In this week's ball-"advanturing" episode, the spotlight swivels back to Astro City. What is that makes Astro City so awesome? Well, the fact that it's awesome helps. And this week is the start of something special (and awesome!) (and an "advanture"!) because Uncle Magnus begins analyzing, picking apart and pondering Astro City #02. Which should be enough all by itself but added to that is the fact that this is the beginning of the very first multi-part Astro City story! What an "advanture"! How awesome! So what's the life of a kid like when she's raised inside the superhero community and frequently has to duke it out with supervillains before dinnertime? What effect does that have on her social life? And how exactly does one play hopscotch anyway? All these questions plus many, many more are answered in this awesome "advanturous" episode! Did Stan Lee use this many exclamation points back in the old days? No! So what are you waiting for? Start listening right now! Otherwise your children will never learn how to play hopscotch. Also this week, His Excellency Magnus re-announces again an upcoming brand new megaseries coming soon to a podcast receiver near you in the not-too-distant future very soon in a short time! It won't be long now! Due to the avalanche of awesomeness, there's just no time for listener feedback this week. But there's some time for some brand-spanking new feed-forward! Yes indeedy, the show about Astro City #01 resulted in feedback which His Excellency decided could only be handled in this episode (which is about Astro City #02, get the picture?). No time for feedback though. Anyway. But Magnus has slowly been getting caught up lately. There's been some feedback recently so don't be left out! You too can offer your feeble effort at tribute whenever you want! Yes indeed, you humble serfs are always welcome to kiss your benevolent leader's ring. Corrupt DiManzocorp interns are ready, willing, able and eager to accept your bribe to present your meager missives to your wise emperor. The email address to use is trentusmagnus@gmail.com as the other seems to be having technical problems. In an another sublime act of truly ball-shriveling magnanimity, your emperor permits you lowly rabble to suggest topics for a future episode. Thus, requests may be sent to trentusmagnus@gmail.com for the aforementioned corrupt DiManzocorp interns (who probably lack souls) to review, whereupon your leader might consider thinking about the possibility of potentially discussing whatever you have in mind some day. And that's a promise!

In this week's ball-revealing episode, the secret gets revealed! And Magnus is along for the ride as the splotlight shines on Lex Luthor in Superman #02, this week's comic book of interest. What exactly would happen if Lex Luthor discovered Superman's secret identity? Well, if you've read Superman #02 before, odds are you already know. Unless you have a really crappy memory or something. But if you've never read Superman #02 before, THE ANSWER WILL FREAKING SHOCK AND AMAZE YOU! Sounds a little click-baity, doesn't it? And yet, commenting on that little plot development here would defeat the purpose of listening to this episode. And, indeed, reading this comic. So start listening right now. Otherwise, who knows? Maybe Lex Luthor will send Breen and Jenner to pay you a little visit. And we all know what happened to them in the end, don't we? Those of us who have actually read Superman #02 have anyway.

In this week's ball-grabbing episode, Magnus begins Phase Two of the Smallville retrospective. In this week's adventure, His Excellency Magnus talks about the dreaded fourth season premiere, Crusade. No, really! That's it! Just one episode! Talking just about Crusade uses up all the time Magnus had for this week. So what could possibly take one hour, three minutes and thirty-three seconds? Well, there's only one way to get the answer to that, eh? During Smallville Phase One, the policy was to guard against spoilers. But that's going straight down the tubes for the dreaded fourth season retrospective as the decree has been handed down from on high that the dreaded season four's story points are mostly not worth protecting. The word "mostly" is a tell. There is one spoiler that your leader can only stomach talking about just once. But all other spoilers are fair game this season. For those determined to ruin the Internet for everyone else by perpetuating click-bait on Facebook, "You won't believe what Magnus says about the perverts he went to school with!" Due to the avalanche of ass-kickery, unfortunately there was just no time for listener feedback this week. Something will need to be done about the backlog of feedback. But don't worry, loyal subjects, your leader has a few ideas. But in the meantime, don't let the lack of feedback this time get you down! You can still offer your feeble effort at tribute!

By popular demand, a short, sweet Trentus Magnus Jabs Reality special. You guys have been beating down my door wanting to know what I think of the Force Awakens. So here it is! His Excellency Magnus avoided all spoilers concerning the Force Awakens and even avoided other podcasters reacting to the movie before recording. What ensues is about 15 or so minutes of off-the-cuff reaction that isn't influenced by anybody else. Listener discretion is advised! No, really, you should think twice about listening to this show because you may not like some of the stuff I have to say.

