Jace and Rocky breakdown the DC Comics titles for the week of April 9, 2025. Aquaman breaks free of his bonds and looks to face the beign resposible for his imprisonment and rescure Atlantis. Meanwhile, from the wreckage of the planet Thanager a god emereges but will he be a savior to the Thanagarians or spell ddom for the remnants of the Red Lantern Corps. Fire and Ice have switched powers, but that is not all that may be different by the end of the issue. We also see Superman up against an unfamilair foe, but one DC fans will recognize. In Batman and Robin, we have some incredible character work that informs the relationship of Bruce and his father with a level of emotion and depth not seen before. Finally in Absolute Batman, the relationship Bruce has with his friends from crime alley is examined in more depth as he is faced with a new villain who is terrifying. It brings just the right amount of horror to a book, that so far, has been all out action. Join us for our thoughts on these titles and more!
We liked it, so we put a ring on it! Chamar and Andrew are back with yet another iconic DC story being put on the animation table with the 2022 film Green Lantern: Beware My Power. In this Sweet or Sour episode, our favorite Green Lantern John Stewart finally gets a feature length film showing his origin story when he is thrown headfirst into a galactic war between Hawkgirl and the Thanagarians against Adam Strange and the Rannians.As always, we are here to ask the big questions: Does the story make sense? How does it compare to the comic? And most importantly, has the film remained sweet, or has it soured over time?Also, follow Yet Another DC Animated Podcast on social media or check us out at Forgotten Entertainment.

Rip returns the team to 2016, unwilling to let them continue with his mission, but they insist on seeing it through. Kendra leaves a message for the team alerting them to Savage's presence in 1944 France, but they are unable to stop him and can rescue only Carter. Savage reveals that the Thanagarians sent three meteors to ancient Egypt. He plans to use Kendra's and Carter's blood to activate the meteors' alien technology and erase time back to 1700 BC, where he will rule. Dr. Stein deduces Savage's method: to conduct the same ritual across three separate time periods, creating a paradox that will facilitate time's destruction. He also concludes that radiation from all three meteors will render Savage mortal, so anyone can kill him. The team breaks up into pairs—Mick and Ray, Sara and Firestorm, and Rip and Carter—and travel to 1958, 1975, and 2021, respectively. All three groups kill Savage. Ray and Firestorm destroy their meteors, and Rip uses the Waverider to send the last meteor into the sun before it explodes and destroys the Earth. Kendra and Carter stay behind in 2016 while the others decide to help Rip protect the timeline. Before they leave 2016, however,Rex Tyler arrives and warns the team of their impending death.
