Superman reboot (starring David Corenswet, Rachel Brosnahan, Nicholas Hoult as Lex) skips a traditional origin story and drops us into a hopeful, charismatic world where Superman isn't a god, he's a human-hearted hero—complete with Krypto the dog and a screwball romance tone. Grossed over US $600 m globally; critics praise its lightness and earnestness, though some say it's overstuffed Fisk Season 3 (Netflix): Kitty Flanagan returns as Helen Tudor‑Fisk in this quirky Aussie probate-law comedy. Now a partner at Gruber & Fisk, she navigates bonkers estate cases and awkward networking snafus. Fans found it charming, though some say the third season lacks the flawless flow of earlier ones.

Join us for the deep dive, hot takes, and laughs only Blerd's Eyeview can deliver!The third episode of Alien: Earth delves into the intricate dynamics of the characters' motivations and their entangled fates. As Wendy embarks on a harrowing journey to locate her abducted brother, the narrative explores themes of fear, resilience, and the psychological toll of survival in a world fraught with existential threats. The xenomorph, a harbinger of terror, not only represents a physical adversary but also serves as a metaphor for the internal struggles faced by the characters. The episode artfully juxtaposes Wendy's pursuit with the machinations of Mr. Morrow and his clandestine organization, Prodigy, hinting at a broader conspiracy that intertwines with the personal stakes of the characters. As the episode progresses, the tension escalates, culminating in a revelation that challenges the very essence of what it means to be human in the face of overwhelming odds.Simultaneously, the podcast addresses the implications of Peacemaker's retcon in the latest season of the beloved series. The transformation from the Justice League to the Justice Gang raises questions about identity and purpose in a universe that constantly reshapes itself. The dialogue surrounding Peacemaker's character arc underscores the struggles of reconciling past actions with present circumstances, highlighting the complexities of morality within the superhero genre. This dual narrative structure not only enhances the viewing experience but also invites thoughtful discourse on the evolving nature of heroism and villainy, especially in a landscape where allegiances are often blurred.Furthermore, the episode's exploration of mental health issues, particularly in relation to the characters' experiences, resonates deeply with contemporary audiences.

The juxtaposition of these themes within the framework of science fiction enriches the narrative, providing a multifaceted examination of human nature and societal expectations. Ultimately, Alien: Earth Episode 3 not only propels the plot forward but also serves as a poignant commentary on the human condition, making it a compelling entry in the series.Takeaways: In the latest episode of 'Alien: Earth', we delve deeply into Mr. Morrow's true intentions and the intricate scheming occurring at Prodigy, revealing layers of complexity that challenge our initial...

With Lex Luthor crazier and balder than ever, the Man of Steel teams up with the Kooky Kryptonian Klutzes to fight clones , nano bots, and untrained pets and bring you their reviews of the first film in the all new DC Universe, Superman (2025)!
This week, Tazziii is away so Nigel goes solo with guest Des Gayle from Altered Gene to dive deep into the new Superman film (starting at 20:14), directed by James Gunn.The latest addition to the DC Universe is a fresh take on the iconic superhero, introducing a new cast and new lead, but does it succeed as a narrative beyond being the first film in James Gunn's DCU reboot?We examine how this version differs from previous Superman iterations, debate whether the large cast works, and discuss why it's so difficult to make a compelling Superman film. The episode also explores the wider DCU and MCU outlook amidst general audience superhero fatigue at the box office - can these films return to their former glory? This week's storytelling tip is about effective extended dialogue scenes in fixed locations.Other stories we're enjoying include: Nightwing, Superman (DC). Bosch (Amazon Prime Video). Shinobi Art of Vengeance (PlayStation), Better Call Saul (Netflix), Fire Force (Crunchyroll), Vinland Saga (Netflix), Bob's Burgers (Disney+)Connect with Des online:Website: https://www.alteredgene.co.ukLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/desgayleTwitter: https://twitter.com/Kid_Desimo