In this week's ball-remaking show, the wheels fall off the wagon! Yes, there will be no new Big Book Report this week as was originally scheduled. And there's really nobody to blame for that either. The simple truth is the Big Book Reporters couldn't work out their schedules well enough to allow time to record. It happens! So instead. His Excellency Magnus took a show originally scheduled to come out in December 2015 and moved it ahead to this week. The show must go on, after all. And it fits! This entire episode relates very directly to Father's Day. Because of that, this was the logical choice to release this week. The fact that it's been recorded, edited, mixed and scored for months now doesn't hurt either. This week's subject matter is an epically long look back at Detective Comics #627. It's a collection of stories titled (or at least based on) the Case of the Chemical Syndicate originally published in Detective Comics #27. It's a tribute to Batman's 600th appearance in Detective Comics and the comic DIDN'T DISAPPOINT! So join your leader on an unexpected but still welcome excursion into yesteryear (or yesterdecade as the case may be) and soak up the fun and excitement of Batman's first story! Due to the length, width and girth of this week's penetrating show, there is no time to soak up the adulation of the filthy masses. Even so, the rest of you commoners and simpletons are always welcome to pay your pathetic attempt at tribute to your leader. DiManzocorp interns are ready, willing, able and eager to accept bribes to present your meager missives to your wise leader. The email address to use is excellency@trentusmagnus.com, whereupon your leader might consider thinking about the possibility of potentially discussing whatever you have in mind some day. And that's a promise! In an another act of truly sublime charity, the leader permits the lowly rabble such as you to kiss his ring regarding this or any other episode.

In this week's ball-sabering show, the final one before the epic, epic, EPIC 100th episode, Magnus winds up the downtime with a partially fond, partially hostile, partially ambivalent look back at Star Wars- Episode I- The Phantom Menace. Much has been said about this, the most maligned Star Wars film of all time. But none of it has been said by His Excellency Magnus and so you haven't heard EVERYTHING yet. Actually, there's a very good argument that you haven't heard ANYTHING yet. Is it the greatest film ever made? A cancer upon the Star Wars saga? The loudest, harshest, most ball-kicking wake up call the fan community ever got? A middle finger from a complacent, out of touch billionaire toy huckster playing filmmaker? Or is it one man's deadlevel best effort to deliver an entertaining film? Giving that away would nullify any requirement to listen to the episode, would it not? Still, for you weak-minded fools who never fail to be tricked by tricky click-bait trickery, tactics "Magnus said *WHAT* about Ben Burtt?!" Usually now is the time when feedback would become an issue. But, in yet another showcase of unprecedented podcasting brilliance married with a neverending, nigh-unmatched awareness of the lowly, simple folk, His Excellency actively solicited feedFORWARD from the podcasting vassals and loyal subjects who are members of the Magnus empire on Facebook. Be it audio recording or simple text email, each endeavors in the second segment to deliver his or her views concerning this picked on nugget of Star Wars lore in a way that attempts to pay tribute to the magnificence which Magnus delivered in the first segment. Tickets will be torn, corn will be popped, soda will be slurped, Sith will be bisected, pods will be raced, blood will be shed, tears will be wiped away, and Jar Jar will probably fart or something as Magnus finally brings the long, painful co-existence The Fans and Episode I have had to endure lo these past many years. Even so, the rest of you commoners and simpletons are always welcome to pay your pathetic attempt at tribute to your leader.

This latest ball-drowning episode finds His Excellency Magnus taking a long, fond and nostalgic look back at Batman- Going Sane, a four part story from Legends of the Dark Knight #65-#68 geniusly written by JM DeMatteis, masterfully illustrated by Joe Staton and imaginatively lettered by Willie Schubert. The pitch is simple enough: What if the Joker wins? What follows is a journey through darkness and insanity that Apocalypse Now can only dream of. This story is so awesome that a strong argument can be made that mass audiences *STILL* haven't recovered from it. Certainly the Joker has it. Take your Death of the Family silliness outside; nobody cares. Going Sane is what the Joker is *ALL* about. The common rabble aren't left out of the fun either! Nope. This week His Excellency stretches the ol' mail sack once again so that the lowly peasants can pay their great leader the honor which he is due. Even so, the rest of you simple commoners are welcome to kiss His Excellency's ring of greatness too. DiManzocorp interns are ready, willing and able to accept bribes to present your missives to Magnus. The email address to use is excellency@trentusmagnus.com, whereupon your emperor might consider thinking about the possibility of potentially discussing whatever you have in mind some day. And that's a promise! In an act of nearly incomprehensible charity, your wise potentate permits lowly miscreants such as you to pay homage regarding this or any other episode. Thus, your notes of humble devotion may be sent to excellency@trentusmagnus.com for DiManzocorp interns to review.

