Jace and Rocky chat aobut he DC Comics titles for the week of June 18, 2025. A stellar week with some very solid titles. Superman Unlimited #2 picks up right where the first issue left off and things are going to be very challenging for the Man of Steel going forward with Kryptonite ever and a new power that is both a blessing and a curse. Detective Comics gives up a Batman/Penguin Team-up that is both formidable and funny, while the bond that we know exists between Batman and Robin begins to show in Year One. Absolute Flash gives us a glimpse at another Absolute version of a classic Rogues character, but will Wally be up to taking him on? Catwoman continues to be a complex story that may read better as a trade and in New Gods when the refugees arrive on Earth they are met with both empathy and hostility in equal measure until John Stewart takes matters into his own hands. Finally, Krypto is getting a detailed origin like we have never seen before and its a great balance of fun and emotional moments. Join the guys to hear all about these tilles and more this week from DC!

LOOK UP IN THE SKY!! Superman Returns Full Reaction Watch Along: / thereelrejects Start your online business with a $1 per-month trial when you visit https://www.shopify.com/rejects! Andrew & Tara CONTINUE Their Road to James Gunn's Superman giving their Superman Returns Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis, & Spoiler Review!! Join Andrew Gordon & Tara Erickson as they soar back to the Man of Steel's world in Bryan Singer's Superman Returns (2006). After a five-year absence, Clark Kent / Superman (Brandon Routh, Dodgeball, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World) returns to Earth only to discover that his love, Lois Lane (Kate Bosworth, Blue Crush, 3000 Miles to Graceland), has moved on—and even has a young son, Jason. As Clark grapples with heartbreak, he uncovers a nefarious plot by Lex Luthor (Kevin Spacey, American Beauty, The Usual Suspects) to use stolen Kryptonian technology to reforge the world in his image. Rounding out the stellar cast are James Marsden (Cyclops in X-Men, Enchanted) as Lois's fiancé Richard White, Parker Posey (the “Queen of Indies” in Party Girl, Best in Show) as tabloid editor Kitty Kowalski, Sam Huntington (Disturbia, I Am Number Four) as earnest photographer Jimmy Olsen, Frank Langella (Oscar-nominated for Frost/Nixon) as Perry White, and Kal Penn (Harold & Kumar, Designated Survivor) as Richard's brother, Stanford White. The spirit of Superman's father, Jor-El, is heard in archive audio of Marlon Brando (The Godfather, Apocalypse Now), tying this chapter back to the character's origins. Don't miss Tara & Andrew's breakdown of the film's most iconic moments—from the breathtaking sequence where Superman slows time to save Lois and Jason in that penthouse fall, to the jaw-dropping finale atop Lex's oceanic fortress, where Superman confronts a golden statue come to life. We'll discuss the soaring flight through Lois's apartment, the emotional “son of Krypton” reveal, and how Superman Returns balances nostalgia with new stakes for Earth's greatest hero.

Angus continues Superman Month with a review of New York World's Fair Comics Vol 1 Story 1 'Superman at the World's Fair'. The 1939–1940 New York World's Fair would accelerate the popularity of Superman.

In a desperate time, legendary creators Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster brought to life the world's first modern superhero.

This week, Shat the Movies finally kneels before Zod—and listener Chris Lloyd—by reviewing Superman II (1980), the sequel that gave us Terrence Stamp's immortal sneer, Margot Kidder's bathrobe thirst, and Christopher Reeve's blue-eyed beefcake perfection. This episode dives headfirst into the Donner vs. Lester debate, asks how much ejaculate the Fortress of Solitude can handle, and questions Lois Lane's true intentions once Clark Kent drops the glasses—and the powers. Gene and Big D examine everything from Superman's bizarre morality and dubious revenge tactics to the wildly impractical Phantom Zone prison system. They also debate if memory-wiping kisses and cellophane logos deserve a place in superhero canon and why Perry White's newsroom features a threatening photo of Bill Cosby. Whether you're team “Mormon Dad Superman” or “Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex,” this episode delivers laughs, awkward truths, and more than a few inappropriate questions about Kryptonian sex. Plot Summary After banishing Kryptonian rebels General Zod, Ursa, and Non to the Phantom Zone, Superman continues his life as Clark Kent—until a hydrogen bomb explosion in space releases the trio. Landing on Earth, they gain Superman's powers from the yellow sun and quickly set their sights on global domination. Meanwhile, Lois Lane grows suspicious of Clark's identity, prompting him to reveal his secret and sacrifice his powers to be with her. But when Zod and his cronies begin wreaking havoc—and Lex Luthor joins their side—Superman must reclaim his abilities and protect humanity. The final showdown brings the villains to the Fortress of Solitude, where Superman uses brains over brawn to save the world, while also redefining the meaning of romantic boundaries with a memory-erasing kiss.

