Podcasts about Harley Quinn

Grab your cape and your cold one, because Shayne and Jay are suiting up for a DC Universe deep dive. Round 322 is a Redux of the classic BT40, and these two self-proclaimed experts (their words) are ready to settle the score between the DC and Marvel movie universes. Spoiler: Wonder Woman wins everything.Topics include:Man of Steel, Henry Cavill, and the Zod controversyBatman v Superman and why Gal Gadot saved the whole movieSuicide Squad, Jared Leto's divisive Joker, and Margot Robbie's scene-stealing Harley QuinnWhy DC rushed their cinematic universe and paid for itWhere Wonder Woman ranks among Marvel movies**Round 322**~~~~~~~**Support the Show on Patreon!**Want more Beer Thursday in your life?

And yes, they are expertise. They even discovered a hidden Marvel movie once. Nobody else figured that out.**Man of Steel gets some love.**Jay is a lifelong Superman fan, and he gives Henry Cavill major props for making the role his own without trying to copy Christopher Reeve. The bus rescue scene, the weight of Clark Kent's childhood, and yes, the controversial ending with General Zod all get the Beer Thursday treatment.**Batman v Superman? Mixed feelings.**Jay basically calls it a decent Batman movie that Superman happened to show up in. Shayne enjoyed it because he is easily entertained. Both agree that Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman entrance alone was worth the price of admission.**Suicide Squad and the Joker problem.**Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn? Brilliant. Jared Leto as the Joker? Not so much. The guys give full credit where it's due and move on quickly.**The big question: Did DC rush it?**Shayne makes a sharp point. Marvel spent years building up to the Avengers. DC threw everyone into the same movie by film number two. The game was not allowed to come to them.**Wonder Woman stands alone.**Jay calls it his favorite DC movie and says it comes close to Marvel caliber. Where exactly it ranks among Marvel films is a question that will require its own round.Part 2 is coming. Whenever that is.~~~~~~~Disclosure: I don't really have a house elf. Artie is AI. Get it?

PLEASE SIGN UP ON PATREON, EVEN IF IT'S FOR FREE! Posting everything here has become a burden, and if you're only listening to this feed you probably aren't getting all of the episodes. Patreon dot com slash frotcast! Sign up at Patreon to listen to the full episode. It’s two podcasts (Pod Yourself and the Frotcast) for the price of one!  This week on the Frotcast, returning bald man Justin Halpern (Cougartown, Harley Quinn, Abbott Elementary) joins us to talk about his latest book Get Lost. For his fourth release, he's going in a different direction by writing a novel, which is about…dads and baseball. It's probably about a whole lot more than that to be fair, but we completely derail the conversation with some Godforsaken California Town chat. Sorry to any listeners for whom this is niche to the point of meaninglessness. Just remember the important part: Clovis is the Paris of the Central Valley, not to be confused with the Paris of the Inland Empire, which is Perris. Justin also casually drops that he was on the Bert Kreischer podcast (shirt on), then even more casually drops that he was on Joe Rogan (unclear if shirt on), whereupon he shares with us some delightful details of the Joe Rogan Experience experience. Spoiler: he took DMT and saw a vision of Papa Roach playing the Sleep Train Amphitheater in Chula Vista. Raise a glass, with your pinky up of course, for our favorite southern dandy Lindsey Graham. That's right, Lady G, the ladybug himself, kicked the bucket, in a watershed day for gay sex workers along the Eastern Seaboard who enjoy posting online. We solemnly and respectfully remember a revered American statesman who worked tirelessly to strip the rights away from everyone except white straight men and rally support for completely unjustified foreign wars. We may not have always agreed with him, but what's a little quibble on whether or not to murder thousands of people between pals? Finally, we watched The Furious. There's lots of ass whooping, which whoops ass. Ass is whooped, then it's whooped some more. Then a nerdy dude who you think is about to get his ass whooped turns out to be a complete ass whooper, and he then proceeds to whoop hella ass. It whooped ass. Solid B+.

