I am not a big fan of boy scout type characters, so Superman is not one of my favorites. That may change now that Grant Morrison is taking him in a different direction. I can't wait to see how Superman operates in the gray areas of morality. Publisher Description (W) Grant Morrison (A) Mikel Janin (CA) Bryan Hitch Sometimes even Superman finds a task almost impossible. Sometimes even the Last Son of Krypton needs to enlist help. Some tasks require methods and heroes that don't scream Justice League. So Clark Kent, the Metropolis Marvel, seeks out Manchester Black, the most dastardly of rogues, to form an all-new Authority tasked with taking care of some business on the sly. Not only will Black know the right candidates for the team, but if Superman can make him behave himself and act in service of the greater good, then he'll prove literally anyone can be a hero! They'll have to move quickly, however, as the Ultra-Humanite forms his own team to take out the Man of Steel. This new limited series helps launch an all-new Superman status quo, setting up story elements that reverberate across both Action Comics and Superman: Son of Kal-El in the months to come. And not only is Superman putting together a superstar team, but it takes superstars to tell the tale: Grant Morrison (The Green Lantern, All-Star Superman) and Mikel Janin (Batman, Future State: Superman: Worlds of War)!

Jace and Rocky From Comic Boom! spotlight the DC titles for the week of July 20, 2021. We get the origin of Melinda Zucco in the pages of Nightwing #82 and talks about the problem with ret-cons. Rocky seems to really like the idea of Dick Grayson having a sister though especially because there seems to be more to her than we know. Blue & Gold #1 is a real highlight with the whole creative team giving their all to make this a spectacular issue. Shazam #1 expands on some of the story points we have seen for Billy Batson in the pages of Teen Titans Academy and also hints at some of the events of Future State. Supergirl Woman of Tomorrow reminds us of the trauma Supergirl has endured in her life and explains how she might connect so closely with Ruthye and the losses both of them have suffered from. Justice League #65 brings a shocking revelation that is sure to have people talking, but is it necessary and will it be remembered? Only time will tell. The back-up Justice League Dark story continues to outshine the main story though and both have great art. In the pages of Catwoman we finally get the long-anticipated fight between Selina and Father Valley, thought the outcome may surprise a lot of readers. Flash #772 feels in some ways like a return to normalcy in Rocky's eyes and he is all for it. Wally West fans have been waiting for this a long time as Wally is back and finally headlining the Flash book. Superman and the Authority is an intriguing start to the story and Grant Morrison shows that Manchester Black is in good hands, as the legendary comic scribe absolutely nails the characterization of the psychotic telekinetic. Finally in the pages of Superman Red & Blue #5 we get the single best issue of the series so far. Every story is good to great with a couple of the narratives award worthy. An absolute must-read.

This week on the podcast Bryan Dressel, Nick "Superman" Friedemann, and Matt "Manchester Black" Dykes talk "Bright Lights, Dean City" the brother episode to last week's episode. Short review: Bryan is not a huge fan of it. He just "likes it" like Nick "liked" last week's episode. At least there are some great recurring gags to make things better.