ONE OF THE MAJOR INSPIRATIONS FOR JAMES GUNN'S SUPERMAN!! All Star Superman Full Reaction Watch Along: / thereelrejects Save & Invest In Your Future Today, visit: https://www.acorns.com/rejects With the DCU's flagship Superman film A MONTH AWAY, Coy & John continue their road to Metropolis with their All Star Superman Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis, & Spoiler Review!! Join Coy Jandreau & John Humphrey as they celebrate the Man of Steel in All Star Superman (2011), the acclaimed DC animated adaptation of Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely's beloved comic. When Superman (voiced by James Denton of Desperate Housewives and Good Christian Belles) absorbs a lethal overdose of solar radiation saving a U.S. space mission, he learns he has only days left to live—but not before completing twelve “super” tasks for humanity. Alongside Clark Kent's heartfelt romance with Lois Lane (Christina Hendricks, Mad Men, Drive), we see Lex Luthor (Anthony LaPaglia, Without a Trace, Frasier) unleash a diabolical plot to capture the bottled city of Kandor, and Perry White (Edward Asner, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Up) struggle to keep the Daily Planet printing under cosmic threat. Standout moments include Superman's solar recharge chamber scenes, his bittersweet gift of temporary powers to Jimmy Olsen (Matthew Gray Gubler, Criminal Minds), and the climactic showdown where the dying hero still finds hope in saving the world. Nasthalthia (Linda Cardellini, Freaks and Geeks, Avengers: Endgame) offers alien perspective, Ma Kent (Frances Conroy, Six Feet Under, American Horror Story) grounds him in heart, and Steve Lombard (Kevin Michael Richardson, The Simpsons, Black Lightning) supplies brash newsroom flair. Don't miss Coy & John's breakdown of every iconic beat—from Superman racing the sun across the sky to the emotional farewell that cements his legacy as the ultimate hero!

Holy Kryptonian catastrophe, comic crusaders! This week on Play Comics, we're diving headfirst into the digital dumpster fire that is Superman: Countdown to Apokolips for the Game Boy Advance – because apparently someone thought the best way to honor Superman: The Animated Series was to trap the Man of Steel in a tiny screen prison with graphics that make MS Paint look like the Sistine Chapel. Released in 2003 by the brave souls at Mistic Software (after poor Crawfish Interactive literally died during development – talk about your occupational hazards!), this isometric adventure promised to let players soar through Metropolis while battling Livewire, Metallo, and the fashion disaster known as Kalibak. What it actually delivered was a gaming experience so punishing that even Darkseid would file a complaint with customer service. Joining us for this digital descent into madness is Adam Maresh from my local shop back when he lived by me – a man who's seen more comic-to-game adaptations crash and burn than a rejected Justice League movie pitch. Together, we'll explore how this GBA “gem” managed to score a whopping 45% on GameRankings and somehow convinced IGN to give it a 4.5/10 (which in retrospect feels generous). So grab your emergency kryptonite antidote and prepare for an episode that's more fun than actually playing the game – which, let's face it, isn't exactly setting the bar stratospheric. Will Superman's portable adventure redeem itself through sheer nostalgic charm, or will it crash harder than a Daily Planet exclusive? Tune in to find out if this animated series tie-in belongs in the Fortress of Solitude… or the Phantom Zone! Learn such things as: Should we get Golden Age Superman back? What powers do you give the man who could have anything? Where's Krypto? I want Krypto! Everyone is always talking about Krypto. And so much more! You can find Adam at a place that even I technically don't know the location of.

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it's... Richard Pryor with a supercomputer? On this episode of the 80s Flick Flashback, Tim Williams is joined by guest co-host Laramy Wells to discuss the 80s Flick sequel that nearly torpedoed the Superman franchise with its emphasis on silly sight-gags instead of the Man of Steel mythos.Will they defend the decision to replace arch-nemesis Lex Luthor with billionaire Ross Webster? Will they be able to make sense of a synthetic Kryptonite and that epic junkyard brawl? Stay tuned as they kick off the new Summer of Sequels 2 series with their nostalgic views and rad review of “Superman III” from 1983 on this episode of the 80s Flick Flashback! Here are some additional behind-the-scenes trivia we were unable to cover in this episode:When producers were first informed that Lana Lang would be a single mother, a comic book was quickly written to explain how Lana arrived at that situation.The video game that Ross Webster plays was created for the film by the Atari Corporation. Atari had also made a "Superman III" video game, based on the film, for the Atari 5200, but it was never released.Sources:Wikipedia, IMDB, BoxOfficeMojoSome sections were composed by ChatGPTWe'd love to hear your thoughts on our podcast!