Fire up the randomizer, because the Binge Buddies are about to get fantabulously emancipated. > Welcome back to "Hall of Just Us," where your hosts Bryan, Matt, Joel, and Ryan are breaking away from the typical grim superhero formula to celebrate 2020's surprisingly fantastic Birds of Prey. Cathy Yan and Margot Robbie crafted a vibrant, chaotic, R-rated carnival ride that breathes fresh, glitter-filled air into the DCEU. The guys are breaking down Harley Quinn's phenomenal solo-ish outing, the bone-crunching roller derby action, and the killer chemistry of the newly formed squad. We also have to talk about Ewan McGregor having the absolute time of his life playing the wildly narcissistic Black Mask—complete with his hilariously ruthless "ew, gross, kill her too" reaction to a grieving child's snot bubble. Grab your perfect breakfast egg sandwich and hit play—it's time for some mayhem!

THE SITCOM THAT MADE GEEK CULTURE MAINSTREAM! John Humphrey & Aaron Alexander experience The Big Bang Theory Season 1 Episodes 1-5 for the first time, reacting to the hilarious beginnings of one of television's biggest comedy series. From Sheldon Cooper's unforgettable introduction, Leonard meeting Penny, and the iconic "That's My Spot" to Klingon Boggle, Howard's awkward flirting, and Raj's inability to talk to women, this Big Bang Theory reaction revisits the episodes that started it all. Taking care of your health just got easier – start here with Zocdoc: https://zocdoc.com/REJECTS #sponsored The Big Bang Theory Season 1 Episodes 1-5 Reaction (Full Length Watch Along):   / thereelrejects   In this The Big Bang Theory Season 1 Episodes 1-5 reaction, Big Bang Theory pilot reaction, and review, John & Aaron react to the hit sitcom created by Chuck Lorre (Two and a Half Men, Mom) and Bill Prady (Gilmore Girls, Dharma & Greg), starring Jim Parsons as Sheldon Cooper (Young Sheldon, Hidden Figures), Johnny Galecki as Leonard Hofstadter (Roseanne, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation), Kaley Cuoco as Penny (The Flight Attendant, Harley Quinn), Simon Helberg as Howard Wolowitz (Florence Foster Jenkins, Annette), and Kunal Nayyar as Raj Koothrappali (Criminal: UK, Trolls). From Sheldon's rigid routines and endlessly quotable one-liners to Leonard and Penny's first interactions, geek culture references, and the chemistry that made the series a worldwide phenomenon, John & Aaron discuss whether The Big Bang Theory's first five episodes still hold up and why the show became one of the most beloved sitcoms of all time.

This week on the AIPT Comics Podcast, we're joined by Scott Snyder for one of our favorite conversations of the year. We dive deep into Absolute Batman, the newly announced animated series, why he believes monthly comics need to embrace what makes the medium unique, and the creative philosophy driving one of comics' biggest successes. It's a candid, wide-ranging discussion on storytelling, the future of superhero comics, and why taking big swings matters more than ever. Visit our Patreon page to see the various tiers you can sign up for today to get in on the ground floor of AIPT Patreon. We hope to see you chatting with us on our Discord soon!

Dave: A Mischief of Magpies #1 (Bilquis Evely) Chris: Nightwing #140 (Jorge Fornes Main) Interview: Interview: Scott Snyder 1. Manga storytelling influence Joe Kelly recently mentioned how manga like One Piece can devote entire chapters to a single action sequence, something that's harder to replicate in American comics because of page counts and production realities. Is manga storytelling an influence on your work, and do you find yourself thinking about how to capture that same sense of scale and rhythm within Western comics? 2. Marvel and DC I recently spoke with Josh Williamson about writing Iron Man, and it was fascinating hearing how he's consulting on DC projects while also becoming part of Marvel's plans. Seeing creators move more freely between publishers these days, does that ever make you want to jump back into Marvel for another major project? 3. Harley Quinn and Joker The revelation that Joker is Harley's father completely reframes both characters. What made that the right relationship for the Absolute Universe, and what storytelling opportunities does it create that couldn't exist with their traditional dynamic 4. Designing Gotham's monsters Body horror and transformation have become defining visual elements of Absolute Batman. What are your guiding principles when reinventing characters like Poison Ivy, Clayface, and others while still making them instantly recognizable? 8. Absolute Batman animated series You're serving as showrunner on the newly announced Absolute Batman animated series. How does that creative role differ from making comics, and what has surprised you most about translating this version of Batman to animation? 10. Court of Owls Finally, the Court of Owls has entered the picture. Without spoiling anything, what can readers expect from your take on one of the most important Batman concepts you've ever created?