In this latest ball-tasing episode, Magnus goes to great pains to show listeners and stuffy DC editors that, in spite of all claims to the contrary, Green Lantern- Emerald Dawn is most assuredly *NOT* a sin. It begins with awesomeness. Which, of course, His Excellency has in the utmost abundance. And that leads to an idea. The idea in this case being to establish that Jim Owsley, Keith Giffen, Gerard Jones and MD Bright are men amongst men when it comes to all things Green Lantern. The end result of any such undertaking can only be the face-rocking splendor which longtime listeners have come to expect and which first time listeners will have their faces rocked by. For those given to cheap click-bait gimmicks, "You won't believe what Magnus said about Emerald Dawn! My wife just went sterile listening to this!" But it's not *ALL* comics this week. Nope! This week's plentiful helping of badassitude is wrapped up with plebes giving adoring tribute to His Excellency Magnus in this week's feedback section. "You just won't believe who Magnus reads email from this week!" Additional acts of homage are never discouraged though so any of you peasants with ideas for a topic should feel free to e-mail your beloved king at trentusmagnus@gmail.com and he might consider thinking about the possibility of potentially discussing whatever you have in mind some day. And that's a promise! In an act of almost unprecedented charity and generosity, Magnus allows you lowly peasants to kiss his ring regarding this and any other episode. Thus, notes of admiration may be sent to trentusmagnus@gmail.com for His Excellency's servants to review.

In this latest ball-haunting episode, Magnus is once again joined by Two True Freaks co-host and former crime scene investigator Chris Honeywell for another entry in the Big Book Report series. This time around, His Excellency Magnus and his humble vassal Honeywell plum the depths the Big Book of Death, which itself attempts to plum the depths of every conceivable way to check out, go to that big LCS in the sky, swim the fishes, become worm food, buy the farm, reach one's expiration date and, most of all, shuffle off this mortal coil. Seriously, people, *GOTH CHICKS* probably don't talk as much about death as Magnus and his loyal sidekick Honeywell do in this show. And as ever, there are tangents aplenty. Politics, religion, sexual preference, the Great Pumpkins, Fight Club, virtually *EVERYTHING* you don't talk about with people gets talked about by these insensitive reactionaries. Because of this show's amazing splendidness, there isn't time for any of you lowly nobodies to kiss His Excellency's ring in the feedback section. Still, if any of you peasants have ideas for a topic, you should feel free to e-mail your beloved potentate at trentusmagnus@gmail.com and he might consider thinking about the possibility of potentially discussing whatever you have in mind some day. And that's a promise! Those of you who wish to express your obsequiousness to His Excellency regarding this and any other episode may send their notes of devotion to trentusmagnus@gmail.com.

It's time for another listenable episode of Just One of the Guys: A Green Lantern Podcast (I'll leave it to His Excellency Magnus to have the ball-smashing episodes) as we continue our look at the Judd Winick run on Green Lantern with issue #136, part three of the "While Rome Burned" story arc. After rescuing Alan Scott from the demonic constructs of Alex Nero, Kyle is forced to call in the big guns (read that Superman and the rest of the JLA) in order to take down the menace with whatever means necessary. Plus, Guy Gardner Warrior comes to defend his adopted home of New York City from this devestating attack, rather than being left out of the book the last time a major threat hit the Big Apple (*cough* Day of Judgment *cough* Geoff Johns *cough*). Plus we continue our look at the fifth week event Circle of Fire, where the Atom must team up with sibling Green Lanterns Hunter and Forest (I'm not making that up) to try and deductively reason which villain could be behind the creation of Oblivion, the brand new, superpowered being threatening to destroy the universe...or something, most of these near godlike beings have the same shtick.

It's time for another listenable episode of Just One of the Guys: A Green Lantern Podcast (I'll leave it to His Excellency Magnus to have the ball-smashing episodes) as we continue our look at the Judd Winick run on Green Lantern with issue #136, part three of the "While Rome Burned" story arc. After rescuing Alan Scott from the demonic constructs of Alex Nero, Kyle is forced to call in the big guns (read that Superman and the rest of the JLA) in order to take down the menace with whatever means necessary. Plus, Guy Gardner Warrior comes to defend his adopted home of New York City from this devestating attack, rather than being left out of the book the last time a major threat hit the Big Apple (*cough* Day of Judgment *cough* Geoff Johns *cough*). Plus we continue our look at the fifth week event Circle of Fire, where the Atom must team up with sibling Green Lanterns Hunter and Forest (I'm not making that up) to try and deductively reason which villain could be behind the creation of Oblivion, the brand new, superpowered being threatening to destroy the universe...or something, most of these near godlike beings have the same shtick.