IN THIS EPISODE, #lames break up scene and a cacophony of farts... And Lena Luthor wears a Lady Suit.  Slays the internet.  SHOW NOTES  Welcome back to another episode of What About Dat? TV RECAP AND REVIEW   My names Jen   I’m Sara   We are so excited to be here today talking the most recent episodes of Supergirl. But first...   Today we have a “WHY WYNONNA” UPDATE. Jen & Sara - And now it’s time for the Salty Supergirl Review... EW..EW..EW (EFFECT)    Sara - It’s been five episode since we last recaped Supergirl. We are currently deep into the second part of the Season. Supergirl has returned, and story and plot feel stronger than it has in years.   I want to start off with Menagerie which created the first part of our most recent ark. This episode introduced the villainess Menagerie, a Jewel thief who happens to have an Alien snake logged in the back of her neck. In this episode we see rise of the Sons of Liberty as well as the gradual formation of the Elite. A group of anti-facist terrorist under the direction of Manchester Black.   Sara - The most important thing to happen in this episode was break up of James and Lena. #lames   Jen - Because it’s the Salty Supergirl Review... I’m gonna go full organic pink Himalayan smelling salts on this one.   Play the #lames Break Scene & Underscored by Fart Sounds   Jen - What did I feel when I saw this scene in my eyes? Gratification, Salty, Anger, Dumbfounded, like it’s been a long cold winter. And now, Supercorp can now come out for the Spring, rejuvenated and dressed in matching three-piece lady suits. I also felt confused because really, if #lames break up felt more like a transaction then an emotional loss. They literally broke up over Lena working for the government.   It was never addressed the fact that these two characters are fundamentally not good for each other. They brought the worse out of each other.  James became more annoyingly self righteous. Lena was regaled to arm candy whilst James used his shield to save her from shit she never need saving from before. Lena the smartest person in the entire shows was constantly defending her sense of morality to James. He did petty shit like not showing up for live interviews that Lena scheduled for him to do. And giving Lena hell over dressing him in gray suits, #Lames made me dislike gray suits and trivia pursuit.   They gave us cringe inducing flirtation and senseless banter delivered with forced nuance and zero chemistry.   They gave us moments of hollow declarations of love followed by angry fights and accusations of lying.   James begrudged Lena for keeping him out of Jail.   Lena felt out of place at Catco because really she only bought the damn thing for Kara.   #lames is the end of another toxic poorly written and terrible arched plot line that took two likable characters and reduced them to their worse "Selves," making a point about exactly nothing. #lames is dead. I’m methodically salting the television space it lived in. Beat...  ... And Now it’s time for the "Wardrobe of the Week."  Jingle  Sara - Now that #Lames has broken up. Like ELSA from Frozen The Wardrobe Department has decided to LET IT GO! And unleashed the non-binary spectrum on Lena Luthor’s clothing choices by giving us LENA LUTHOR IN A 3-PIECE LADYSUIT. And slaying twitter for a full week. My feed is literally just  screenshots of "Lena in the suit" I’ll put some of these Screen-shots in the show-notes so you can enjoy them.   Okay, I think this is good time for "TWITTERISMS!!!" Jingle  In an effort to reach across the Supergirl fandom and bring people together we’ve gathered some of the best tweets off line. This week’s theme is Lena Luthor in a Lady Suit. Oh boy, it’s a doozy, we've got a lot of ground to cover. Twitterisms...       Okay, and to finish off the day I’m going to talk the Highs and Lows of Supergirl over the span of the last six episodes. Speaking to the things, I liked and disliked about each characters artistic direction.   Let’s Start with the Highs Jon and Manchester Black - Rivalry Thought this was a really well arched and pace the bween two strong men with opposing views of world order. I loved the extent in which Manchester Black got under Jonn’s skin. I was thoroughly surprised by the outcomes of this feud especially as each episode Manchester Black was able to out maneuver Jon and Supergirl.   I would like to see this character back in the future as an ongoing nemesis for Jon. My favorite lines this entire season came from Jon. It was after he Kills Manchester Black and is holding the Legion ring. “He says something along the lines that, he is not a man of peace.” I loved the way this was worded and how it summarized this entire plot line.   