My latest Cool Friend is the incredible comedian/actor/writer/genius James Adomian. You might recognize him from his many television and live appearances where he's impersonated folks like Mike Lindell and Bernie Sanders. You also might recognize him as Harley Quinn's BANE! While I've known James for a few years now, I wasn't sure I KNEW him, so this has been an episode about learning how someone becomes a James Adomian, and it was an incredible episode to record and present to you. I shall say no more.Enjoy it, go follow @jadomian, and head on over to patreon.com/jeffmay to enjoy early access to uncensored episodes, exclusive podcasts, and even exclusive content on this episode we recorded JUST FOR YOU PATRONS!

Harley Quinn hat Commissioner Gordon tief ins Innere von Arkham Asylum verschleppt, Batman ist ihnen dicht auf den Fersen. Auf seiner Jagd begegnet er der ebenso brillanten wie zwielichtigen Dr. Penny Young, deren Forschung schon bald eine weitaus größere Bedrohung offenbart als den bloßen Gefängnisausbruch.Nachdem Batman Commissioner Gordon aus Harley Quinns Gewalt befreit hat, wartet bereits die nächste Herausforderung: der gewaltige Bane. Im spektakulären Bosskampf zeigt sich, dass an ihm mit der experimentellen Substanz Titan gearbeitet wurde – einer neuen Droge, die Menschen in unaufhaltsame Monster verwandeln kann und deren Folgen weit über Arkham hinausreichen könnten.Zum Abschluss der Episode verlässt Gordon die Insel in Richtung Festland, während Batman erkennt, dass die Nacht noch lange nicht vorbei ist. Um den Ursprung der Titan-Verschwörung aufzudecken, macht er sich auf den Weg zu seiner versteckten Batcave auf Arkham Island.Viel Spaß beim Hören wünscht euer DttD - Team

How do you create an emotional connection between a reader and an unlikeable character? That's one of the most common questions we get as editors. The answer lies in understanding the anti-hero protagonist and Birds of Prey offers up a whole group of them to study. And where there are multiple protagonists, there are multiple plotlines. And each of those plotlines needs its own premise statement. It's a full episode this week! Enjoy! -V.

Fire up the chainsaws, because episode three of Binge Buddies is cutting into one of the most chaotic chapters of the DCEU. > Welcome back to "Hall of Just Us." This week, Bryan, Matt, Joel, and Ryan are assembling Task Force X to tackle David Ayer's undeniably rough-around-the-edges 2016 Suicide Squad. From the neon-soaked, pop-music-fueled editing room to the infamous behind-the-scenes studio meddling, the guys are dissecting the movie's messy cinematic legacy. Did Margot Robbie's pitch-perfect debut as Harley Quinn and Will Smith's carrying-the-team charisma as Deadshot save the mission? Or did Jared Leto's tattooed Joker and a world-ending CGI villain leave this anti-hero team-up dead on arrival? Rev up those engines, grab your baseball bats, and hit play—we're breaking into Belle Reve!   Intro and graphics by Jon Hardesty

Then, writer/producer Justin Halpern (Abbot Elementary, Harley Quinn) chats with Paul and Jason about his hilarious new mystery novel Get Lost, why you'll never see Batman go down on Catwoman on the Harley Quinn TV show, the origins of $#*!