The discourse presented in this episode explores the contrasting realms of the Teen Titans and the Justice League of America, ultimately aiming to uncover the merits inherent within both factions. Within the structure of our "Finding the Good..." series, we delve into these two prominent superhero teams, recognizing that while they exist in the same universe, they evoke distinct allegiances among fans. The conversation, led by Kevin Schaeffer and Christian Ashley, elucidates the origins, character dynamics, and the narrative significance of both groups. They examine the familial bonds that define the Teen Titans, juxtaposed with the established gravitas of the Justice League. This analysis not only seeks to celebrate the idiosyncrasies of each team but also addresses the broader theme of polarization within fandoms, fostering a nuanced appreciation for both sides of this illustrious comic book dichotomy.A comprehensive examination of the contrasting dynamics between the Justice League and the Teen Titans reveals much about the nature of heroism within the DC Universe. The Justice League, often portrayed as the pinnacle of superheroic endeavor, features iconic characters such as Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman, who embody ideals of strength, valor, and responsibility. Through their collective efforts, the Justice League addresses threats that jeopardize global stability, thus establishing a model of teamwork predicated on mutual respect and shared goals. However, this very framework can lead to perceptions of the League members as distant figures, engaging more as colleagues than as a cohesive familial unit.Conversely, the Teen Titans present a contrasting narrative, one that emphasizes the significance of camaraderie and personal relationships. The Titans, comprised of youthful heroes navigating the challenges of adolescence while confronting formidable foes, cultivate a familial bond that transcends mere association. Their adventures are punctuated by moments of shared laughter, conflict, and emotional growth, emphasizing not only their superhuman abilities but also their human vulnerabilities. This interplay of personal dynamics enriches the narrative, as each member's journey is intricately tied to their relationships with one another, fostering a deep sense of loyalty and commitment.This juxtaposition between the Justice League and the Teen Titans not only highlights the diversity of heroism within the DC Universe but also underscores the importance of personal connections in defining what it means to be a hero. While the Justice League exemplifies the ideal of adult heroism, the Teen Titans resonate with audiences through their relatable struggles and the emotional depth of their friendships, ultimately suggesting that true heroism is found in both strength and vulnerability.Takeaways: The episode explores the dynamic between the Teen Titans and the Justice League of America, highlighting their unique qualities and contributions to the DC universe. Kevin and Christian delve into their personal experiences and connections with both superhero teams, showing how these characters have influenced their lives. A significant focus is placed on the family dynamics of the Teen Titans, emphasizing the emotional bonds that unite them beyond mere heroics. The discussion acknowledges how both teams have evolved over time, reflecting on the importance of mentorship from older heroes to younger ones in the DC universe. .We discuss all this and more in this one!