The Manchester Black and Jon stuff is a good example of pacing and subplot that adds to the overall story while not detracting screen time from Supergirl's storyline. I give this subplot a A-     Brainy and Nia Nal - (Romance)   Not gonna Lie this Brainy and Nia Nal budding romance is so so good. Nia Nals jounery into dreamer, earlier this year we met Nia Nals family. AKA, Santa Barbara hippies  who weave their own hemp baskets so they can take their home grown veggies to the farmers market in. Nia’s mother recently died and her sister was deeply disappointed to have not received the powers. From this storyline I would love to see Nia’s sister come live in National City and interact with the Supergirl crew on a pedestrian level. She’d be someone who is strictly at Kara’s for game night. And when game night is interrupted by crime and everyone has to peace out and go fight monsters then she’s the one putting away the onion dip and subdividing the trivia pursuit cards back into categories   Nia Nals evolution in the Dreamer, it feels like it’s coming slightly too easily. I love the idea of her as a sidekick but sometimes it feels like its all a little too easy. Or maybe, here’s an idea. Every also knows that Nia Nal is Dreamer.   The only person on the show who doesn’t know either Kara or Nia’s identity is Lena Luthor. Clark Kent always had work as an obstacle. He had to get away from his boss to fight crime. But, in this case James knows Nia is Dreamer and Kara is Supergirl and is totally fine with them taking half days for crime.   I’m giving the Dreamer stuff a B- And the Brainy ad Nia Nal romance a B+   I think Jesse Rath adds so many levels to Brainiac. I find myself enjoying everything about Brainiac. What makes him compelling is a character who is all deductive skill is so well balanced with empathy and vunerable, it makes him a better superhero. Yes, brainiac is still assigned the role of WINNING, which is when a side character is too smart for their own good and solves earth shattering crisis on ipad in like two-seconds. You see versions of this character all over the Arrow-verse: Cisco, Winn, Felicity, Lena Luthor does it as well. Anyway, The character of Brainiac has really managed to evolve past the trope into something unique and fun to watch. Giving him A   Betrayal of Eve TessMacher - First of all this character has the best name.   Eve hijacked a naval ship most boss and Natasha scene ever on Supergirl. -It’s super fun seeing Eve be evil. I thought she was a one off character and i’m pleasantly  surprised by her development. I’m left to wonder if Lex and Eve conjugated that conjugal visit. Eve Tessmachner reminds me a little of Harley Quinn. She is one character who is a villain that I would like to see end up with powers from the Harun-El.   Lex Luthor as a Villain -   Strong intro musical intro. The Jail Scene “MY WAY” Jon Cryer balances empathy and sociopath. It’s so compelling and as audience we can understand why Lena Luthor keeps falling for the same old trick.   Lena Luthor   Lena Luthor has now been at Catco and the DEO. I think she is most compelling and in her element when she is at L-Corp and would love a return of storylines in her natural habitat. Lena Luthor need to spend less time as a roving boss and more time at her L-Corp desk brooding. She needs to wear more power pant suits, have bourbon stored in Austrian crystal decanters, and taking work lunches with Kara on the L-Couch. For being a woman who has L-Corp bugged with cameras and highest security with trapped doors that can be DIY open by hairpins. She needs to either fire all her securities and hire news or just stop having assistants period. Or Hire Alex full time as a bodyguard.   Lastly, I’m not so sure about Alex’s new love interest. I mean if you're not going to go with Supercorp as a core couple. The show should use what they have and embrace AgentCorp. You don’t have write anything that isn’t already present. People would love it. Lena Luthor - Is like Lucy and Charlie Brown with the football. The Football representations the love and validation she seeks. Lex and Her mother are like Lucy baiting her into a false sense of security and then pulling away the football at the last moment.   Kara Danvers - Alex Danvers mind wipe that lead to her not knowing Kara is Supergirl. Is weighing down the plot more than it’s helping to move things along.   Alex - So far this season has been about her evolution into DEO director. Although, as she embraced her authority she found herself outranked by General Hailey.   It seems that General Hailey is independent thinker and not entirely the government hack that we all thought her to be in the beginning. Though, I think we all her saw her true colors when she brought pie to work for thanksgiving. Can’t be an evil General if you bring pie to the office.   