Jace and Rocky break down all 17 DC releases for the week of June 24, 2026. They discuss Detective Comics #1100, where Batman, Green Arrow and Black Canary continue investigating Prion's past while the mystery surrounding the young assassin tied to his grave becomes more complicated. Bizarro Year None #2 follows Perry White and Jimmy Olsen as they try to understand the strange rules of Bizarro's square world as the series begins framing this as a distorted Bizarro origin story. Harley Quinn #63 continues Harley's darker current direction as the monochromatic infection and her fractured emotional state push her further from the zanier version of the character. Absolute Superman #20 returns with a massive battle against King Shazam as Superman, Steel and Hawkman are forced to confront whether overwhelming power can be stopped without sacrificing innocent lives. Green Lantern #36 reconnects Kyle Rayner and Jade while Odyssey's identity and past remain in question. Gotham Academy: First Year #5 follows Olive Silverlock's nightmare as it forces her to confront fears about her mother's legacy while Batman and the Gotham Academy cast move closer to the final issue. Absolute Wonder Woman #21 focuses on Absolute Wonder Woman's time in Hell separating her from Barbara Minerva, whose captivity and connection to a dangerous feline god open new questions about her future. The Peril of the Brutal Dark: An Ezra Cain Mystery #5 sees Ezra Cain's pulp adventure escalate into a Nazi-blimp action sequence that leans hard into the series' darker Indiana Jones energy. Flash #34 has Ryan North explain Flash's new precognitive ability through data, speed and probability while keeping the story light, accessible and emotionally grounded. Superman #39 pushes Superboy-Prime through multiple comic-book realities as Manchester Black tests whether he has truly changed, while Dan Mora shifts art styles to match each world. Superman: Father of Tomorrow #2 sees Jor-El refuse to let Kryptonian technology be used for weapons while Lex Luthor secretly moves forward with non-lethal weapon development, and the issue brings in Klarion and John Constantine as magic emerges as a weakness for this version of Superman. Wonder Woman #34 brings Wonder War to Diana's confrontation with Matriarch, as the fight centers on whether Wonder Woman's willpower can overcome a Green Lantern ring that Matriarch has spent years forcing to obey her. The issue also ends with Diana making a drastic choice involving the God Killer sword. Justice League Unlimited #20 has Wonder Woman nearly reach Brainiac Queen before Lex Luthor's arrogance and his use of Warp ruin the Justice League's chance to turn her, leaving her missing and possibly setting up a "Cyber Earth" timeline. Swamp Thing 1989 #3 brings Rick Veitch's long-delayed story to its most epic chapter yet, with Swamp Thing existing across different points in DC history and Darkseid appearing in a way that fits the elemental scope of the story. Zatanna #3 pits Zatanna against Agent Di Manes, whose power of quietude suppresses her voice and directly attacks the way she uses magic, while the story also involves Elodi and a muse spirit tied to a dead singer. Summer of Supergirl Special #1 continues from Lobo #4, putting Supergirl and Lobo on trial while Crush, Krypto and Dawg get pulled into the chaos, and the special also includes a Supergirl/Mary Marvel team-up plus a Mark Waid story connecting different versions of Supergirl's history. Justice League: Dream Girls #4 concludes with the Justice League apologizing to Galaxy and giving her mission leader rank, while Dreamer chooses not to join the League yet because she still needs to understand her powers on her own. They also give a rundown of this week's collected editions, reprints and facsimile releases. As always, all books are ranked from top to bottom and each host gives a Book of the Week pick.

Adam revisits James Gunn's Superman one year after its release and looks at how it holds up as DC heads toward Supergirl. We discuss why the movie's relentlessly positive take on Superman works, why the character needed to be rebuilt before being deconstructed, and how David Corenswet's Superman fits into a modern, complicated world without losing the “big blue boy scout” core. Adam also talks through the film's weaker third act, the Superman clone problem, the hypno-glasses explanation, and the standout Mr. Terrific sequence. From there, the discussion shifts to DC Studios' bigger issue: the messy selective continuity left behind by The Suicide Squad, Peacemaker, Amanda Waller, Rick Flag, Harley Quinn, and the old DCEU baggage James Gunn's reboot still has not fully escaped.