Superman III Full Reaction Watch Along: / thereelrejects Download the PrizePicks today at https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/RE... & use code REJECTS to get $50 instantly when you play $5! Andrew & Tara keep their SUPERMAN MARATHON rolling down the road to James Gunn's Superman giving Superman III Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis, & Spoiler Review!! Join Andrew Gordon & Tara Erickson as they revisit the 1983 superhero romp Superman III, where Clark Kent / Superman (Christopher Reeve, Somewhere in Time, Superman II) faces his most unusual adversary yet—computer whiz Gus Gorman (Richard Pryor, Stir Crazy, Brewster's Millions). When small‐town tech genius Gus lands a gig with sinister oil baron Ross Webster (Robert Vaughn, The Man from U.N.C.L.E., Bullitt), he's duped into synthesizing Kryptonite, creating an evil doppelgänger of the Man of Steel who rampages through Smallville in one of the film's most searched‐for scenes. Meanwhile, Lois Lane (Margot Kidder, The Amityville Horror, Black Christmas) juggles her investigative instincts with her growing suspicions about Superman's strange new behavior. Rounding out the cast are Annette O'Toole as Ross's calculating wife Vera Webster (noted for 3:10 to Yuma and later TV's Superman & Lois), Pamela Stephenson as socialite Lacy Warfield (comedian from Not The Nine O'Clock News), and Jackie Cooper as Daily Planet editor Perry White (the original Pete & Gladys), plus Marc McClure returning as the ever‐awed Jimmy Olsen (Superman, Superman II). Andrew & Tara break down every standout moment—from Gus's frantic Kryptonite heist in the Arctic and the iconic “Evil Superman” fight in a Glendale parking garage to the hilariously over‐the‐top spoof of technology run amok at Ross's private plane hangar. Don't miss their take on the unforgettable sequence where Superman's alter ego lounges in Smallville's diner, the cheeky “cloning” of Superman by synthetic Kryptonite, and the climactic rooftop showdown that forces Clark to reclaim his true heroism.

Imagine this: You're walking down a Metropolis street when the ground trembles beneath your feet. People point skyward, initially with hope – assuming Superman has arrived to save the day from whatever danger approaches. But their expressions quickly shift to confusion, then horror.The figure descending from the clouds resembles Superman, but something is terribly wrong. His face is chalky white and cracked like dried mud. His costume is a backward, disheveled version of the iconic suit, the S-shield reversed and distorted. His movements are jerky and unpredictable, like a marionette with tangled strings.This isn't the Man of Steel – it's his twisted doppelgänger, Bizarro."Me am Bizarro! Me here to save day by destroying everything!" he announces in his backward, fractured speech pattern. His voice sounds like gravel in a cement mixer, a warped parody of Superman's reassuring tones.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

SEASON 2 - EPISODE 142 - Michael Shannon - Actor Actor Michael Shannon (THE BIKERIDERS, GEORGE & TAMMY, MAN OF STEEL) joins us in this episode of the Team Deakins Podcast. We worked with Michael on REVOLUTIONARY ROAD, and we had a wonderful time catching up with him. Michael shares how he first stumbled into acting, which early-career play of his took him from a tiny theatre in Chicago to the West End and Off-Broadway, and why the experience of actors coming up today is so unlike his own. We also discuss his longtime collaborative relationship with director Jeff Nichols (Season 1, Episode 28), and we reflect on his penchant for projects concerning the end of the world. We also discuss his work in TAKE SHELTER, and we learn how Michael coped with sleeping in an abandoned building during the shoot. Throughout the conversation, Michael shares his opinions on rehearsing, remaining in character after a long day, and repetitive takes, and after learning Michael just directed his first film, we ask if his perspective as an actor has changed at all. - Recommended Viewing: TAKE SHELTER - This episode is sponsored by Profoto & Aputure

Few writers/artists have had as much of an impact on the Man of Steel's legacy as Dan Jurgens. Dan has been working on Superman comics since the late 80s/early 90s, and has continued writing and illustrating Superman stories to this day. In today's CELEBRATING SUPERMAN episode, Dan joins Shawn to discuss how he got started writing Superman, his favorite Superman stories, his 2024 visit to the set of James Gunn's new film, and, of course, the legendary DEATH OF SUPERMAN issue, which was both written and illustrated by him.
Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for May 15, 2025 is: impervious im-PER-vee-us adjective Impervious describes that which does not allow something (such as water or light) to enter or pass through. It is also used formally to mean “not bothered or affected by something.” Both senses of impervious are usually used with to. // The material is impervious to water. // The mayor seems impervious to criticism. See the entry > Examples: “All of this ups the already sky-high stakes for ‘Superman,' which relaunches the DC Universe under the direction of Gunn and Peter Safran. The film is the studio's best hope at fielding a billion-dollar blockbuster in 2025, but even the Man of Steel isn't impervious to box office Kryptonite.” — Rebecca Rubin, Variety, 17 Jan. 2025 Did you know? Finding your way through some words' etymologies can lead to surprising discoveries of origins that seemingly have little to do with their modern-day meanings. Impervious, which entered English in the early 1600s, is not one of those words—its history is entirely straightforward. The Latin ancestor of impervious is impervius, which adds the prefix im-, meaning “not,” to pervius, meaning “passable or penetrable.” Pervius in turn comes from per, meaning “through,” and via, meaning “way.” Impervious, it follows, describes things that don't allow a way through something, whether literally (as in “asphalt, concrete, and other surfaces that are impervious to rain”) or figuratively (as in “impervious to criticism/pressure”). The opposite of impervious, pervious, entered English at around the same time, but it is much less common.