James - Overall this character connects a lot of the supergirl world together. But the actor has no chemistry with the women he is set up with. His tv coma was a plot device within a plot device use to progress the story of Lex Luthor's acquire the Harun-EL. The TV Coma did not feel like there was high enough stakes. I never got the impression that James was gonna be in real peril. I didn’t buy in. I guess it was because of the the pacing, James was in a tv coma for less than 24 hours and than was shot in the chest al la Pulp fiction style.   Side note _ I feel like this actor struggles with this part. I’m not sure what it is but I find his choices so boring. Is it the writing or the actor? I’m gonna say actor. Because there’s a lot of questionable plot-lines that happen on this high fantasy superpowered show. Like the time Rhea plucked hair from Lena and Mon-El to conjugate a hair baby. In her scenes, Teri Hatcher delivered her devious plan completely committed to the moment. And I was like Oh shit, we getting a hairbaby season 3. I feel a false sense of vunerability when this actor is doing an emotional scene. Like a lack of connection to the material itself.   He now assumably has superpowers which I’m going to put in the category of confused. Guardian’s whole deal is that he is a superhero without powers. He beats up back alley weed dealers, the homeless, and punk teenagers who sass him. That’s where we like you James. Being thrown through glass windows. That’s your forte. Let’s look at Legends of Tomorrow. Half of them don’t have powers and they are still valued members of the team.   Jame’s sister. Kelly or Sister Olsen - She’s a new character and she’s a psychologist. You know what? That is an actual useful role. Lena Luthor, Kara, Alex, Jon, Brainiac, Nial in that order need so much fucking therapy. You could make the argument that the capacity to express and release blocks is a superpower within itself. So I welcome the new Olsen. Looking forward, to more of this character. Pacing - Overall, the pace of the show is either slow or at break neck speed. This most recent episode reminded me of the Ben Lockwood backstory episode.   - We spent a lot of time see Lex’s side of the story and everything he’s been plotting for the  entire season. The pacing felt incredibly fast and one thing I kept wondering long after the episode ended was:   Now that Lex Luthor has the Harun-EL and Superpowers? Why does he need Russian Supergirl so badly?   I was under the impression he was against embracing any alien with powers greater than a human. Now that he has powers why not just give a blood transfusion to Otis Graves?   The Russian or Russian Red Daughter Storyline is finally set into play. After being teased all season. I like the new supergirl suit.   - Russian Supergirl is like lost “stranger in strange land” She’s like little baby dov She’s being manipulated Alex. Lex Luthor. Is not really a true villain.   Predictions:      Lex Luthor will become president of the United States. Alex will end the season going into the finale on the run and no longer director the DEO. As much as everyone already ships Russian Supergirl love for Lena. I think Russian Supergirl is either gonna be killed by Lex Luthor or End up living happily ever after, on another planet with Nikal the little boy Otis Graves saves, who is the walking metaphor of Russian's Supergirl's innocences lost.   Gonna give this episodes scale of 1-10 - 7 ½ because somethings work and some do not.

What do you do when the 'bad guys' are out there stomping fascists? Tune in as we dig into our feelings on Manchester Black's (not too) complicated morality. Plus we have more Arrow, Flash, and Black Lightning to dissect! Arrow - s07e14 The Flash - s05e15 Supergirl - s04e13 Black Lightning - s02e14

Another great episode but can anyone explain why Kara left the Fortress hide a key under a snow rock exposed next to the keyhole?  Clark needs to come back and repossess his property! This week we get another exciting episode as Manchester Black continues to ramp up the mayhem with his Elite, Lena digs deeper into her project, under some deadline that is driving her to isolate and singularly focus, Dreamer stays ramped up on 10, and J'onn struggles with going HAM vs keeping his promise to remain peaceful.  Brainy rallies the alien troops for a peaceful protest against Ben Lockwood's MAGA rally, and a shocking ending leaves The Doctor dropping a theory on Shanna that leaves her a little speechless.   Like what you hear?

Tim and Frank reunite to talk Manchester Black, Agent Liberty, President TRON, and everything that was “What’s So Funny About Truth, Justice, and the American Way?” Proud member of the Thought Bubble Audio Network and DC TV Talk!