Who will be the DCU's new Batman? On today's Capes and Cowls episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, Kristian Harloff, Winston A. Marshall, and Coy Jandreau break down the latest rumors, casting buzz, and big superhero news making waves this week. We start with THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD: 7 Actors Who Could Play The DCU's BATMAN With Robert Pattinson Out Of The Running (Link) — who would YOU cast as the Dark Knight in James Gunn's new DC Universe? Next, we discuss the RUMOR: Sadie Sink's SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY Role Has Been Revealed (Again) And It's No One We Expected (Link), diving into what this means for the future of the Spidey franchise. Marvel fans, we've also got an update on MARVEL ZOMBIES, which just got a new, earlier premiere date, will be very R-rated, and was originally going to be a film (Link). In DC news, James Gunn on Margot Robbie's Potential Return As Harley Quinn; Wants Idris Elba's Bloodsport In The DCU (Link) — will we see these fan-favorite characters back on the big screen? And finally, SUPERMAN Director James Gunn Reveals "Complicated" Reason For The Movie's Early Digital Release (Link). If you love superhero movies, casting speculation, and Marvel/DC updates, this Capes and Cowls episode is packed with discussion you won't want to miss.
[School of Movies 2025] This film began life before James Gunn was abruptly fired overnight, by Marvel. It languished for years through the triumph of Endgame, then the Pandemic, and Gunn's hiring by DC to direct their Suicide Squad sequel. The man who came back to pick up the script had been changed, and while Superman (2025) shows the sheer optimistic joy he's capable of imbuing his projects with, this farewell to the Guardians is a dark, furious requiem of betrayal, loss, bitter conflict and ultimately redemption. In choosing to make it all about Rocket Raccoon, the secret weapon of the MCU was taken out of the picture. He is attacked by newcomer Adam Warlock on Knowhere home turf, in a failed act of corporate reclamation. His killswitch is triggered, leaving him in a coma and it is up to the Guardians to investigate the Doctor Moreau-inspired High Evolutionary, and find out how to bring Rocket back. This leaves him absent for much of the present-day movie, stuck reliving his tragic past, and the earliest friends he made. These tragic events would twist his future actions into those of anger and neurotic rejection of even his closest companions. It is unlike any other MCU film, deeply personal and imbued with such vociferous anger that it actually becomes a mess, half hanging onto what was originally intended, half channelling the mixed, spiking emotions of going back to deal with your monster, saying goodbye to your dear friends and moving on to other and better things. The world is better for the confluence of events that led us to getting our new Superman and a brighter future of the DC Universe, but it was Gunn who took the damage, and this film exemplifies that. Next Week: The Marvels
We loved him in Superman and we're excited to see him in Peacemaker season 2, but where does the Green Lantern Guy Gardner come from? This week we read his first appearance in Green Lantern #59 and... it's not quite what we expected. And he's not the Guy Gardner we know and love. But he does fight giant robots. Before that: there's a whole bunch of news, including a look at the Punisher's Battle Van in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Zach Cregger's spec script DC Universe movie and why Superman is on PVOD as you listen to this episode. To skip this go to 35:47.Next week: It's the first episode of Peacemaker season 2. We'll see you there!
#superman2025 #jamesgunn #dcuniverse There was a lot riding on James Gunn's first swing at Superman. It's the first major motion picture in his DC Universe and would mark a dramatic change of tone from Zack Snyder's last projects with everyone's favorite Kryptonian. Fortunately for all involved, it was a big hit at the box office --- but did it put wind in our capes? As two nerds for movies, comics, and comic book movies, you'll want to stick around and share your thoughts on not just this movie, but what it hints at for the future of this new chapter for DC Comics on the silver screen.

A new Superman is flying into theaters—and one of us is flying off into the sunset. In this bittersweet episode, we react to James Gunn's Superman (2025). Did we like the suit? How was the casting? Are we vibing with the new tone? And can this reboot can actually save the DC Universe? We talk about what excites us, what worries us, and what this new era of DC films could mean for superhero movies. And… it's Nicole's final episode as a regular host. We celebrate her time on the podcast with laughs, nostalgia, and a few jabs (because, let's be honest, she wouldn't want it any other way). We discuss:

Superstar composers John Murphy and David Fleming finally enter the same room (you read that correctly) after an unusual but groundbreaking experience co-composing the score for James Gunn's SUPERMAN. How John's electric guitar-focused approach (he writes themes on a zany guitar he named Ned Flanders) harnessed the majesty of John Williams' iconic theme — and why the trailer debut was nerve racking to see if the world would accept his “version” of it. Also, how his precious guitar themes (28 Days Later, Sunshine) helped prep for how to treat this film with the sound needed. David and John discuss their breakthroughs in film composing — an internship leading to working with Hans Zimmer on The Lion King. Blue Planet II and Top Gun: Maverick — and a book titled “How To Write A Film Score” which was promptly discarded for a few pints. The duo also discuss their unique place in the massive re-launch of the DC Universe's first film — tonally a new direction that called for embracing the campiness a little more, but also the authenticity. How John's music was critical to filming, and later how David navigated a final push to expand the film's musical scope thematically. Also, Squirrelgate.