In this latest ball-slamming episode, Magnus continues the Smallville season 01 retrospective series, tackling episode 14- Zero through episode 17- Reaper. A *MAJOR* Smallville trope gets introduced in this batch of episodes, an old villain returns (briefly) and there are two incredibly annoying guest stars. Also, we once again dip into listener feedback. Grateful subjects of His Excellency Magnus express their loyalty and try to understand just what makes their leader so amazing. But there are no words to explain something like that, of course. Do you have a suggestion for a topic?

This is it! In this latest ball-cutting episode, His Excellency Magnus is once again joined by Two True Freaks co-host and former SNL script writer Chris Honeywell for the latest in the Big Book Report series, this one centering on the Big Book of Hoaxes from DC Comics/Paradox Press, written by Carl Sifakis and illustrated by artists too numerous (and awesome) to mention.This 3.5 hour epic features one of the episode's co-hosts confessing a willingness to experiment with cannibalism, Magnus throwing a verbal grenade about all journalism at all times in the entire world all through history, sound clips from movies and Magnus digging through listener feedback. And at some point, Magnus and Honeywell also talk about the hoaxes listed in the book.3.5 hours, people. This episode is not for the faint-hearted. If you suffer from high blood pressure, low blood pressure, astigmatism, lysdexia, hearing loss, erectile dysfunction or basically any other problem, this episode may not be safe for you. During test-screenings of this episode, professional hockey players were known to break down in defeated paroxysms of grief over their relative inadequacy compared to the bone-crushing, bare-chested manliness Magnus exhudes just by showing up.Do you have a suggestion for a topic?

In this latest ball-scorching show, Magnus does commentary for Man of Steel. The comments start immediately. No preamble, no opening credits, no promos, no closing comments, nothing. This is pure, undiluted Man of Steel talk. All thrilla, no filla in the mighty Magnus tradition of manliness. If you want to watch the movie in sync with this commentary, press play on both of them immediately and the syncing should take care of itself. Pro film buffs all agree that the amount of Badass in this commentary is nigh unprecedented so be ready to have your face rocked off, glued back on and then rocked off again by His Excellency Magnus.Finally, Superman Begins as a miniseries grew far beyond what was originally planned. Because of that, the remaining episodes will drop on Tuesday 11.05, Friday 11.08, Tues 11.12, Friday 11.15 and Tuesday 11.19.2013 to get everything out there. After Episode 17/Superman Begins 06, the final chapter of the miniseries, is released, the weekly release day of Tuesday will resume... just in time for the migration over to the Two True Freaks podcast network.Do you have a suggestion for a topic?

In this latest ball-burning episode, Magnus continues his exploration of Superman origin stories in comics. This time out, the subject is 1986's Man of Steel miniseries written and drawn by The Mighty John Byrne, which, apart from being a scorched Earth reboot, is an amazingly well-written and historic miniseries which set the context for Superman over the next 20'ish years. Additionally, this iteration of Superman is the subject of a dedicated podcast known as From Crisis to Crisis- A Superman Podcast, which can be found at http://www.supermanhomepage.com/multimedia/multimedia.php?topic=crisis-podcast. His Excellency Magnus highly approves of this show and encourages all his loyal subjects to listen to it.

Ever wonder what would've happened if Luke hadn't blown up the Death Star? Probably not. But comic book writer Chris Warner sure has and he breaks down how things might've played out if the Battle of Yavin hadn't been completely successful. And in this ball-blasting episode, His Excellency Magnus finishes his break in regular episodes to talk about the ups, downs, fits, starts, highs, lows, peaks and valleys of the Star Wars- Infinities miniseries.

In his latest adventure, our hero rereads the now classic Mark Waid/Barry Kitson "Threeboot" Legion of Superheroes #1-5 and then reviews the first four issues of the Jimmy Palmiotti Jonah Hex series that Scott Gardner has been in love with for decades. This much awesome in one podcast is simply unheard of. Studies have shown this podcast episode to risk making other men envy the awesomeness of His Excellency Magnus and make otherwise healthy women barren and sterile.