Hoy en una oportunidad muy especial les acercamos el primer encuentro del Club de Lectura (algún día le pondremos nombre ¿Por qué no?) y como habíamos anunciado se lo dedicamos a “WHAT´S SO FUNNY ABOUT TRUTH, JUSTICE AND THE AMERICAN WAY?” una breve obra que creemos comprime en pocas páginas todo lo que está bien con el bueno de Superman. Nos alegró mucho contar con el apoyo y la participación de muchos de ustedes, posta. Los invitamos a que si tienen mas comentarios los compartan en los comentarios y que si tienen recomendaciones sobre que les gustaría que leamos nos las manden (imaginamos que en un par de semanas ya van a tener noticias de como sigue esto). Entre otras cosas charlamos: -Un rápido repaso del comic - ¿De qué trata el comic? La violencia como respuesta a la frustración. Los valores que defiende Superman como alternativa a esto. El problema de pensar en términos maniqueístas (malos vs. buenos). Superman como respuesta a el cinismo. -¿Por qué era tan importante para Manchester Black “quebrar” a Superman? ¿Qué era lo que realmente quería? -El problema del “american way” y un probable punto ciego de los norteamericanos.

Primer entrega del Club de Lectura donde charlamos sobre "What's So Funny About Truth, Justice & the American Way?". Superman se enfrenta a mucho mas que un nuevo grupo que lo amenaza en poder ¿Es su apuesta por la paz anticuada? ¿Los nuevos tiempos exigen un nuevo tipo de héroe mas violento, "dispuesto a todo"? ¿Podemos dividir al mundo entre buenos y malos? ¿Cual es el motivo que lleva a Manchester Black a querer "quebrar" a Superman? ¿Cual es el lugar de la esperanza hoy en día en un mundo cada vez mas cínico? ¿Cual es la relación entre violencia y frustración? No se pierdan este podcast donde debatimos como el símbolo que lleva en el pecho se pone en cuestión como nunca.

Next, we learn Nora's superhero name is XS, which is a nickname Barry gave her as a kid. Somehow, Nora has gotten herself stuck in the present-day, and Barry is concerned she could “Marty Mcfly herself out of existence.” https://www.cbr.com/the-flash-season-5-trailer-sdcc/ The Flash Casts Chris Klein As Season 5's Big Villain (Date: 21 July 2018) Chris Klein, known for his roles in Election and American Pie, will play the primary antagonist in the upcoming fifth season of The Flash. The actor will portray Central City's newest menace, the DC supervillain Cicada. Introduced in 2001 by Geoff Johns and Scott Kolins in The Flash #170, the Cicada of the comics is David Hersch who was filled with regret after murdering his wife when he was struck by lightning. As a result, he gained the ability to absorb the life-force of others, allowing him to dramatically extend his life. Believing he was somehow linked to The Flash by the similar accidents in which they gained their powers, Hersch founded a cult whose members were dedicated to murdering everyone the Scarlet Speedster ever saved, using lightning bolt-shaped daggers. As the result of a vision, Hersch believed that the energy from all the people The Flash saved, and from the hero himself, would allow him to resurrect his dead wife. https://www.cbr.com/flash-season-5-chris-klein-cicada/ Supergirl Adds Fan-Favorite Legionnaire as TV's First Transgender Superhero (Date: 21 July 2018) The CW's Supergirl has cast transgender activist Nicole Maines as television's first trans superhero, in a role that appears to introduce another member of DC's Legion of Super-Heroes to the drama. Maines will play Nia Nal, a new addition to the CatCo reporting team described as “a soulful young transgender woman with a fierce drive to protect others.” Her Season 4 story arc will see her fulfill her destiny as Dreamer. https://www.cbr.com/supergirl-tv-transgender-hero/ Supergirl Casts DC's Manchester Black For Season 4 (Date: 21 July 2018) The CW's Supergirl will borrow again from the Man of Steel's sprawling supporting cast to introduce DC antihero/villain Manchester Black in Season 4. David Ajala (Doctor Who, The Dark Knight) has been cast in a recurring role as “the type