Jace and Rocky break down all 13 DC releases for the week of June 17, 2026. They discuss Batwoman #4, where Kate Kane and Renee Montoya begin searching for Alice as the mystery involving Beth, the Darkseid cult and Gotham's elite finally starts coming into clearer focus. Absolute Flash #16 sends Wally and Linda deeper into their search for Ray Palmer as young Grodd leads them toward Gorilla City and the Rogues close in. Batman/Superman: World's Finest #52 continues the heroes' adventure in Skartaris as Robin joins Travis Morgan and his allies while Tyrant Rex uses magic to turn Batman and Superman against them. Deathstroke the Terminator #4 finds Rose Wilson saving Deathstroke before father and daughter struggle to connect during a tense conversation that forces Slade to confront what kind of parent he has become. Lobo #4 follows the Main Man's attempt to break into Superman's off-world "Fortress of Storitude," bringing him into conflict with Supergirl while Krypto and Dawg create their own chaos. Absolute Green Arrow #2 sees Dinah Lance and Merlyn questioning figures from Oliver Queen's past while the mysterious archer targeting billionaires remains one step ahead of their investigation. Catwoman #88 reveals that Katarina Belova survived the fire and has been manipulating Black Mask's campaign to destroy Selina, bringing the European conspiracy and Gotham storylines together. New Titans #36 finds the team settling into Titans Mountain as Starfire leaves, Cyborg secretly works to activate a massive Mother Box and questions continue to surround Eva's nanite-based body. Justice League: Dream Girls #3 sends Galaxy back into Dreamer's mind to rescue her from the Key while the Justice League questions Galaxy's actions, and the backup follows Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy through a quiet day together. Nightwing #139 sees Dick Grayson use his scientific training to examine bodies recovered from the water while facing pressure to surrender for a crime he did not commit, leading to a confrontation with a priest whose actions create a difficult moral dilemma. Superman Unlimited #14 intensifies the questions surrounding the young Jon Kent as kryptonite, old memories and Batman's investigation begin exposing cracks in his story. Absolute Batman #21 pits Batman against the Robins before Jack Grimm confronts Bruce Wayne and claims responsibility for creating the man he became. End of Life #5 shows Eddie at his most effective as a killer before his father forces him to confront the fact that he may no longer have a place in Pluto. They also give a rundown of this week's collected editions, reprints and facsimile releases. As always, all books are ranked from top to bottom and each host gives a Book of the Week pick.

Did Aaron Judge just enter all-time territory? And are collectors too early… or already too late on Wembanyama?Aaron Judge's 2013 Bowman Chrome Superfractor resurfaced after 13 years and sold for nearly $840,000. That sparks a bigger question: where does Judge actually rank among Yankee legends and baseball's all-time greats?Then the guys dive into Victor Wembanyama's latest hobby headline as a game-used net from his historic 41-point, 24-rebound performance is turned into a 1/1 autograph card. Is this the future of memorabilia cards, or are manufacturers getting carried away?Plus, Grand Slam Cards is loaded with new releases this week, including Bowman Best Basketball, Topps Finest Football, FIFA Prizm Soccer, NBA Hoops Basketball, Leaf Baseball Nation, and more.And somehow the episode starts with a debate about Deadpool, Miles Morales, Harley Quinn, Mickey Mouse, and whether sports collectors forget stars faster than non-sports collectors.Because of course it does.This Episode:

The Arrowverse ran from 2012-2024. It was the staple of comic book TV for many people. Even though characters were limited due to movies, we got so much character development. I would argue that without the Arrowverse, DC's movies would have failed. The importance of the Arrowverse cannot be understated. Tomorrow's Legends and Dive Into DC podcasts have come together to close out the Arrowverse. Truthfully all 5 of us would not be podcasting if it was not for the Arrowverse.  Martin The Flash, Jess a.k.a Harley Quinn, and I, Geoff a.k.a. xforce11, all left feedback on Arrow for Arrowsquad. Martin & Jess came together to start the Tomorrow's Legends podcast. Martin co-hosted Arrowsquad. John & Justina hosted Maid of Steel. I guested on MoS. I guested on Legends before joining full time. We owe our podcasts, and you our audience, to the Arrowverse. In this special Sibercast Network episode, we break down the finales of each show in the Arrowverse. We asked ourselves, did the episode close the respective series out well? Did the finale close out the characters and stories well? If you had never watched the series, would watching the finale make you want to go back and watch the series? We hope you enjoy this special episode. We also hope you check out our respective podcasts and all the podcast on the Sibercast Network. Tomorrow's Legends Contact Information: If you want to join in the discussion, you can submit feedback via email to TomorrowsLegendsPodcast@gmail.com or at at https://www.speakpipe.com/TomorrowsLegends .