of guy who brings a knife to a gunfight and still walks away the winner. With a dark past, he easily deflects the brutality of his mission with his charm and sense of humor.” https://www.cbr.com/supergirl-season-4-manchester-black/ ‘Supergirl': Lynda Carter to Return as President Marsdin in Season 4 (Date: 22 July 2018) Lynda Carter will be returning to The CW series reprising the role of President Olivia Marsdin who was last seen in the season two episode "Resist". http://comicbook.com/dc/2018/08/01/exclusive-dc-preview-plastic-man-3/ Supergirl Casts Star Trek: The Next Generation's Brent Spiner (Date: 01 Aug 2018) Brent Spiner, beloved for his roles on Star Trek: The Next Generation and in Independence Day, has joined the upcoming fourth season of The CW's Supergirl in a recurring role. He'll play the “adept and politically minded” Vice President Baker, described as an unlikely leader who “steps up in a big way when his country needs him most.” https://www.cbr.com/supergirl-brent-spiner-season-4/ Supergirl Adds Superman Mythos' Otis, Villain Mercy Graves for S4 (Date: 28 July 2018) The CW's Supergirl is set to welcome some new villainous players to National City. The DC villain Mercy Graves is coming on-board the series… and she won't be coming alone: she'll be bringing her brother Otis along with her. Rohna Mitra has been cast in the recurring role of Mercy Graves. On Supergirl, Mercy will be “stepping out of the Luthor shadow and running her own show,” according to the character description. “With her biting wit and lethal brawn, Mercy steadily becomes a key figure in National City's growing ‘human-first' movement.” https://www.cbr.com/supergirl-season-4-mercy-graves-otis/ Kevin Smith to Direct 'Supergirl' Season 4 Episode (Date: 29 July 2018) Kevin Smith revealed that he's returning to direct a new episode for the Girl of Steel's fourth season, in a year where Kara Danvers will go up against anti-metahuman sentiments, new villains, and a former ally of Lex Luthor. http://comicbook.com/dc/2018/07/29/supergirl-kevin-smith-directing-season-4/ CONSTANTINE: CITY OF DEMONS Animated Feature Trailer, Release Date And Blu-Ray Cover Art Revealed (Date: 31 July 2018) Produced by Warner Bros. Animation, Blue Ribbon Content and DC Entertainment, the action-packed movie will be distributed by Warner Bros. Home Entertainment starting October 9, 2018 on Ultra HD Blu-ray Combo Pack, Blu-ray Combo Pack and Digital. A decade after a tragic mistake, family man Chas and occult detective John Constantine set out to cure Chas's daughter Trish from a mysterious supernatural coma. With the help of the mysterious Nightmare Nurse, the influential Queen of Angels, and brutal Aztec God Mictlantecuhtli, the pair just might have a chance at outsmarting the demon Beroul to save Trish's soul. In a world of shadows and dark magic, not everything is what it seems, and there's always a price to pay. The path to redemption is never easy, and if Constantine is to succeed, he must navigate through the dark urban underbelly of Los Angeles, outwit the most cunning spawns of hell, and come face to face with arch-nemesis Nergal – all while battling his own inner demons! https://www.comicbookmovie.com/constantine/constantine-city-of-demons-animated-feature-trailer-release-date-and-blu-ray-cover-art-revealed-a162598 ARROW CAST & INTERVIEWS:   Matt Ryan - SDCC 2018 Exclusive Interview (Date: 01 Aug 2018) http://comicbook.com/2018/08/01/video-matt-ryan-sdcc-2018-exclusive-interview/ Maisie Richardson-Sellers - SDCC 2018 Exclusive Interview (Date: 01 Aug 2018) http://comicbook.com/2018/08/01/video-maisie-richardson-sellers-sdcc-2018-exclusive-interview/ NEXT EPISODE   Link to Promo: (Date: 19 Feb 2018) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xnC0BDZa_aM   Episode: “The Curse of the Earth Totem” [Season 3 Episode 12] Air Date: Monday, February 26, 2018 Summary: While Sara takes some private time, the Legends follow a lead on the whereabouts of the Earth Totem and find themselves in 1717 on the hunt for Blackbeard's treasure.