This week on Moving Panels: One Shot, Laramy Wells and James Brooks dive into the darker side of animated comic adaptations in “Adult Themes in Animated Comic Adaptations”.From the brutal violence of Invincible to the gothic horror of Castlevania and the emotional chaos of Harley Quinn, the conversation explores how animation evolved beyond the “kids cartoon” label to tackle trauma, horror, morality, and psychological depth.Along the way, James brings his horror movie perspective to the discussion as the guys examine why animated storytelling can sometimes hit harder than live-action.If you've ever watched a “cartoon” and immediately realized it absolutely was not made for children… this episode is for you.

Jace of The Comic Source is joined by Rocky from Comic Boom! for this week's DC Spotlight as they break down a lighter but still varied week of DC releases. Batman/Superman: World's Finest #50 gets discussed for its Dr. Destiny dream story, Superman's dream Supermobile, and a backup featuring Robin, Supergirl, Batgirl and Jimmy Olsen in a rivalry-fueled mystery. Batman/Static Beyond #5 continues to build around older Static mentoring a younger Batman Beyond while Failsafe and the larger Q-energy conflict move the story forward. Adventures of Superman: Book of El #7 delivers another dense chapter in the House of El saga with Otho-Ra, the future descendants of Superman and the larger science fiction mythology continuing to expand. Batman #8 is a slower setup issue centered on Bruce Wayne's conversation with Alan Scott, the threat of Vandal Savage, and Gotham's mayor Poison Ivy turning the city against Batman and Robin. Absolute Superman #18 stands out with Lois Lane confronting Talia al Ghul over her father's death, Ra's al Ghul showing the effect Superman has had on him, and the issue introducing Absolute versions of John Henry Irons and King Shazam while also hinting at the Phantom Stranger. Poison Ivy #43 continues G. Willow Wilson's character-driven run with Pamela Isley using her position as mayor to go after Gotham's corruption, while also advancing the fallout with Harley Quinn, Janet from HR and the consequences of Bob Venus. Bizarro: Year None #1 offers a different take on Bizarro through a Jimmy Olsen and Perry White focused story that sends them to Bizarro World, with the Daily Planet itself playing into that world's creation. JSA #18 wraps up the Year One material while also including more of the Search for the Spectre backup and its focus on the newer generation of Justice Society characters. Mad About DC #1 serves as a full Mad Magazine-style send-up of DC characters, creators and fandom with multiple standout gags and a tone both hosts found genuinely funny. Batgirl #18 leans deeper into the Spirit World mythology, Cassandra Cain's growing connection to the Wu clan, and the question of whether Lady Shiva is capable of redemption. The episode also includes a rundown of the week's collected editions along with rankings for the books discussed and selections for Book of the Week.

Today on Too Opinionated, we're diving into one of DC's most shocking and brutal Elseworlds stories — DCeased. Created by Tom Taylor, with art by Trevor Hairsine and Stefano Guadiano, DCeased is an out-of-continuity horror miniseries that reimagines the DC Universe under siege by a techno-organic virus born from a corrupted Anti-Life Equation. When Darkseid's tampering unleashes a digital plague across Earth, heroes and villains alike fall to a terrifying infection that spreads through technology. The result? A full-scale DC zombie apocalypse. We break down:

To wrap up this January, we're revisiting our inspiring conversation with the woman you've heard a thousand times but don't know it: Voice Actor Tara Strong! Tara Strong opens up about her struggles with body image, why she believes magic is real, her manifestation process for attracting positivity, her connection to non-human beings and star planets, and what she thinks we can all learn from cartoons. In this magical episode, Tara also reveals the secrets behind creating some of the most iconic characters in animation! (POWER PUFF GIRLS' “Bubbles”, THE FAIRLY ODD PARENTS' “Timmy Turner”, “Harley Quinn”....and MANY more!) From discovering her voice acting gift at an early age to discussing her favorite roles, we explore Tara's unique connection with “the characters that live in her head”, her advice for aspiring voice actors, and her insights into the power of positivity and resilience. PLUS Mayim discusses her own animated voiceover acting career, the “emotional freedom” technique, and how tapping acupressure points can help you through stressful situations.
